These turkey sandwiches are a new favorite slow cooker recipe of ours. It’s fairly simple to make – even if you take the time to make your own Pita Pockets (which we do, because they’re awesome.) and you can change up the recipe to suit what ingredients you have in your pantry.  Lettuce or spinach [...]

Remember when you were a kid and those Oreo commercials would come on?  There’d be some cute kid twisting and dunking his Oreo and it just made you want to do it too didn’t it?  I think you’d be hard pressed to find a Canadian who hasn’t done the twist, lick and dunk.  Oreo is [...]

Rob came home from work and said “so, what burned in here?” “Just go look in the kitchen,” I said. He saw the pan and I told him about the Bacon Wrapped Meatloaf and the fire.  He laughed and then ate his dinner and admitted the meatloaf was really, really good. The next few days [...]

Note:  This is the ‘mother’ recipe.  Come back over the next few days (or put your email address in that box over there —-> to get the recipes via email ) for more ideas on what to do with your pork! Pulled pork in the crock pot is my most favorite time saver.  I watch [...]

This is a staple meal at our house.  It’s comfort food through and through.  When I put this on the table, every one is quiet as they immediately start scarfing it down…even the picky eater.  Besides, any dish that starts with bacon can’t be bad, right?  We make this with Lactose free milk instead of [...]

I like pork chops – when other people cook them.  I just find that even when I get fancy and cook them in wine or with fruit they end up tasting bland.  I’m obviously doing something wrong.  Well, the other day I pulled out these nice fat chops and wondered what on earth I’d do [...]

I love pasta.  It’s inexpensive, you can make a large amount to have leftovers for lunch and it’s always satisfying.  But in the summertime I like to take it a little lighter.  A little brighter.  A little less….saucy.
