Homemade meatballs with penne alla vodka, all baked together in one glorious pan. The flavours of the beef and asiago oven baked meatballs and the creamy tomato and vodka sauce compliment each other perfectly. The meatballs are made with fresh chopped parsley and grated asiago cheese. They are tender and juicy on the inside with […]
Now that it’s fall, we’re starting to use our slow cooker more often again. There are few things better than filling the house with the aroma of slow-cooked meat. Bonus points for cooking it in beer, which I do here. This is an awesome recipe for beer-braised beef done in the slow cooker. It comes […]
We’re always looking for new ways to use seafood in our cooking. And we’re pretty big fans of pizzas, so it was only a matter of time before we made a seafood pizza recipe to share. Here’s what we came up with: a Shrimp Pizza with a Sauvignon Blanc White Wine Sauce. The best part […]
Nothing quite says summer like sitting outside, beer in hand, grilling up some BBQ Pork Ribs. To get that perfect, tender, fall off the bone rack of ribs, by far the most important thing is slowly cooking them over low heat. And yes, you can do this by grilling them on the BBQ. The key […]
Hey everyone! So, it’s been a little while since my last post (sorry!), things have been just a little busy over here recently. Laura just finished her Master’s degree (yay!) in Medical Science.

Using Greek yogurt to coat the chickpeas before baking them gives them the best, crispy […]
We like roasting spaghetti squash as a healthier alternative to pasta. It is much lower in calories, has fewer carbs and has important nutrients! It’s also super easy to prepare. Just cut the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise, brush it with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and throw it in the oven. When it’s […]
Nothing says summer like firing up the BBQ. And marinated chicken drumsticks grilled on the BBQ are SO tasty! The skin can get deliciously crispy, and the chicken nice and juicy. You have to try this honey sriracha and soy sauce marinade, its absolutely full of flavour! Laura loves to buy new kitchen gadgets and […]
When we returned from San Diego we were still craving Mexican food but also really wanted some pasta. So Laura suggested making a Mexican inspired lasagna. We chose to make this with ground chicken, but like picking your favourite taco, you can have a choice of meat here. Ground beef, turkey or pork would all be delicious […]
Chicken parmesan. A classic recipe. One of those crowd pleasing recipes you should always have in your back pocket, ready to make. And really, it’s simple enough that after making it a few times, you might not even need to refer to a recipe any more. After all, some of the best things in life […]
