Sweet and Sour Sauce

Beans and Weiners. AKA Franks ‘n Beans. AKA Beanie Weenies!  A nostalgic nod to a childhood favourite in an easy, low effort recipe that’s still a very delicious, comfort food favourite.

Perfect Cherry Cobbler. A great cherry cobbler recipe to make the best of ripe fresh cherries in an amazing warm comfort food dessert. Frozen cherries will work well out of season.

Beef Tacos from the Slow Cooker. Chunks of beef, slow cooked with black beans and spices to tender perfection then served with grilled corn salsa on soft shell tacos. Great for family dinners, pot lucks, game nights or any time you want to easily serve a crowd.

Souvlaki Steak with Lemon Chive Tzatziki. A great way to stretch a steak dinner into a budget friendly and flavourful family meal especially when served on homemade grilled flatbread.

Bumbleberry Port Jam. An easy mixed fruit jam that’s elegant enough to serve at an afternoon tea with scones and cream, or to fill a classic Victoria Sponge Cake.

Chicken with Black Bean Chipotle Chili and Rice. A versatile, economical and delicious meal that can easily be made to accommodate Vegetarians at the table too.

Strawberry Custard Angel Food Shortcake. A light summer shortcake dessert with a creamy indulgent vanilla custard to give it just a little added decadence. My daughter just finished junior high and partly because our kids have done all their schooling in French since kindergarten, she is off to Quebec for an educational and cultural exchange …

Brined Roast Pork Loin with Smokin’ Summer Spice Dry Rub. Brined overnight to season the meat well and keep it juicy, then oven roasted, covered in our own versatile dry rub.
