Asian Noodle Soup

November 19, 2017 by Megan 5 Comments

Asian Noodle Soup

Asian Noodle Soup (Instant Pot) A couple months ago, I finally bought one of those Instant Pots that everyone is raving about. When we were doing our kitchen renovations, I was a little overzealous in purging kitchen items, and I ended up accidentally getting rid of the lid of my slow-cooker. It wasn’t a great […]

Cedar Plank Salmon with Moroccan Spice Rub

Cedar Plank Salmon with Moroccan Spice Rub I’ve been hearing about how good salmon is when cooked on a cedar plank for some time now, but I only recently gave it a try for myself. I was in Safeway and I happened to notice a nice pink slab of salmon stretched out on a cedar plank […]

Old World Knowledge

Old World Knowledge

My sister Lori and my sister-in-law Jocelyne owned an eatery in rural PEI, where they built their own wood fired oven and made all their food from scratch. People were always curious about their oven and how they prepared their food, so they decided to make a video series called Old World Knowledge, with the help of their friend, […]

Easy Beef Stew

It’s spring break this week and next week for my kids. I took this week off and we decided not to go anywhere, just stay home and have relaxing family time together. It’s been really nice. And, I finally have time to blog! I’ve been so busy with work and the kids’ schedules that I […]

Tomato and Bacon Gnocchi Skillet Dinner

February 5, 2017 by Megan 4 Comments

Tomato and Bacon Gnocchi Skillet Dinner

This recipe is a spin on an old family favourite, Gnocchi and Chickpea Skillet Dinner. I love to combine gnocchi in a skillet with whatever veggies and protein I happen to have on hand. In the original post, it happened to be chickpeas, mushrooms, broccoli, and a little bit of turkey bacon. This time I […]

Shortcut Bibimbap

Shortcut Bibimbap

As I was photographing this Shortcut Bibimbap recipe, the kids came up to me to ask what I was making. “Bibibap — Bibimpap, ” I stuttered.  “I mean Bibimbap!” They just stared at me with puzzled looks on their faces, and walked away. It’s a hard word to say (for me anyway), but trust me, it’s easy to make. My […]

Nachos for Dinner

Nachos for Dinner

You might think nachos are just for snacking and can’t be very healthy for dinner, but with a few tweaks, you can create a nutritious meal out of nachos. Best of all, this is one meal your kids will actually beg to eat!  Mine sure do. You should see how their eyes light up when […]

20 Beautiful Burgers to Make This Summer

20 Beautiful Burgers to Make This Summer

It’s summer! So many burgers to make, so little time.  Luckily, you can easily enjoy burgers all year round, but they’re especially good when the weather is hot and the barbeque is fired up. My kids love when we have a burger night, because they like to build their very own burgers just the way they […]

Create your own Cottage Pie

June 12, 2016 by Megan 1 Comment

Create your own Cottage Pie

My boys and husband are real meat and potatoes guys. They tend to prefer simple meals rather than complicated culinary masterpieces, which works out well for me when trying to prepare a quick meal that everyone will like. Basically anything with meat and potatoes is sure to win them over. Cottage pie combines the two […]

Lentil Tacos and a Taco Template

Raise your hand if you love Taco Tuesdays! Ever since the Lego Movie came out, Bennett gets excited when we have tacos on a Tuesday, but there’s never really a bad day for tacos, is there? I love having them on weeknights because they’re so quick — I just set out all the ingredients and everyone makes their […]
