Goat Cheese Spread (Dip) with Spinach-Basil Pesto
I’ve tried this recipe quite a few times and find this to be one of the simplest and easiest appetizers to put together both as a dip and a spread with some water crackers. From the original site: I customized this recipe for pesto by playing with the key ingredients. I use fresh basil and spinach leaves in a 1:1 ratio and this sort of avoids the intensity that you would get by just adding basil or replacing it ent…
Rice with Shrimp & Shimeji
Discovering exotic mushrooms at the supermarket can be fun. Especially when it makes you discover a brilliant Japanese Rice dish that’s bursting with flavour and spice. Yum. And oh, did I mention, so EASY! From the original site: It’s got a nice spicy flavour that hits the back of your throat, and smells divine!
Paneer Mutter Masala
Paneer Mutter Masala is something which you can find almost in all the Indian restaurants. Paneer is an Indian cheese which is very similar to ricotta cheese. This creamy and soft cheese when cooked along with peas in a spicy and rich gravy,it’s heavenly. You can serve this gravy with naan, roti’s and pulavs. Special Instructions: Preparation Time:10 minutes Cooking Time: 40 minutes Serve…
Martha’s Perfect Mac and Cheese
If you are looking for an ooey, gooey, creamy and comforting dish for the whole family…you really can’t beat Martha’s Mac & Cheese. It’s like a warm cheesy blanket to keep you warm. From the original site: But, being a mother of two almost-four-year-olds, (where did the time go!?!?) one cannot maintain sanity without some sort of macaroni and cheese dish in the repertoire.…
Smoky Baby Back Ribs in the Crock-Pot
I’m a fan of low and slow when it comes to pork ribs, and I usually do them in the oven at 300 degrees for 3 hours. But why not the Crock-Pot? That’s practically the definition of low and slow. Indeed. These turned out succulent, and were no fuss. A win! From the original site: Low and slow is the way to go with baby back ribs, and the Crock-Pot or slow cooker does them perfectly. Finish these Smoky Baby Back Ribs with…
Oranger Pistachio Biscotti
This is a really easy recipe that gives you a great tasting exotic biscotti. Don’t let anyone in on our secret though. Shhh. From the original site: I also discovered a very sweet looking bottle of Oranger from Tunisia. Of course I brought it back.
Banana Bread and Cream Cheese
The slightly sweet bread combined with the tangy soft cheese is heavenly, with a cup of tea or coffee. My children love it, too. From the original site: This pairing seems obvious to me, but often enough when I mention it to people, they have never heard of spreading cream cheese on banana bread and calling it breakfast. Let me tell you, this is a call you want to take!
Gluten Free Turkey Cutlets
These turkey cutlets breaded with gluten free bread crumbs are also dairy and egg free. Stewing the cutlets after pan frying them makes them nice and tender.
Paparadelle w. Creamy Camembert Champagne Sauce
There is nothing quite like Champagne and Camembert to dress up a dish and this pasta recipe is no exception. Impressive, yet quick AND easy, it will make the intended party swoon. From the original site: I don’t recall the first dish I ever prepared for my husband, but I do remember the first dish I made that stuck in his mind. 11 years later he still talks about this dish like it’s the only good dish I ever made hi…
Sweet n’Sour Pork
This is my dad’s recipe that he’s used for as long as I remember. It’s a unique twist to the Chinese classic and when you use chilies, has a great bite! From the original site: He cooked his version of Sweet and Sour Pork, which is my favourite version (I guess it just goes that way when your parents cook!). I definitely encourage adding red hot chilli to the sauce or even using chilli vinegar…
