Cedar Plank Salmon with Moroccan Spice Rub I’ve been hearing about how good salmon is when cooked on a cedar plank for some time now, but I only recently gave it a try for myself. I was in Safeway and I happened to notice a nice pink slab of salmon stretched out on a cedar plank…

Curried Cauliflower Lentil Soup
Yes, another soup recipe! Clearly, I’m obsessed with soup lately. I’m sorry, I can’t help it. There’s just something so comforting about a big bowl of hot soup. I’ve been experimenting with this particular recipe for Curried Cauliflower Lentil Soup for a while now, testing it until I perfected it. Although my kids may disagree, I think I’ve come up…
The Best Meatball Subs
OK, now I don’t want to start any fights over whose meatballs subs are actually the best. You may say your Grandma’s are the best, or the ones at your favourite restaurant down the street are the best, and who am I to argue with that? All I mean when I say these are “The…
Smoothie Fun with Epicure {GIVEAWAY}
Spring is in the air, and as the weather gets warmer, I start to crave smoothies. A cold smoothie bowl is so refreshing for breakfast on a sunny morning. If we’re on the go with no time to sit down for breakfast, we can sip on smoothies on our way out the door so we can still start…
How to Freeze and Reheat Cooked Rice for Quick Meals
You know those evenings when you wish you could just have food magically appear on the table? I have a lot of those evenings. Sometimes I need something lightning fast to eat while rushing from work to soccer practice, or when I’m working late at the office, or when I just want to wind down…
Stevia-Sweetened Pomegranate Lime Spritzer
It can be hard to find a decent sugar-free, non-alcoholic beverage to sip on over the holidays. I learned this the hard way three years ago, when I had gestational diabetes while pregnant with my daughter. (For more on that story, visit the blog I wrote: The GD Diaries) I had GD with both my sons as well,…
Egg in a Jar
Here’s the fourth post in my daily grab-and-go breakfast series this week: Egg in a Jar! My kids go crazy for eggs. They would gladly eat eggs for breakfast every morning, but it’s time-consuming to cook up an egg, standing over the stovetop to make sure it doesn’t burn, while I’m trying to get everyone ready for school. Then I…
Mango Chili Pork Tenderloin
Grilling season is upon us, and I’d love nothing more than to sit out in the sun with a cold drink while grilling up a tasty dinner for us. Unfortunately, we have no deck. Tony tore it down last spring, with plans to replace it over the summer, but due to unforeseen circumstances —…
Chocolate Peanut Butter Coconut Freezer Bars
I like having a stash of chocolate treats that I keep all to myself, in case of emergency chocolate cravings. These little chocolate peanut butter coconut treats are stashed in my freezer, and I’m pretty sure nobody knows they’re in there but me. I’d like to keep it that way, because they’re way too good to share. …
Whole Chicken in a Crockpot #MOLOmonday
If you love your crockpot like I do, this is a perfect way use it to its full potential. On this MOLO Monday, I’m showing you two meals made in the crockpot using one whole chicken. This is actually from a post that I wrote back in 2010, but it remains one of my most…
