  • Chicken Parm…ish

       When you’ve had a long day and just want to decompress, take a few minutes to get this going, and have a glass of wine while you wait!  For two: 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts (not the frozen ones with added salt!) 1 egg 1/4 c 1% milk 1 c whole wheat bread crumbs…

  • Healthy Made Simple

       Healthy choices are made out by some to be complicated. They are all about giving up things we love. Instead, let’s think about how we can simplify what we eat. We have half a leftover roast chicken in the fridge. (Learn to roast it yourself to avoid the excessive salt of the store’s rotisserie…

  • To Jamie…and Beyond!

    So we are always searching for inspiration. This week we were researching a variety of Jamie Oliver recipes. Today we adapted the Hit ‘N’ Run Panbaked Chicken. We used what we had…carrots, parsnips, olives for extra flavour…and it was beyond awesome. Experiment and make your own veggie combos. We guarantee it will be tremendous.

  • Serendipity Dinner

    In an effort to use up last year’s batch of canned tomatoes before the new ones are ripe, we made a huge pot of marinara on the weekend. Some has gone to the freezer, but the mother of all sauces is so versatile, it’s getting used in all kinds of dishes. Yesterday, pizza toast for…

  • A Long Day's Dinner

    We took a well-deserved day off on Friday, golfing in beautiful Northumberland. Then we visited friends in Kingston and took the slow road home through Prince Edward County, including a few winery stops and a delicious lunch at East and Main in Wellington. By the time we arrived home, though, all we wanted was a…

  • Change of Seasons Chicken

    Yesterday we had a typical Canadian spring shock to the system. After days of gloriously mild weather, it turned very chilly, gray, and windy. Since we spent the day running around (Alliance Française for French class, some lunch, then the Canada Blooms show, then errands…whew!) we wanted a warming sort of dinner. We made this…

  • The Leftover Trend Continues

    Last night’s grilled chicken was organized for three, and one dropped off the list. (When you’re semi empty nest this happens). So we used the leftovers, plus some soda bread from the weekend’s festivities, and made a sandwich: For two… Four slices soda bread Chop chicken and one tomato in 1cm or 1/2″ dice. Mix…

  • Comfort Food

    Last night’s dinner, Chicken Paprikash. It’s fast and easy to prepare, but most of all, it’s a comforting food. It’s been an adjustment learning to see all over again but with this dinner, no recipe-reading was required. Stay tuned for today’s special, pancakes!

  • Purple Chicken Soup!

    After roasting a chicken the other night, we decided to make some soup with the leftovers. All was going well, until it came time to add the vegetables. There were good choices – garlic, ginger, celery, onion and mushrooms. Some tasty small pasta. Then the trouble began…I decided to use a couple of carrots that…

  • Playing Chicken

    ’twas in the dead of wintertime…yet it hardly seems it. We had a great walk around the neighbourhood today, and it was chilly but the sun was blazing. We spent the afternoon readying the house for the New Year, after the post-Epiphany cleanup. Then to dinner. An amazing chicken breast (the whole thing, not just…
