Grilled Fish Tacos with Cherry and Jicama Salsa

What a light and refreshing way to eat tacos for the summer months (or anytime of year for that matter because they are just so delicious and easy)! Grill these outside on the barbeque for the summer parties or inside on a grill pan for a quiet night in. It’s the perfect updated barbeque dish and such a… Read More

Butter Chicken Pizza

I really have no words to describe how delicious this pizza tastes. It was buttery, creamy, spicy, comforting, herby, heaven on earth in my mouth. I think Indian food is one of the most flavourful, aromatic cuisines and every time I make something with all of these delicious spices I just can’t wait to eat it. Sure, there… Read More

Poutine Nachos, eh?

Oh Canada! Home of moose, hockey, beer and poutine. There are so many beautiful places and wonderful people in Canada. I haven’t traveled around my native country as much as I would like but I have seen a few stunning cities.

I absolutely loved them and especially loved cooking them for my family upon my return back to Canada after a crazy busy, fun-filled week in New York City. These and… Read More

Sweet and Spicy ‘Un-fried’ Chicken with Red, White and Blue Sauces

‘Merica. Land of the free and home of the delicious fried food.  For this Fourth of July, I decided to make something a little healthier than your typical fried chicken. I breaded the chicken in panko and baked it in the oven instead of frying in oil but it still came out with a crispy… Read More

Moroccan Chicken Salad

I absolutely love the vibrant flavours and colours of Moroccan spices and ingredients. Although I haven’t been there, I was still inspired by the culture to make this dish, and I did, technically, see the country. That counts for something, right? It was back when I was working for Disney Cruise Line and we made… Read More
