Copycat Popeye’s Chicken Sandwich
Okay, this is seriously good! I’ve never had a Popeye’s chicken sandwich.. and I suppose I never have to now that I know how to make this baby! I’ll call it the ‘Big Lynda’ after Mary Brown’s ‘Big Mary’! I’ll never have to go there again either! I made this with a deboned chicken thigh […]
Homemade Chicken Stock
As I started reading up on this, I realized it wasn’t as tough as I thought it might be. Considering I roast a chicken at least once a week, so I’m buying a whole chicken anyway… why toss out the unused parts? With further research, ideas started coming to me. If I have a whole […]
Salted Caramel Sauce
This is very good and it was fun using a candy thermometer! Next time I’ll use a smaller pot as the thermometer didn’t touch the sauce! I had to tip the pot to get it all on one side to make it deeper! I WILL use a copper pot every time I make this as […]
Salted Caramel Apple Pear Pie
It was fun making this pie!! For me, it’s a two day event. I make the pie dough one day, put it in the fridge.. you could do the caramel ahead of time too, then just do the filling and put it together the next day. It all depends on your time. It is time […]
Beef Brisket & Homemade Alabama White Sauce
I have no words.. the brisket… the sauce and some coleslaw, absolutely fantastic!! Brine for three days, low oven for 8 hours. Alabama White Sauce: (I halved it) 2 cups mayonnaise 1/2 cup prepared horseradish 1⁄4 cup apple cider vinegar 3 tbsp sugar 2 tsp yellow mustard 3 tsp kosher salt 2 tsp ground black […]
Chicken Donairs ~ My Way
These were very good! The wraps are soft and easy to bite into. The ‘donair’ sauce I used is the following one (without the evaporated milk) I found 2 tbsp of garlic powder to be a bit too much, I’d cut back to 1.5 tbsp next time. It’s supposed to keep well in the fridge. […]
Creamy Panfried Lemon Chicken
This is an amazing meal, served with dirty mashed (garlic and cream cheese) potatoes. The chicken is thin and cooks fast, this meal can come together in 30 minutes, and well worth it. 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts. Filet into three or if that’s not doable, into 2 and pound to the same thinness. 1/3 […]
Caramel Creme Brûlée Pie
This is the fast version… it’s not really ‘real’ cream brûlée such as the one I made by Julia Child, but this was surprisingly GREAT. Word of caution, it’s rich!! Make sure you have something physical to do after you eat this!! It takes a long time to set. I think part of the problem […]
Maple Sugar & Cream Pie
Greg and I both looked at it when it came out of the oven and said, ‘it looks interesting!’ and it is! Next time I will not fully cook the pie crust as it has to bake for a further 45 minutes, and I will cut down on the cinnamon as I think it was […]
Chicken & Spaghetti Provincial
I can’t even begin to describe how good this sauce is. It’s creamy, and elegant, and I’m sure would be wonderful on spaghetti, which we will try tomorrow and likely even better made into chicken lasagna, which I will certainly do as well. It’s company worthy!! For now into the fridge it goes to build […]
Cheddar Cheese & Raisin Sourdough Bread
I love having raisin bread with cheddar cheese, so why not put them both in the sourdough.. less fuss in the morning trying to find the cheese and raisins! This is the sourdough recipe I make every other day.. for us, it tastes best and is really never fail. Trust me when I say I […]
Sourdough Date Breakfast Bread
With each bite you’ll like it more and more, until you can’t stop thinking about it and go back for more!! It’s not like bread, it’s not like banana bread, it’s taste is unique and delicious! It’s very worth making. Is that good grammar?
Dillicious Roast
This is going to sound odd when you read over the ingredients! But wow, it’s amazing…. and don’t be afraid when you see the first picture of the meat, it’s been in a lemon pepper marinade for 3 hours, and that’s just what happens! I was short on time, so I took a sirloin tip […]
Waffles in McClary Waffle Iron
These were great, or so says Greg, I didn’t try them, I just have fun cooking them. Preheat griddle on gas stove 2.5 for 10 minutes. When the batter is ready, turn stove off, open the griddle and spray each side with baking pam spray, put back on heat, turn up to gas stove 3. […]
Salted Caramel & Apple Galette
So I burnt the sugar for the salted caramel drizzle!! I’m glad I tasted it before I added it here to the apple galette. Lesson learned, always taste… plus that’s the fun part, as long as you’re not tasting burnt sugar, that was seriously terrible!! I’m going to try this again with a cream cheese […]
Banana Cream Pie
It’s complicated!! HA! But I got through it and it’s a dreamy, creamy pie to eat. The crust tastes like a shortbread cookie with chocolate on it. I think it’s my favourite pie yet. That’s not whipped cream on top that is all banana cream filling! If you want the recipe, let me know!! I’m […]
Lynda’s Crumble Berry Cream Cheese Pie
If you look at enough pie recipes, you can piece together what you find to make one amazing pie! That’s what I did here to come up with this unique pie. Cream cheese on the bottom, blueberry and walnut streusel. It’s a bit crumby, but the taste is there!!! Delicious! Walnut Streusel (enough for one pie) […]
Banana Custard Pie
This is a VERY good pie. Greg said it’s the best yet! I’ll take that!! It’s as smooth as silk. The banana flavour is infused using this method of using a fork to pierce the bananas, sprinkle nutmeg over them and bake at 350 for 25 minutes. Take it out, let it cool slightly, remove […]
Dutch Apple Pie with Sour Cream Custard
I was pretty mad when I was baking this pie and discovered the recipe (in a BOOK) had the wrong temperature stated in it!!??? How does that even happen? But now that I’ve eaten it, I’m simply MAD ABOUT THIS PIE!!!! It’s terrific. Somehow I managed to save it by re-baking it with the topping […]
Pear Pie & Salted Carmel Sauce
This amazing pie is from sallysbakingaddiction.com/caramel-pear-pie/ It’s REALLY good!! You need to do three things here, make the pie dough, put it in the fridge to chill, then make the carmel (It’s truly hard to stop licking it off your spoon or fingers) and once you have everything ready, get your pears ready. Make sure […]
