So, This Keto Mediterranean Bowl Story… Do you ever have one of those days where your brain says, “We’re having pasta!” but your body says, “Absolutely not, mate”? That’s how this Keto Mediterranean Protein Bowl was born, after one disastrous night involving a lost bag of quinoa, a fridge full of mismatched odds and ends,…
Let Me Tell You About Baked Salmon Night! Okay, so, picture this: It’s Thursday, everyone’s a bit tired, and you really want dinner to just magically appear, but also kinda healthy (ish). That’s where Baked Salmon with Potatoes and Asparagus has saved my bacon—er, salmon—more times than I can count. I started making this after…
Let Me Tell You About My (Probably Overly) Juicy Meatballs So, picture this: It’s Wednesday night, the kids are fighting (again), and I’m standing in the kitchen staring down a pack of ground beef like it owes me rent. That’s when Juicy Meatballs with Rice & Roasted Veggies comes to the rescue. I’ve made these…
If You Only Make One Biscuit Recipe, Let It Be This One If I had a dollar for every batch of cheesy biscuits I’ve whipped up, I’d probably have, I dunno, enough for a week’s worth of good cheddar. Seriously though, cheddar chive biscuits have been my culinary life raft on more than one busted…
Let’s Talk Pulled Pork (and My Family’s Obsession) Oh, pulled pork. If there’s a more forgiving, less-fussy, big-flavour meal for a Saturday BBQ, I don’t know it. Honestly, this is the dish I make when I want people to rave… but I’d rather hang out than stand over the stove for hours. My mum used…
So, Here’s How These Broccoli Cheddar Poppers Came to Be Alright, confession time: I was that kid who’d quietly slide broccoli onto my brother’s plate when nobody was watching. Fast forward a few years, a slightly better attitude toward vegetables, and an air fryer purchase I may have justified as a “health investment” but, honestly,…
So About This French Bacon Quiche (Brunches Will Never Be the Same) Okay, let me just say this up front—French Bacon Quiche is the kind of dish that makes folks linger at the table with their forks still in hand. The first time I made it, my husband basically inhaled his slice before I’d barely…
So, You Want Fluffy Pancakes, Eh? Alright, let me tell you—I used to think pancakes were just for rushed weekday mornings or, honestly, for whenever I couldn’t be bothered to make anything else. But then one Saturday (probably during that phase where I was convinced I could bake anything if I tried hard enough) I…
This Stuffing Always Steals the Show at My Table Okay, so let me spill the beans – every single Thanksgiving, my cousin Maddie claims she “doesn’t actually like stuffing” (yeah, right). But a few years back, I brought this quirky version with apples and cranberries, and she asked for seconds. I literally caught her sneaking…
Let Me Tell You About This Grits Breakfast Bowl Okay, truth time: if I had a dollar for every groggy morning I’ve stood at the stove stirring grits (sometimes in my fuzzy slippers), I’d probably have enough for, well, a couple bags of fancy grits. There’s something about the ritual—heat, swirl, taste, adjust saltiness—and suddenly…
