Cincinnati Chili

November 16, 2015 by Megan 12 Comments

Cincinnati Chili

It was a rainy, cold Saturday when I made this Cincinnati chili. It rained so hard that Bennett’s soccer game was cancelled. And that’s saying a lot, because normally they play “rain or shine”  — which actually means mostly rain, seeing as we are on the west coast of Canada. And you’d think I’d be unfazed by the rain by […]

Chocolate Peanut Butter Marbled Banana Bread #DoYouSpoon

September 25, 2015 by Megan 51 Comments

Chocolate Peanut Butter Marbled Banana Bread #DoYouSpoon

  Chocolate, Peanut Butter, and Banana. Are there any three ingredients more perfect for each other? It’s like the holy trinity of baked goods. When thinking of a recipe using Chocolate Peanut Butter Reese Spreads, adding banana was a no-brainer, but I was having trouble deciding how to best combine them in a recipe. I was telling […]

Snack Ideas with New Reese Spreads #DoYouSpoon

Snack Ideas with New Reese Spreads #DoYouSpoon

Have you seen the new peanut butter chocolate Reese spreads? Or better yet, have you tried them? They recently arrived in major grocery and retail stores across Canada. I notice them every time I’m grocery shopping lately, practically calling my name. I’m a sucker for Reese Peanut Butter Cups, and this new spread is based on them, so […]

Coconut Adobo Macaroni Salad

Coconut Adobo Macaroni Salad

Summer is starting to wind down (booo), but there’s still time to have a few more barbecues and picnics this season before fall comes.  When I’m looking for a good side-dish, I love a good macaroni salad. It goes well with just about any barbecued meats, hot dogs, hamburgers, or sandwiches. The good old standard macaroni salad is great, […]

Mango Chili Pork Tenderloin

Mango Chili Pork Tenderloin

  Grilling season is upon us, and I’d love nothing more than to sit out in the sun with a cold drink while grilling up a tasty dinner for us. Unfortunately, we have no deck. Tony tore it down last spring, with plans to replace it over the summer, but due to unforeseen circumstances — […]

Cheesy Chicken Quesadillas

Cheesy Chicken Quesadillas

We’re starting to see a lot more sunny days now that April has rolled around, which means we all want to spend more time outside and less time in the kitchen.  I find myself gravitating towards recipes that I can make quickly without even turning on the oven. These Cheesy Chicken Quesadillas from Cook with […]

Easy Chicken & Broccoli Divan

Easy Chicken & Broccoli Divan

Well, we’ve made it through the first week of spring break! Just one more week to go! I did my best to keep the kids occupied, but I had to work (I have a home office), so they had to entertain themselves a lot of the time. And that’s not a bad thing – it gave […]

Are you ready for the LISTERINE® Challenge?

Are you ready for the LISTERINE® Challenge?

I write a lot about foods that keep our bodies healthy, but let’s not forget how important it is to keep our mouths healthy too.  I try to set a good example for my kids by brushing and rinsing twice a day, and flossing every day as well.  I admit, I’m not perfect at it. Sometimes I get lazy […]

Creamy Perogie Dinner

March 6, 2015 by Megan 1 Comment

Creamy Perogie Dinner

I have a weakness for perogies.  To me, they are the ultimate comfort food.  I try to go easy on the carbs most of the time, but when it comes to perogies, I just can’t help myself.  And they make such a quick and easy dinner, so that’s a big bonus right there.  If it […]
