My family is absolutely crazy about eggs, and I have all kinds of favourite egg recipes to prove it! From my Finnish mom’s always popular Poached Codfish with Egg Sauce to my husband’s favourite Bacon Egg Salad Wrap, eggs are used so often in our house that I buy packs of 30 instead of ordinary cartons…and still run out all the time!

Easy Roasted Garlic Recipe for a Gourmet Charcuterie Board

September 25, 2017 by Kathryn 6 Comments

When my husband and I are having lunch at home together during the week, we have a few favourite meals we like to make. And a charcuterie board is always one of our top picks. Meat, cheese, crackers and a few garnishes combine to make a lunch that feels like a gourmet treat.

Roasted garlic is one of our all-time favourite additions to a charcuterie board. For months, we bought it by the spoonful from our local grocery store’s deli section. But then we tried making it ourselves, and I was thrilled with how easy it was. If you love garlic, you’ve got to give this simple oven roasted garlic recipe a try! [Read more…]

Gourmet Tomato Bruschetta and Chocolate Mousse Ready in Minutes with the Braun PureMix Blender

October 19, 2016 by Kathryn 28 Comments

For the last few days, I’ve had a blast testing out the Braun PureMix blender. From smoothies and milkshakes to soups and sauces, there’s so much I can do with this versatile machine. I especially love using it to crush ice; the special pulsing setting for crushed ice gives perfect results every time!

But as much as I loved using the blender for basic recipes, I really wanted to get a little more gourmet with my Braun PureMix recipe creations. So I decided to create a gourmet appetizer and dessert with the blender: Tomato Bruschetta and Chocolate Mousse!

While I love the big main meal on Christmas day, it’s always so large that we don’t eat much else for days afterwards. After the heavy feasting and celebrating on Christmas, I like to keep things a bit lighter when New Year’s Eve rolls around. That’s why for the last few years, New Year’s Eve has been a time to relax at home and enjoy an assortment of homemade appetizers.

But with the boys taking up so much of my time, I still want appetizers to be quick and easy. That’s why one of my favourite recipes is stuffed mushrooms. They take just minutes to prepare but are always a hit. And as a seafood fan, my Parmesan Crab Stuffed Mushrooms are always a top pick during New Year’s celebrations. So recently I headed to my local Sobeys store to pick up the ingredients I would need to whip up a batch. [Read more…]

Holiday Entertaining Just Got Easier with New Black Diamond Cheese Spread

December 5, 2013 by Kathryn 151 Comments

With Christmas less than a month away, holiday entertaining is on my mind. I’ve been spending the last week baking up some tasty goodies for the freezer, but I like having savoury snacks to offer as well as sweets. I adore using appetizers for entertaining and cheese is one of my top choices, simply because I love it so much. Recently Black Diamond asked me to create a few recipes perfect for holiday entertaining using its new Black Diamond Cheese Spread and I couldn’t resist the chance to test out the cheesy goodness for myself.

I decided to make the Bacon Cheddar Salsa Dip featured on the Black Diamond website. My boys and I are huge fans of Mexican food and this looked like a great easy way to enjoy our favourite cuisine. I made the recipe even easier by substituting our favourite store-bought salsa for the freshly made version and the results were perfect. [Read more…]
