I know that my last post was about soup (a very scrumptious tomato soup with grilled cheese croutons, by the way), but this one is so much more than just a soup. It’s deconstructed soup. I’ve seen a few bloggers playing around with this idea, and I absolutely love it. Food Bloggers of Canada…

Cincinnati Chili
It was a rainy, cold Saturday when I made this Cincinnati chili. It rained so hard that Bennett’s soccer game was cancelled. And that’s saying a lot, because normally they play “rain or shine” — which actually means mostly rain, seeing as we are on the west coast of Canada. And you’d think I’d be unfazed by the rain by…
Mushroom Meat Sauce #MOLOmonday
June is here! It’s the last month of school, and it feels like we’re all running out of steam as we approach the end of the school year. It’s getting harder to think of creative ideas for snacks and meals. It’s times like these that I like to return to the basics, to remember the…
Gluten-Free Spaghetti Quiche
I don’t have a problem with gluten – in fact, I love the chewy texture that it gives to dough – but if you happen to have an intolerance to gluten, it can often be challenging to find gluten-free products that have a nice texture and taste. My mom has a sensitivity to gluten, so she knows this…
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…
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…
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…
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…
Cheesy Shells with Broccoli
It’s spring break, and I’m taking the week off work to spend time with my kids. Since I want to spend as much time as possible with them instead of in the kitchen, I’m going to be making a lot of simple, easy, kid-friendly meals this week. This recipe is one of our favourites. My…
Butternut Squash and Bacon Penne
With all the sweets and rich food we’ve enjoyed over the holidays now behind us and a fresh new year ahead of us, it’s a good time to start eating lighter foods. It’s not always easy to make that transition, but this pasta can help. It tastes so good that you’ll think it should be…
