CHICK IN APRON

Hey Reader, I can't believe pickling season is already here. When I saw few pretty red maple leaves on the pavement, it hit me - the falls is here. This is the exact same time I start pickling every year, and somehow it caught me off guard (again). There is something about that first cold snap that makes me want jars lined up on the counter. So this week I am sharing two of my favourite pickled vegetable salads. Both are simple and both are a great side dish that makes a plain weeknight...

Hey Reader, Yesterday my day was saved by a tiny bit of thinking ahead. I was so exhausted after work, and by the time dinner was done, I already had to figure out what to make the next day. No leftovers to fall back on, so something had to give. So I did the smallest bit of prep based on energy I had left. I marinated some meat, sliced it thin, and tucked it into a container. Then I chopped up some vegetables sitting in the fridge and popped them into another one. That was it, maybe five...

Hey Reader, My Dutch oven does not get put away anymore. It just lives on the stove now, front burner, permanent resident, because putting it back in the cabinet feels pointless when I am using it every day. So I finally sat down and pulled together every Dutch oven recipe I make on repeat, and it turned into a lot more than I expected. Thirty three of them, actually, sorted so you can find what you need very easy. There are soups and stews for the days when you want something warm with...

Hey Reader, I can't imagine wrapping up the summer BBQ season without introducing you to one of my favourite BBQ recipes of all time. Yew, I am all for meat on the barbecue, don't get me wrong. But vegetables are always at the top of my list, and nothing beats a buttered corn on the cob. Here is the twist 👉 I love finishing the grilled corn with parmesan cheese. Just melt some herb butter over the warm corn (keep a batch in the freezer and this comes together in seconds), then finish it with...
