Apologies for my absence, dear friends! I have been preoccupied for the past 2 weeks watching the OLYMPICS! Final Total for CANADA was a whopping 14 Gold, Setting a new WINTER OLYMPICS RECORD!! Amazing! So, I have created a recipe in honor of our athletes, based on what they would eat.
Your final recipe for this Valentines day special is a Fruit, Meat and Cheese platter for an afternoon snack. This dish is supposed to look “rustic” or messy in my terms, but I like it that way. Enjoy your canoodleing today my dearies! Give all your BF’s a Giant kiss from CHEF LISS!
Alright, I saw a picture and ran with an idea. So far I think it could be heaven in a slice. Give’er a try and let me know! Basically its a Shrimp pesto pizza. I like adding things, and I thought this would be perfect
Tonights recipe is what I had for supper, and I looooved it! I hope you will too, its a good alternative supper for a vegetarian, but pork chops can be substituted as well. I definitely recommend the eggplant and giving this a try. A word f warning however, you will have a few dished to deal with so be sure you have a good 2 hours to make this one.

Im diggin the warm weather lately (well, warm for a Canadian January), So I pulled out one of my yummiest summer recipes -although, this year I didnt get a chance to make it.. Stupid Basil thiefs! You can use either meat or cheese ravioli, cheese being the vegetarian option. Its very simple to prepare and is derived from my Nanna’s infamous pesto.

Bruschetta reminds me of a hot summer day, when its too hot to turn on the oven, and I only want to eat something cool and fresh-tasting. It also reminds me of Christmas colours, and makes an impressive appetizer for your holiday guests. Its also one of the healthier appetizers out there (although, I could go for a chicken wing any time ha), and is perfect before a heavier meal.
Ok, so the song only goes to 12 days, but we’re doing the 25 recipes of Christmas! So today I thought we would go veggie. Delicious, crispy fried zucchini and eggplant Parmesan. With just a few ingredients, these are a lovely hot appetizer, but slightly messy so serve with forks and knives!
The second of these pizza bite recipes is a cheese and pepperoni centered in a crusty garlic bread crust. You’ll love how simple and versatile the recipe is, so fiddle around with it and see what you can find!
I found this recipe while stumbling again, and these wonderful Cannelloni are inexpensive and feed 2 per average adult, 10 to a recipe. They freeze easily and heat up just as good. Try them out if you get an extra hour to make dinner, however these are not a simple school night dinner. They are a rainy day project, but are well worth it!
Tonight, for dinner as an accompaniment to fish, I wanted to make a very healthy side. At the grocery store I purchased an Eggplant and a Zucchini. Something you do not find in many students kitchens obviously, but I had wanted to include a bit more veg into my daily routine and figured I would try a method of cooking that I rarely use: Oven Roasting.
