Apple Pie with Streusel Topping

 I had some apples that I wanted to use up and decided to make a pie. Looking for something different than my traditional apple pie, I found a recipe for a Sour Cream Apple Pie with Streusel Topping on  Simply Recipes I was out of Sour Cream so I used Greek Yogurt.   I often substitute…

Corned Brisket

This was the best corned “beef” I’ve ever  made. This was not your typical corned beef.   It was a “Corned Brisket” from Vancouver Island’s Natural Pastures Beef. Pasture raised,  hormone, antibiotic, chemical free,  Angus beef. I’ve never been a real fan of the typical corned beef and cabbage “St. Patrick’s Day” meal. I wanted something…

Ginger Chicken

Inspired by Val who shared her recipe on More Than Burnt Toast. I had nothing planned for dinner so decided at the last minute that I would make Ginger Chicken. Pulled three small chicken breasts from the freezer and sliced them while they were still almost frozen. Moe doesn’t care for soy sauce, so I made…

Grilled Burgers on Homemade Kaiser "Buns"

What could be easier to make on a work night than Grilled Burgers. I pulled a couple of homemade Kaisers from the freezer for the buns.  And the fries were oven fried.  I love the time change.  I got to grill while there was still day light.

Pulled Pork on Homemade Kaiser Rolls

Moe’s appetite is still off so I’ve been making very simple dinners. What is more simple than a sandwich. I rubbed a little pork shoulder with lots of garlic (grated on a microplane), salt, pepper and Chipotle Chili Pepper.  Slow roasted at 300°F  (in covered roasting pan) until fork tender. About three hours. I needed…

Pork Chile Verde

This is one of my favourite meals.  You can use any cut of pork, but my preference is a pork butt or shoulder. It can be served in bowls, like chili accompanied by homemade flour tortillas. Or Or over flour tortillas filled with cheese. With a side of beans. I used the leftovers to make…

Pita and French Bread

Got a late start on making bread yesterday. Didn’t start the process until after 2:00 PM. About the time the bread was ready to shape, it was also dinner time and I hadn’t planned anything. (We had lunch out and I didn’t think either of us would be very hungry – I was wrong.) So,…

A Catch-Up Post

The last couple of weeks have been busy with Moe trying to get some boards made  before his surgery next Monday. He is having rotator cuff surgery on his left shoulder. This injury has put a crimp into his board making. We have still been eating well though. Some of our recent meals. Greek Style…
