Potato, Pepper and Bacon Frittata

Originally published on December 12, 2016 The girls and I love frittatas, me especially. If I don’t have anything for breakfast (or on weekends, for lunch), a frittata is the easiest thing to whip up. And they’re a great way to use up leftovers. For this one I used some home fries I had in the freezer from our last […]

Oreo Cheesecake Stuffed into a Chocolate Cake

Originally published on December 20, 2016 It was hubby’s birthday this week! And while that’s enough excitement in itself, it also meant that it was time again for Oreo cheesecake, something that has become a bit of a tradition in our house. This year though, I wanted to do something a bit different; something more than […]

Mexican Stuffed Chicken

Originally published on January 21, 2017 I’m going to be honest with you. I’m not a huge fan of chicken breasts. I know, I know, the white meat is preferred by many, and KFC will even charge you extra if you ask for a bucket of “all-white” meat. But chicken can already be somewhat boring […]

Tie Dye Cake

Originally published on January 26, 2017 We had a birthday around these parts earlier this month! My older daughter turned 11. 11! How hard is that to believe? Well, probably not so much for you, but for us it just didn’t seem right. The whole time flying by, etc. etc. But I digress, because I’m […]

Frozen Lime Margarita

Originally published on February 7, 2017 The Super Bowl was this past weekend, and we had major celebrations around our house! With just the four of us, there was plenty of food to go around (and some that’s still in our fridge), and we all got pumped (for our different reasons) to cheer on the Atlanta […]

Balsamic Pork Tenderloin

Originally published on February 8, 2017 With very little prep and a short cook time, this Balsamic Pork Tenderloin puts a meal on your table that looks gourmet, and tastes great to boot! I would also like to point out that I love capers. I’m actually kind of obsessed with them right now and try to throw […]

Overnight Bread

Originally published on February 23, 2017 The people in my house love bread. Me? Sure I like it. Ya know, sandwiches are one of my favourite things, and for those, you need bread (that’s right I said sandwiches, not wraps.) But I can certainly go a meal without it, while the others would prefer not to. Luckily for […]

Kale Chips

Originally posted on March 14, 2017 I’ve made kale chips before and to be honest, I wasn’t too thrilled with them. I put them in the oven, toasted and salted them, and out came these little wisps that were no longer green. And they didn’t taste very good either. But, I come armed today with a new […]

Ree’s Sloppy Joes

Originally published on March 18, 2017 My past couple of recipes prove that you never stop learning in the kitchen. First there were the deep-fried kale chips that are a massive improvement on the old roasted ones I had on the site; and today it’s a new and improved Sloppy Joe recipe. Well, it’s new for our […]

Chicken and Potatoes One-Pot Dish

Originally published on March 24, 2017 The girls and I spent a little over a week with my family this past March Break and I did the cooking! Cooking at my childhood home is really no different than cooking at my current home – I still play around with different recipes and try new things. I […]
