Best Ever Gourmet Grilled Cheese with Two Cheeses and Roasted Garlic Artisan Bread

December 5, 2016 by Kathryn 50 Comments

Like most kids, I loved grilled cheese sandwiches when I was young. The sandwich of my youth was the classic processed cheese slice on white bread flattened down as much as possible and cooked to a golden brown.

I still love the idea of grilled cheese, but my tastes have matured since those days. So I decided it was time to make my grilled cheese sandwich gourmet!

With two cheeses, artisan bread and a creamy tomato and roasted red pepper soup served on the side, this sandwich was everything I had hoped it would be. If you’ve been looking for a top-shelf grilled cheese, look no further!

Try These 4 Kid-Approved Snacks for a School Lunch that’s Sure to Please

September 21, 2016 by Kathryn 25 Comments

In my opinion, the true secret to making great school lunches is making sure to pack items that are both kid and mom approved. I have my own criteria for lunchbox food and my sons have theirs. That’s why I always check their lunches for items that come home uneaten more than a few days in a row and ask for my boys’ input regularly. Looking for kid-approved ideas for your child’s meals? Here are four foods my boys are always happy to find when they open up their lunchbox!

1) Real Cheese

So much more delicious than processed cheese slices and great either on a sandwich or as a snack, my boys love finding different types of cheese in their lunch. As soon as I started adding it to their sandwiches with the deli meat, they started eating more of their main course. And many varieties are available already sliced and ready to serve to help save me time in the morning! [Read more…]

Throwing a Hit Viewing Party is Easy with the SUBWAY Canada Prime Rib Melt

November 12, 2015 by Kathryn 315 Comments

I’m really not a big television person, but I do have a few must-see shows. In the spring, I always make time for the newest season of Game of Thrones. And in the fall, watching the latest episodes of The Walking Dead is a must.

My significant other has the same must-see television list that I do (in fact, he was the one that originally got me hooked on The Walking Dead), so watching the latest episode together each week is one of our bonding moments.

Usually, it’s just the two of us relaxing at home while we watch but last Sunday, SUBWAY Canada challenged us to make our prime time television viewing even better with our own The Walking Dead viewing party. And with the hugely popular SUBWAY Prime Rib Melt featuring 100% Canadian beef back as an everyday menu item at SUBWAY Canada, we knew we had the food figured out!

The Decor

Throwing a viewing party might seem like a lot of work, but I soon learned that it doesn’t take much to turn an ordinary night of watching television into something special. We invited a few couples over for the event and I started planning ways to add some zombie style to the house. My first stop was the dollar store. I grabbed “blood” red plates as well as a katana-style toy sword like the one Michonne uses and a black toy gun to toss on the table as props. [Read more…]

Get Cheesy on Mexican Night With a Special Offer from Old El Paso and Kraft Canada

April 10, 2015 by Kathryn 20 Comments

My boys’ first experience with Mexican food was a taco party made with an Old El Paso Dinner Kit, and while we’ve tried all kinds of different Mexican delicacies since then, Old El Paso tacos are still their favourite. Benjamin loves a soft taco and Zackary likes the crunchy shells, but both boys agree that Old El Paso is delicious!

Get Cheesy! Three Gourmet Grilled Cheese Recipes for National Grilled Cheese Month

April 23, 2014 by Kathryn 70 Comments

If there’s one thing that I make no secret of, it’s my love of cheese. Of all the foods in the world, it is quite easily my favourite and I add it to virtually any dish I can think of.

I make all kinds of meals with cheese, but for a quick lunch or an afternoon snack, there’s simply nothing better than a grilled cheese sandwich made with Kraft Singles cheese slices.

As luck would have it, April is National Grilled Cheese Month, and since I definitely don’t wait until April to enjoy grilled cheese sandwiches, I wanted to do something extra special to commemorate the event. And so the Grilled Cheese Party was born!

The boys and I created three gourmet twists on the classic grilled cheese sandwich with the help of an array of different toppings and bread. If you love grilled cheese, you will definitely want to try one of these tasty variations! [Read more…]
