This Classic French Toast has been a breakfast staple in our home for years. It's quick, easy and can be as simple or fancy as you like. When my kids were little I would often make it for weekday breakfast and would use whatever bread I had on hand. They weren't fussy at all and would always gobble it up. (That is, until they became teenagers and suddenly were way too cool for breakfast...*sigh*) I still whip up a batch on a regular basis. It's often a bit of a last-minute idea, so I … [Read more...]
How to Make a Reuben Sandwich
This is one of our go to meals when we are looking for something a little different for dinner, but still want to keep it easy and delicious. One of the number one most requested quick dinners by my family is our version of a Reuben Sandwich. I believe that traditionally, corned beef is used as the meat in this sandwich. We have always used smoked meat, which I recently discovered is actually the Montreal version of the classic. I have also often substituted a light mayonnaise for the … [Read more...]
Easter Magic Bars
If you are looking for a delicious, easy, make-ahead treat for Easter, this recipe for Easter Magic Bar is for you! All I did was take my traditional recipe for Magic Bars/Hello Dolly Squares (some people call them Magic Bars and some Hello Dolly Squares) and tweaked it a bit to make them more ”Eastery”. (I don’t think that’s even a word...but you get the idea!) I love how they turned out, not only do that taste amazing, the pretty pastel colours look very Easter and springlike! … [Read more...]
Spaghetti Cheese Casserole
I cannot remember when we first started making this outstanding Spaghetti Cheese Casserole. It feels like it has been part of our dinner repertoire since forever! It is one of those "old style" recipes that you sometimes find in community type cookbooks or tucked away in a big stack of yellowing recipe cards. I often made this casserole when our kids were little and into their teens, but lately, it seems to be Music Man's "go to" supper when he cooks. Hearty, filling, and … [Read more...]
Glazed Lemon and Cranberry Muffins
A couple days ago I found a bag of frozen cranberries, left over from Christmas no doubt, in the back of my freezer. Since muffins are my favourite thing to bake and I also had a fresh lemon on hand, I decided to modify my recipe for Blueberry Muffins and try to make some Glazed Lemon and Cranberry Muffins. Wow, what a great decision! And, if I dare say so myself, they were incredible. They are light but not at all dry, I think that’s because of the sour cream. They have a bit of … [Read more...]
Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup
Is there anything more comforting on a cold, snowy night or a chilly, rainy day than coming home to a big bowl of steaming chicken noodle soup? To me, chicken noodle soup is the ultimate comfort food and the only way it could possibly be improved on...is to make it homemade! If we buy a little chicken for dinner, I always make chicken stock from the carcass and more often than not, a batch of some type of chicken soup. Sometimes it’s chicken and rice soup but often it’s this recipe … [Read more...]
