What’s For Dinner: Sliders

Sliders are brilliant. If you're not familiar with the term you can start by lifting the rock you live under... just kidding. Sliders are mini burgers. They are perfect for adult parties - we all love food you can eat in one or two bites and they are perfect for kids and their little hands and mouths. My kids love them! They are easy to make and they freeze well. They're quick to cook because of their smaller size and I love them as leftovers...

What’s for Dinner: Fish Fingers with Chunky Tartar Sauce

One of my favourite foods when I was a kid growing up in England was fish fingers with baked beans and mashed potatoes. Now, my kids love them but we usually just take them out of the freezer and toss them in the oven. Personally, I doubt that the frozen fish fingers actually have any fish in them so this recipe was great. I felt good about feeding these fish fingers to my kids, and (bonus) they loved them! This familiar family...

What’s For Dinner: Chicken Soup with a Cypriot Twist

This soup, called "Soupa Avgolemono" or Egg and Lemon Soup with Chicken, is a Cypriot soup that is traditionally served during Easter and Christmas festivities. I make it for my family all of the time, since it’s a fairly hearty soup that doesn’t take much to make.   Ingredients: 3 – 3 ½ pound whole Chicken Water Juice of 2 lemons 4 eggs 1 Cup of long-grain white rice, rinsed Chicken stock cube Salt and pepper, to...

A Brit’s Interpretation of Thanksgiving

As an immigrant to Canada, Thanksgiving is foreign to me. Coming from the UK we never had Thanksgiving. We celebrate a lot of things but this is definitely a North American tradition that gives me an opportunity to eat turkey twice a year. When I met my wife, her family didn't really celebrate Thanksgiving either. It wasn't until her sister decided to have Thanksgiving dinner that I got to experience it. What is Thanksgiving? From what...

What’s For Dinner: Spicy Grilled Chicken Wings

These chicken wings were delicious. You can use regular paprika instead of the hot to make this recipe more kid-friendly. Try these this long weekend as part of a dinner or a great snack! Among the many virtues of chicken wings, perhaps the best of all is the very high ratio of crispy, super-flavorful skin to meat. To take advantage of this, we toss the wings with a spicy herb mixture right after they come off the grill, so the...

What’s For Dinner: Easy Memphis-Style Barbecued Pork Spareribs

You can cook ribs any way you want. You can also put them in a slow cooker, bake them in a sauce or stick them straight on the BBQ. We found this recipe in Grill It! and thought we'd give it a try. It was a bit spicy for the kids, but that can be easily adjusted by minimizing the spicy spices. NB: I used my regular propane BBQ to do the last bit, we don't have a charcoal BBQ.   This is for those of you who don’t have the patience...

What’s For Dinner: Penne a la Vodka

This recipe is a family favourite! It's my wife's specialty, but she was out one night and I took a stab at it. Penne a la vodka is quick, easy and, most importantly, filling! It's great to feed lots of people, delicious as leftovers and if you like bacon and garlic you're in for a treat! The best part is that it takes the same amount of time to cook the pasta as it does to prepare the sauce.   Penne A La...

What’s For Dinner: Grilled Flank Steak

Flank steak is a cheaper cut of meat that is great for the cottage - it feeds a lot of people, takes little preparation and cooks up quickly! We like to marinate the meat at home (so we don't have to bring all the spices up to the cottage) and can leave it for a few days before cooking. Don't be afraid of what you've heard about flank steak, with a little time marinating, it can be incredibly flavourful and tender. This recipe is perfect for...

What’s For Dinner: Pork Souvlaki

My wife has been hounding me for a while now to do a blog on food. I have the tendency to make pretty awesome meals, although some might say sandwiches are my specialty, I fancy myself a proper chef. I've decided to put together some of my favourite barbecuing recipes, and will be putting them together in a series called "What's for Dinner." I've tried to simplify them to make it easy for everybody to do. If you can't do it, just pop 'round...
