I’ve been on a quest for the past few months to make awesome Chinese food. For the most part I’ve had success thanks to . This cookbook is FANTASTIC! It’s a great mix of traditional Chinese recipes and Chinese-American recipes. Totally up my alley.
I was at work [...]
I’ve made secret of my lack of affection for chicken. I mean, when there are so many other interesting things to eat chicken just seems so pedestrian. So, I rarely make it. BUT every once in a while I get inspired when I see a pack of chicken on sale to give it another [...]
*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 [...]
Somehow I’m totally a week late posting this! Not sure how I got the dates so mixed up in my head at all. Clearly I did not ace this one. I have to admit, I wasn’t looking forward to making this recipe in the first place. McKenzie of chose this recipe [...]
Another Thursday, another Barefoot Bloggers challenge! When I saw that Lindsey of Noodle Nights and Muffin Mornings chose Chicken Piccata as her recipe pick I was okay with the choice. I’ve had chicken piccata in the past and enjoyed it but on a whole I don’t eat a lot of chicken. [...]
Every once in a while I go through a phase where I become obsessed with a particular cuisine. A few months ago it was Mexican and before that it was Indian. The cycles are usually driven by a new cookbook acquisition or a great meal at a restaurant and I haven’t been inspired by [...]

When Giada first came onto the Food Network scene I ADORED her. I thought her recipes were delicious, simple and a good way of doing Italian without getting to fancy with it. But over the years things changed. The shirts got lower, the manicures [...]
I’ve decided to make my triumphant return to the blogosphere after months of laziness and quality time in my sweatpants. It’s not that I haven’t been cooking (although for awhile I wasn’t cooking anything spectacular), it’s that I’ve been less than motivated to update. But those days are over! I’ve decided to spend [...]
I think I’ll start a new tag for food crushes because I have to admit, I have many.
Ina and Mario are probably my biggest food crushes with Madhur Jaffrey steadily climbing up the ranks. My other love as of late is Rick Bayless ye of Mexican food. I’m currently working my way [...]
Right now I’m going through a huge Mexican phase. All I want is delicious, incredible, and REAL-ish mexican. No Taco Bell no over-stuffed Tex-Mex burritos. I want the real thing. Toronto doesn’t have many options for authentic Mexican (Rebozos is a very delicious exception). Luckily over the holidays I picked up [...]
