How have I gone this long without telling you this??? This Instant Pot Jasmine Rice is hands-down my favourite rice. And I make a LOT of rice. Whether it’s for soup, fried rice, rice bowls or salads, I make rice multiple times a week. This is my favourite way to […]
Side Dishes
Risotto al Limone
…with Parmesan and Vermouth. What if I don’t have vermouth? Can I still make this? Of course you can my friend! Read on…. I made this Risotto al Limone with Vermouth instead of white wine and let me tell you why… it is currently dry January in my house. I […]
Golden Roasted Beets with Cherries & Tarragon Brown Butter Vinaigrette
These Golden Roasted Beets are about to be your new favourite side. I’m willing to bet that even the beet haters will like this one. Well, maybe not the beet haters, but definitely the beet dislikers. Why, you ask? Golden beets are milder, sweeter and a little less “earthy” tasting […]
Honey Sriracha Brussels Sprouts
These Honey Sriracha Brussels Sprouts are quite possibly the best sprouts I’ve ever had. And in the words of Junie B. Jones (Moms and little girls will know who that is)… ‘that’s not bragging, you can ask anyone’. You know when you go to a restaurant and they make those […]
Balsamic Roasted Tomatoes
These low and slow Balsamic Roasted Tomatoes absolutely explode with flavour, are ridiculously easy to make and are good on pretty much anything. In the end I used these to make something amazing that I’ll tell you about soon. In the beginning I ate a lot of them straight from […]
Joss’s Green Chile & Beer Savoury Baked Beans
My girl and I created this savoury baked beans recipe together last year when I was making ribs for some guests and I needed a vegetarian dish for her and planned on making some homemade baked beans. That was the moment I found out that she thinks sweet baked beans […]
Indian Fire-Roasted Tomato Rice
Hoo boy do I ever love this tomato rice. I made a big batch of it for dinner with those chicken skewers I made a few days ago (linked at the bottom of the page) and then I just didn’t stop eating it. I’m still eating it. And just FYI, […]
Southwest Salad with Jalapeño Lime Vinaigrette and Honey Butter Cornbread Croutons
When life gives you leftover cornbread… well it wasn’t “life” exactly, it was my mother-in-law who made us some amazing cornbread and because it was too good to waste I did what any sensible person would do… I fried it in butter and threw it in a Southwest Salad! This […]
Asparagus with Smoked Gouda, Brown Butter & Walnuts
Who doesn’t love asparagus? My kids, that’s who. But the good news is that my husband and I got to pretty much devour this whole dish by ourselves. And holy yum is it good. A super fast and easy asparagus recipe that’s buttery and cheesy with a little crunch from […]
Crispy Feta & Dill Quinoa Patties with Avocado Buttermilk Ranch
When life gives you leftover quinoa you make these. When life does not give you leftover quinoa you go make some quinoa and make these because they are that good. I first made these as a way to get some extra protein into my veggie daughter and they turned out […]
