I love salmon, especially when Tony brings it home from one of his “business” trips. I suspect these trips are more of an excuse for guys to get together and fish than to actually conduct any business, but I don’t mind as long as I get some gorgeous fresh salmon out of it. The…

Roast Beef Fajitas #MOLOmonday
In my last post, I took a look back at the top recipes of 2014, and Slow Cooker Roast Beef was the #1 most popular post of the year. I can understand why, because it’s such a simple recipe (only 5 ingredients!) with incredibly tender meat and rich flavourful gravy. We have it quite often in our house….
Leftover Turkey Sloppy Joes
Now that the chaos of Christmas is over with, I just want to relax and enjoy some quick and simple meals. Luckily, there are lots of leftovers to make meals a little easier. If you had turkey for Christmas dinner, you probably have some leftover turkey that you don’t know what do to with. Well, I…
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…
Ham, Potato and Squash Soup #MOLOmonday
This time on MOLO Monday, I’m making this gorgeous soup out of the leftovers from baked ham, scalloped potatoes and acorn squash. I’ll also give you the shopping list for these meals, to make it a little easier for you. For the baked ham, I love to use Pioneer Woman’s Easter Ham. This is a…
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…
Salmon, Asparagus & Rice Casserole #MOLOmonday
This post is going to be the beginning of a new series of posts called MOLO Monday. On the first Monday of each month, I’ll be sharing a basic meal with creative ways of making over the leftovers into a brand new meal. This is a really great way to save money, time, and reduce wasted food. If you like…
Slow-Cooker Borscht Stew
Have you ever made a meal that had all the right things going for it – nutritious ingredients, easy preparation, visual appeal – the only problem was that nobody actually liked it? Yeah, that’s what happened with this meal. I still wanted to share it though, because I think it’s a really great recipe, especially for people following low-carb,…
