Canadian Thanksgiving just passed and to keep with the seasonal tradition I decided to make a pumpkin pie. But this time around it wasn’t going to be any ordinary pie. I had a tub of mascarpone in the fridge courtesy of my uninspiring and wanted a way to use it up. After […]
I’ve always liked the idea of “power bars” and granola bars. Over the years I’ve tried so many different bars and been disappointed by so many of them. My favourite bars by far are Larabars.
What’s really awesome about Larabars is that their ingredients list are shockingly short and shockingly simple. […]
It’s not surprise that I love granola. I’ve blogged about it a bunch of times (just type in granola in the search field at the top). Granola is one of those things that I can never find just right in the packaged version. As someone with a serious aversion to raisins I’m […]
So on Fried Chicken Day I decided to make biscuits too because fried chicken and biscuits go together like early Madonna and lace. I’m forever craving Cheddar Bay Biscuits from Red Lobster so I went on the hunt for something similar.
I ended up finding this recipe from the Barefoot […]
Recently my dear friend Jaime invited me to go cherry picking in her grandmother’s yard. Since I a.) love cherries and b.) love opportunities to channel my inner Nicole Richie circa “The Simple Life” I was eager to join. Having never picked cherries in my life it didn’t really occur to me […]
While at the farmers market the other day I couldn’t resist some more fresh Ontario rhubarb and strawberries. Strawberries and rhubarb are a classic pairing so I figured I’d make some sort of dessert. My mind immediately went to pie and then to crumble. But then I went to Epicurious […]
A few weeks ago in my cooking class it was egg day. The teacher demonstrated how to make hollandaise, how to poach an egg, how to make various omelettes and then we made quiche. Now as you may or may not know from reading the blog, eggs freak me out. You can’t […]
My trip to Stratford reminded me how much I love homemade granola. I normally use this recipe from my friend Amanda and love it. However while in Stratford a few people mentioned that my friend Bonita over at Bon Eats had a recipe worth checking out. […]
One of the by-products of my butter making experiment was buttermilk. Buttermilk is great. I use it pancakes all the time. Problem is I can usually only find it in 1L formats. Half the time I say screw it and just make “buttermilk” by adding either lemon juice or vinegar […]
This week’s Barefoot Bloggers pick comes courtesy of Peggy at Pantry Revisited. I’m a fan of croissants and I love bread pudding so this seemed like a great pick.
This is a quick and easy recipe. Some might see this as dessert, but for me it just screamed breakfast! I mean, […]
