Did I ever tell you how much I love pizza? If I had to choose what my last meal would be, it would be pizza, no doubt about it! Not the fast food joint kind of pizza with pepperoni and green bell peppers, but a nice crispy one with a few but high quality ingredients….
Rhubard Strawberry Cobbler with Caramel Sauce
This Rhubard Strawberry Cobbler is very special to me as it reminds me of my childhood growing up in Quebec City. My mother used to make it every summer with fresh rhubarb from our garden and it was my favorite dessert. She never really made a lot of desserts (let’s just say that cooking wasn’t her favorite thing,…
Easy Cheesecake Brownies
This Easy Cheesecake Brownies recipe is just totally COCHON as we say in French. Imagine, a cheesecake AND a brownie at the same time? Really? It’s a dream come true! Just when you thought that brownies couldn’t get any better! A Classic Brownies recipe serves as base for this cake and is completely delicious on its own, so if…
One-Pan Slow-Baked Salmon
I have a feeling you’re going to love me for this One-Pan Slow-Baked Salmon. A delicious, super easy dinner in just 20 minutes with only one pan to clean! Sounds to good to be true? I came accross a test that Bon Appétit did recently to find the perfect oven temperature and cooking time for slow-baking…
Beef and Guinness Pot Pies
When you live with an Irish man, there is no escaping St-Patrick’s Day! This has been my go-to recipe for every St-Pats since I’ve known Jamie. This recipe reunites everything he loves: beer, beef and stew… and not just any beer, but his favorite, Guinness. No need to tell you that it’s always a big success, the only drawback he would…
Quick Pomodoro Sauce
I’m always impressed with the fact that with Italian food, more often than not, less is more! This is especially true with this Quick Pomodoro Sauce. It has just 5 ingredients and lacks nothing in flavor. A great tomato sauce should be easy as it has so few ingredients, but balancing them together is really difficult. It also helps…
Wonton Soup (or Dumpling Soup)
Well, with my last post being my dumpling recipe, I’ll just have to add a Wonton Soup recipe! As I told you in my previous post, making a big batch of dumplings and freezing them is really worth it. When you do have them handy, this soup takes less than 15 minutes to make and voilà! Who knew it…
Pork Dumplings (potstickers)
Pork Dumplings! Have I already told you how much my family and I LOVE dumplings? Even my 5-year old girl is fond of them. There is something so satisfying about biting ino these savory little pillows, that delicate dough, that burst of steam that can almost burn you if you’re not careful and then…that delicious ball of stuffing exploding with…
Easy Chicken Piccata
This easy Chicken Piccata recipe is zesty, very light, bright, full of flavors and totally comforting. Perfect this post holiday season! Chicken Piccata is a classic dish. It’s easy to know why, I mean where can you go wrong with a combination of lemon, capers, parsley? Traditionally, the Italians use veal but it is just as delicious…
Apple-Butternut Squash Soup with Bacon
One of my favorite things is going to the Farmer’s Market. I’m lucky to live near the Jean-Talon Market in Montreal, one of the oldest public markets in Montreal and one of the largest in North America. You won’t only find fruits and vegetable there, but also meat, fish, flowers, spices and baked goods. I go every week,…
