Cinnamon Raisin Granola

August 16, 2017 by Anna 1 Comment

Cinnamon Raisin Granola

My kids are yogurt and granola fanatics. When it’s in the house, it’s all they want for breakfast, and sometimes they ask for it again for lunch. I’m not complaining, don’t get me wrong. I love granola too. The only problem with so many people eating granola so many times is how often you have […]

Creamy Garlic Chicken with Bacon Alfredo

Creamy Garlic Chicken with Bacon Alfredo

Say what?! I went and took a picture of a dinner recipe, which means you know you need to make it. If you like pasta, that is. I hosted a bake exchange last night that resulted in 12 kinds of amazingness in my freezer that I’m trying not to think about so it will last longer than […]

Mom’s Recipes: Slow Cooker Tomato Sauce

Mom’s Recipes: Slow Cooker Tomato Sauce

I always forget about the existence of slow cookers in the summer, since comfort food at this time of year comes more in the form of barbecue and no-bake, but this recipe makes pulling it out an absolute must!  If you think making your own tomato sauce is too time consuming, you need this recipe […]

Zucchini Muffins

Zucchini Muffins

You can find zucchini in just about everything right now, from cookies and cakes to lasagnas and salads.  While I applaud the use of zucchini in just about everything, the most important recipes are still the classics.  I don’t care how good a spiralized pickled dehydrated quinoa zucchini salad you can make and call it […]

Lemon Rhubarb Coffee Cake

May 21, 2014 by Anna 11 Comments

Lemon Rhubarb Coffee Cake

Yeeeee-awn.  I’ve been trying to get up extra early every day for some quiet devotion and alone time, and, while the sun makes it easier, it still isn’t easy for someone who loves their bed as much as I do.  I don’t drink coffee, so coffee cake is like my coffee – a morning pick-me-up accompanied perfectly […]

Chocolate Cranberry Sweet Rolls with Orange Glaze

May 9, 2014 by Anna 5 Comments

Chocolate Cranberry Sweet Rolls with Orange Glaze

Well, I now have something besides a baby on which to blame my ever-and-rapidly-expanding girth. Sweet roll baking has completely taken over bread baking in my life and kitchen, and I’m not even sorry. Leftover cranberry sauce has to be one of my favourite leftovers, and these sweet rolls are proof of why.  Just thinking […]

Homemade Naan Bread

Homemade Naan Bread

It’s officially April 1st, which means as you read this we are likely en route back to home-sweet-home, done our lovely 3 month sojourn at my parents’ home in Ontario and gearing up for a month of single parenting until Carl wraps up his semester at the end of the month.  I honestly can’t believe […]

Apple Crumble Quick Bread

Apple Crumble Quick Bread

Before we talk about apple cinnamon loaves and perfect streusel topping, I need to know: is anyone else the proud owner of an independent, opinionated 5-year-old girl? I love my sweet daughter dearly, and for the most part she’s extremely easy-going, friendly, open and reasonable. But man, when she gets something into her head there […]

Saturday Sweets: Cookie Dough Truffle Bars

Do you ever watch Dragon’s Den or Shark Tank?  I’m not really a TV watcher, but I love those shows.  I tend to think most things have already been invented, and then along comes someone with a brilliant, and usually simple, invention or solution of some sort that makes me think, “Now why didn’t I […]
