Slow Cooker Spaghetti Sauce

Oh yes! Two of my favourite things in one post: spaghetti and slow cookers.  We eat spaghetti quite often, and I also cook with my slow cooker a lot, so I’m surprised I’ve never shared a recipe for slow cooker spaghetti sauce before now. What I love about this particular recipe from Cook with Campbells…

Coconut Adobo Yam & Chickpea Wraps

I’m being bombarded with so many holiday sweets and rich foods this time of year that by the end of the day all I want is something light and healthy for dinner.  These meatless wraps are a perfect choice, and you won’t believe how easy and fast they are to make. I used Pulo Coconut Adobo cooking…

Mango Chili Sweet & Sour Meatballs

You might remember that I blogged about Chicken and Mango Flatbread not too long ago, using Pulo Cuisine sauces and marinades to create a unique recipe.  That post was my submission to Pulo Recipe Challenge from Food Bloggers of Canada.  There were so many incredible recipe submissions, so I know it must have been really tough to select…

Chicken and Broccoli Alfredo

There’s one vegetable that my kids will always eat, and that’s broccoli. Other veggies can be hit and miss, but broccoli never fails to entice all three of my children. I don’t really know why that is, and frankly I don’t really care, I’m just happy they actually like something so healthy.  Because of my…

Make Good Food Real Fast with Epicure {Giveaway}

Some nights, it can seem like an insurmountable task to get a healthy meal on the table quickly.  At the end of the day, I have a million things on my mind, a tired toddler whining at my feet, kids relentlessly asking me questions, and all I want to do is sit down and have a glass…

Lobster Pot Pies and Lobster Mac & Cheese

I’ve always stressed the importance of introducing my kids to as many kinds of food as possible, and yet somehow they’ve made it this far in their lives without ever trying lobster. I knew we had to do something about that. When I heard on Food Bloggers of Canada that Hancock Gourmet Lobster Co. was going to be selecting…

Raspberry Oreo Coffee Creamer

Unless I’m battling morning sickness in my first few months of pregnancy, it’s very rare to see me in the morning without a cup of coffee nearby. It’s such a common sight at my house that my toddler can already say “coffee” as she points to my mug. I’m sure I’m not the only one out…

Back to School Snacks #DarePeanutFree {Giveaway}

Both my boys are in elementary school (or they will be, once the strike ends!) and my daughter is in daycare full-time, so that means there are three lunches to pack every weekday. The boys are actually really good at packing their own lunches now, but they still need ideas from me, and sometimes I struggle with…

Sometimes You Just Need a Tummy Rub {Giveaway}

Usually after dinner I crave a little something sweet. My favourite thing to have is a little nibble of good quality dark chocolate to satisfy my after-dinner cravings.  We’re all big chocolate lovers in this house. Tony and I love dark chocolate, while the kids prefer milk chocolate. So when Baroness Chocolates offered to send us some of their chocolate bars…

Chicken and Mango Flatbread #Pulocuisine

You may recognize this flatbread, because I gave you a glimpse of it in my post about the Get Cooking Challenge, where I mentioned that I got a new toaster oven. This flatbread – or pizza, or whatever you want to call it – was one of the first things I tried in it. Wow, was it ever…
