Ham, Potatoes & Peppers

Around here, we call this the ‘I hate Greg Dinner’. He hates both ham and scalloped potatoes, therefore I never (well, never say never) make them! However, I had left overs, so I put this together and guess what? He loved it! Me too.. It’s a keeper, so is he! Black forest ham, diced or […]

Stuffed Yorkshire Pudding

This Leftover ‘STUFF’ is amazing!! I make sure there are leftovers so I can purposely make Stuffed Yorkshire Pudding! It’s better than the roast beef dinner from the night before. Using leftovers makes it fast and it’s a 100% sure win every time. The leftovers you’ll need are: Roast beef (slices, chunks, tidbits.. what ever […]

I had left over prime rib (Right? Who has that!! We alway do because I mess it up and it tastes better as a pie the next day! I sautéed some onions and garlic, when they were tender, I added the beef, flour and butter paste, and one package of gravy mix with some stock. […]

Goldilocks Pie Dough

I’ve tried seven different pie dough recipes only to be disappointed! Too tough, too blah, not flakey enough, too flakey, too hard to work with… almost there but not quite right! Well.. I’m done looking. This is (to my taste) the best dough ever. Thank you RockRecipes.com It’s because of you I’ll need a gym […]

Rouladen Beef & Swiss Cheese

For a super quick meal that is tender and extremely tasty, try marinating Rouladen beef in your favourite BBQ sauce, along with flattened garlic cloves (I used 4) and chunky cut onions for at least 4 hours… or over night. Remove from fridge 30 minutes before cooking. Heat skillet, then add butter to cover bottom, […]

Brockville Shepherd’s Pie

  It’s time to clean out the fridge! Carrots, mushrooms and green beans, sauteed in butter until just tender, then diced. Brown beef, add anything you like. I put in left over garlic butter and flour to make a paste for the gravy. Then added onion flakes, a dash of red wine, chopped garlic, ground […]

Garlic Mozzarella Bread

This is amazing!! Fun to make and to eat! We dipped in brushetta. I didn’t use the lactose free cheese, just mozzarella. I also used more butter and added a bit of melted butter so it would spread. (No luck trying to spread ‘softened butter’. ) I likely added more garlic and used chives instead […]

Old Style Raisin Pie

It smells amazing in here! I have tried so many pie crust recipes, and nothing was ‘just right’. This recipe for pie dough so far had checked all my boxes. It was easy (EASY) to work with, it looks flaky and it held my crimping all the way through backing. It looks flakey. I’m tired […]

White Chilli

White Chilli & Chips

This was a surprise! It’s strange to make chilli without it being red. It’s really good! I didn’t have all the ingredients as below, and only wanted enough for one meal for two people (okay really I only had 2 chicken breasts to use…) so I mixed things up a bit as follows. In dutch […]

Chicken Cordon Bleu in Puff Pastry

I love puff pastry!! This chicken was amazing, and juicy!! For the mustard I used a mixture (to taste) of mayo, yellow mustard and white sugar, seems weird but it was very good. I didn’t use all these spices, I just used salt and pepper. The amounts below seem excessive to me, and I like […]

Canadian Eh ~ Butter Tarts

If you want a treat that is dripping with flavour with a super flakey crust… you’ll want to check this out. Evidently there is a long standing discussion about whether or not they should be super dripping or semi dripping. I added 2 eggs as I wanted them firmer, but wow, they take a couple […]
