easy dinner recipe

With school in full swing and busy, cooler nights, I’ve tried to plan meals that not only fill us up, but are great for (hot) packed lunches. Which prompted me to give this pasta dish a try

As I prepared (both emotionally and logistically) for mini sous chef’s first foray into the JK world, I decided a little meal planning might help avoid the 'back-to-school' dinnertime drama. So I pulled out Chatelaine’s Dinner in 30 cookbook and picked a few recipes, starting with Red-curry-peanut noodles

This would make a great addition to a BBQ or picnic, as it’s delicious served either hot or cold. And depending on your preferences, you could easily swap veggies (for example, I’m not a huge eggplant fan, so I cut it back and added more zucchini). I’m certain this salad will hit our BBQ at least a few more times before we close it up for the season

With only one week to go until Labour Day weekend, we’ve been firing up the BBQ as often as possible and the most recent recipe to hit our grill was from Chatelaine’s Summer Cookbook’s "The Perfect Burger."

It's Friday night, pizza night! I’m always looking for easy barbeque ideas. For one, it’s the perfect way to stay out of the kitchen and away from the (hot) stove in the summer, and two, chef-in-training is in charge of the BBQ
