Originally published on August 5, 2011 My meatloaf always has a terrible way of drying out so the night I made this recipe I was looking for a way to keep it especially moist. With the extra bread crumbs and the cream, this recipe definitely hit the mark – and it’s the best meat loaf I’ve ever […]

Delicious Drumsticks
Originally published on August 7, 2011 Shake N’ Bake was always one of my favourite meals as a kid and this is a version that’s just like it, but tastes much better. When you make it yourself you don’t have to worry about the added sodium, additives, and preservatives, and it just tastes so much […]
Chocolate Chocolate Cupcakes
Originally published on August 10, 2011 These may seem like simple chocolate cupcakes, but they’re cupcakes that I’m especially proud of – because they’re officially the first baking recipe that I created entirely myself! The buttercream icing I have made before, and it is an actual recipe that I got from somewhere. But I’ve been […]
Emeril’s Homemade Ricotta
Originally published on September 25, 2011 Emeril has always been an inspiration to me, mostly because he shows how easy and how fun cooking can be! He does that once again with this recipe for Ricotta Cheese, from one of my most favourite cookbooks, From Emeril’s Kitchens. The book features signature dishes from his most famous restaurants, and this recipe […]
Emeril’s Brown Butter, Sage, and Mushroom Stuffing
Originally published on October 12, 2011 Being that my younger daughter’s birthday falls right around the same time as Thanksgiving, I usually have the honour of combining her birthday party with Thanksgiving dinner. I love preparing it, and I always try to find one or two new great recipes to pull out for the big […]
Giada’s Zeppole
Originally published on October 14, 2011 I was watching The Chew today, a new show I’ve become obsessed with, and Mario Batali made Zeppole. With it being National Dessert Day (and because they looked so good on the TV,) I decided that I needed to make them for dessert after supper tonight. I quickly went to The Chew’s website […]
Peanut Butter Cookies with Crunchy Peanut Topping
Originally published on October 22, 2011 I often eat peanut butter cookies for breakfast, on the suggestion of my mother, actually. While it might not seem like a traditional breakfast, it gives me that little bit of protein that I need to get me through until lunch, and doesn’t make me feel stuffed, something that’s […]
Sticky Sweet Chocolate Brownies
Originally published on October 28, 2011 It’s National Chocolate Day, and I thought what better way to mark the day then with chocolate – on top of chocolate! That’s exactly what these brownies are all about, getting as much chocolate on your plate as possible! I like to make the ganache thin so you can […]
Julia Child’s Boeuf Bourguignon
Originally published on November 5, 2011 What can you say about this signature dish from the greatest cook I personally believe has ever walked the planet? I dare not critique this recipe; I will however, tell you a few things I did differently (only out of necessity, I swear, Julia) and where I got the […]
Cream of Asparagus Soup
Originally published on November 17, 2011 When I was trying to get some ideas on how to make the very best Cream of Asparagus Soup by searching online, it didn’t take me long to find out that there are about a zillion ways to make this dish (just like anything else, right?) Unfortunately, there weren’t […]
