This recipe and I go way back. I found it in Martha Stewart’s Everyday Foods magazine a few years ago and have been making it a few times a year ever since. It’s always on my list of “things to make with leftover ham”. It’s really simple and fairly quick to throw together. The recipe [...]

The other day my work bestie was raving about this soup and gave me the recipe. I admit it looked pretty delicious and I NEVER covet other people’s lunches. It sounded right up my alley with all the thai flavour and meatballs (I LOVE meatballs) so convincing me to make it was hardly a task. [...]

During the winter months I’m always on the lookout for new soup recipes. Soup is one of my favourite things to eat for lunch during the winter and it tends to be healthy. After a great cup of soup while at Angelica Kitchen in New York, I decided to pull out my copy of their [...]

I love getting the latest issue of Cook’s Illustrated magazine. It really is a food geek’s dream. I love reading the details about how they arrived at the ingredients and procedure of each recipe. I also love that the recipes are for some pretty basic things that we’ve all been making for years. In the [...]
Butternut squash soup is quite possibly my favourite type of soup. I love the creaminess (without cream), the sweetness and the fact that it just seems so healthy! Over the years I’ve played with various recipes. Some were all squash, some involved apples or apple juice, some were spiced with ginger etc. I was flipping [...]
I’ll be the first to admit that I have been slacking on my Barefoot Bloggers duties. This summer wasn’t conducive to cooking and blogging all that much and then I couldn’t muster the energy to participate in September with the double dose of cake recipes. I don’t even really like cake all that much so [...]

*Sorry I’ve been MIA… BIG test yesterday but now I’m back! AND the cleanse is over! * I’ll be the first to admit that this looks a bit like a swampy mess but trust me, it was delicious! I make chili all the time but they are usually tomato-based. Since I can’t have tomatoes on [...]

More meatballs! The picture does not do the soup justice, but trust me, it’s delicious. This is another goodie from Ina Garten’s Back to Basics which is a current fave. There has always been something super appealing about Italian Wedding Soup. Pasta, meatballs and spinach in a yummy broth? Sign me up! The photo in [...]

I’ve been in the mood to eat more veggies recently. I think it’s my body’s way of telling me to get healthy and not let these dreary winter months weigh on me. When I want to eat healthy(ish) there are a few cookbooks that I turn to including The Whole Foods Market Cookbook , Supernatural [...]
