This is one of those dinners that I don’t make often. And then I wonder why. A ground pork mixture seasoned Asian style.Spooned into lettuce leaves andtopped with cilantro and bean sprouts and served with a spicy sauce. I’m definitely going to make this more often.

I love good food so it helps that I love to cook. And I have a husband that is happy to eat anything I want to feed him.
German "Baked" Pancake with Peaches
I had some local peaches that were at the just perfect ripe stage so I decided to make something for breakfast using them. Found this recipe for a German Pancake on the Hunger, Hunger (A Daily Obsession) blog. There was enough batter to make one for Moe and a second one that I sent over…
Our 30th Anniversary Dinner
Time really does fly when you are having fun. I can’t believe that we have been married for 30 years. And together for 36. Dinner needed to be something special. Chateaubriand Saturday I bought a beautiful piece of beef tenderloin weighing just under 2 1/2 pounds. I presalted it and wrapped it in plastic and…

Julia Child’s Coq Au Vin
Poor Moe, he had to wait until almost 8:00 for dinner. I decided to make Coq au Vin. Probably not the smartest idea I have had recently. Not exactly the best meal to start cooking after 5:30. I had to stop at the grocery store on the way home from work to pick up the…
Prawn Cocktail with Salsa Fresca and Avocado
I pulled some local spot prawns out of the freezer when I got home from work. While they were defrosting I made a fresh salsa using tomatoes from our garden. It only took one minute to poach the prawns. Moe loved dinner and it couldn’t have been any simpler. Salsa Fresca topped with chilled prawns…
Roast Chicken Dinner…….Encore!!!!!
It has been almost a month since I roasted a chicken so we were overdue. Explains why we both were craving our favourite dinner.I presalted the chicken Tuesday night and covered with plastic wrap. The chicken was uncovered Thursday morning and left to air dry all day. Moe took the chicken out of the fridge…
Peach Shortcakes
I love, love summer. (I know I’ve mentioned that before). Not only are local corn and tomatoes available, but now peaches are also in season. I’m not as much of a “fruit lover” as Moe is, but I do love fresh peaches. Fresh not cooked. And, they have to be peeled. I can’t eat peach…
Mushroom Pizza
I made a double batch of bread dough yesterday – baked three baguettes and saved the other half of the dough to make a pizza for tonight’s dinner. A mushroom pizza. New York style. Thin crust in the middle with a slightly thicker outside crust. I love a pizza crust made from dough that has…
Walnut "Butter" Tart
Butter Tarts are a Canadian treat. I’ve never had them outside of Canada. I made a pastry for two single crusts today and used a little more than half to make a quiche . I had enough dough left for a small tart so rather than make individual butter tarts I made one big one….
