Happy Thanksgiving to all my American friends and followers.  Hope you have a wonderful day with your family and friends.  

Cooking for One

Nothing too exciting coming out of my kitchen this week.  Moe has been out of town since Thursday so I have been cooking for myself. Thursday night I made a chicken stew with dumplings (No pictures) and took leftovers to work on Friday for lunch.  Friday night I had toast and tea for dinner.  At…

This Week’s Bread

 As you have probably noticed it has become my routine to bake bread on my days off work  This week I spread the baking over two days.   Three baguettes were baked on Tuesday using half a batch of dough.  The other half went back into the fridge and was baked on Wednesday morning becoming four…

Stuffed Baby Back Ribs

I don’t know if this is a “Canadian”dish or not, but I posted it years ago on the Cooking Forum and the only other person that was familiar with it was a fellow Canadian.  This is a dish my mom used to make. This is so good.  The sage dressing both flavours and is flavoured…

Grilled Leg of Lamb Greek Style

 I bought a small butterflied leg of lamb. Fresh local lamb. Doesn’t get any better.  Presalted it on Thursday and before leaving for work on Friday I rubbed with lots of garlic, oregano, black pepper and the zest of a lemon.    The juice of a lemon was drizzled over the lamb about half an hour…

Definitely Carnivores

I still had a small Sirloin Tip roast in the freezer so it became our Tuesday night’s dinner.  With simple sides of mashed potatoes and buttered peas.   The roast took all of 30 minutes on high heat (500°F) to roast. Last night’s dinner was grilled pork chops seasoned with just salt, pepper and fresh garlic…

Grilled Baby Back Ribs with an Asian Twist

I was planning  on grilling Greek Style Baby Back Ribs for dinner tonight.  But after seeing Lori’s  (All That Splatters) Asian Lime Ribs I was inspired to try something Asian. The ribs were rubbed with fresh garlic, salt, pepper and the juice from a lemon.   Grilled until tender and then served with an Asian dipping…
