With the onset of spring and warmer days ahead I find myself craving salads. Good ol' fashioned potato and macaroni salad take us back to summers as kids and the side salads our moms would make for picnics and bbq's. But if you're craving something with a "bit more", why not try this delicious salad. Hope you enjoy! Curried Quinoa Salad 1 cup quinoa, rinsed and drained 1 tbsp + 1/3 cup olive oil 1/2 cup chopped shallots 1 tsp curry …

When the phone gets to eat first, everyone gets to enjoy! Burritos de la Roqueta, filled with carnitas (slow-cooked pork) and served with ranchero sauce, melted cheese, and pico de gallo.

Beef Ribs make a great dinner and because they are on the bone gives that extra beefy flavour. Start off with using a slow cooker and I usually cook them on high for about 6.5 to 7 hours. Once that is completed then its finished in the broiler on high for about 3 minutes per side. You can slather them with any BBQ sauce of your choice or just salt & pepper.

Top o' the Mornin' to Ya! St. Patrick's Day with the O'Donnells Monday marks St. Patrick's Day, and as an O'Donnell, let me tell you, this holiday holds a special place in our hearts! It's more than just a day for green beer; it's a celebration of heritage, family, and good old-fashioned Irish cheer. My husband's family has deep roots in Guelph, owning one of the city's very first "pubs" that was located right in the heart of downtown. And …

I am feeling salad tonight. I pulled this favourite from our "family" cookbook, Meah created a few years back. (I will reference this book ALOT!).This salad is tried and tested, I skip the tarragon. We have avocado and strawberries on hand (on sale at Zehrs for $1.99), we always have spinach because we use it in smoothies, and we often simply use the frozen cooked chicken strips from Costco. These are a staple in our house!!

What's was for dinner tonight? Shepherd's Pie in our house. This time I only used ground beef but in the past I've used a combination of beef and pork, traditionally speaking it should to be lamb. What I've technically made is Cottage Pie. What do you make, Shepherds Pie or Cottage Pie?

Fast and cheap dinner hack: Costco cooked Chicken $7.99= 1/2 used= $4 Costco Caesar Salade $12.16 = 1/2 used =$6.08 Total cost for a meal for 4 = $10.08 prep time = 10 minutes For those that know me, you know we have made our own Caesar Salad dressing for years!! (Most of you have the recipe but I will post another day). With the cost of Romain lettuce these days and the poor quality of lettuce I have found this ready-to-go kit a better …
