Now that fall is here, I think it’s time for a soup recipe. I had some leftover chicken and fresh thyme from the Roast Chicken recipe I posted recently. There’s always an ample supply of butternut squash and yams this time of year, so I added those ingredients to the soup as well. I threw a few…

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…
Turkey Enchilada Pasta
Mexican food has got to be my favourite food. No wait – make that Italian food – because I love pasta so much. It’s just too hard to decide…or it was, until I had this enchilada pasta. It’s the best of both worlds! This is a great weeknight one-pot meal. It’s easy to make, and with turkey and shredded…
Asian Chicken Drumsticks
I’m a frugal grocery shopper, so when I see chicken drumsticks on sale, I grab a lot of them. They’re much cheaper than most other parts of the chicken, but can be just as tasty. I usually just sprinkle a little seasoning salt on them and bake them, but that gets pretty boring after a while. When I saw a…
Turkey Meatball Curry
I love the combination of curry and coconut milk. The heat from the curry and the cooling creaminess of the coconut milk pair so well together. My kids hate anything spicy, so I don’t add a lot of curry, but I think it’s important for them to try different spices, even if it’s just a little…
Salmon Burgers #FlavourStory {Giveaway}
One of my favourite memories so far this summer was when the boys caught their very first fish. It was such a thrill for them to feel the tug on the end of the line as the fish grabbed hold of the bait. They were totally enthralled as the fisherman showed them how to reel…
Grilled Shrimp with Mixed Greens and Maple Vinaigrette #FlavourStory
With the weather heating up, it’s the perfect time to heat up the grill and give the oven a break. It also feels like a break for me when I get to spend time outside on the deck, enjoying the sunshine while grilling a delicious summer meal (or better yet, when Tony does the grilling!). Sadly, we have…
Chicken Caesar Sliders
Maybe it’s the heat, or the lack of routine, or the exhausting task of keeping the kids occupied all day (or probably a combination of all three!), but whatever the reason, there are a lot of times when I don’t feel like cooking much in the summer. I either prepare meals earlier in the day while…
Mexican Chicken and Corn {Lettuce Wraps or Tacos}
I hate wasting good leftovers, so I’m always looking for creative ways to turn leftover food into something new and delicious. In my last post, you saw how I made corn on the cob in the oven (yum!). Now here’s a great recipe idea to use up any leftover corn you may have. If you also baked…
Skillet Lasagna
My family is weird. None of them like lasagna. I can’t even believe that I’m related to any of those crazies. I mean, what is there not to like about lasagna? It’s just layers upon layers of noodles, delicious sauce, and don’t forget all that melty cheese. I love pretty much everything about lasagna, except for the time and…
