I’m over the moon to be partnering with Egg Farmers of Canada and sharing with you this simple and delicious way to use eggs this holiday season with a Kale and Stuffing Strata. What’s a “strata” one may ask? It’s very similar to a bread pudding, but savoury and is usually a mix of bread, eggs and cheese. It’s a classic dish that’s great to have in your recipe repertoire as it’s easily adaptable to suit any ingredients you have on hand. I am a fan of repurposing leftovers and what better way to feed overnight guests than with quality Canadian eggs and holiday leftovers in a scrumptious one dish meal?

Holiday Rosemary Garlic Pork Roast

by 19 Comments

Christmas Day Dinner is possibly my favourite meal to plan and make every year. I love the elegant and grand feeling of it. The fact that family is all around and we’ll be up late chatting, eating, and sipping wine … perhaps a bit too much of all of those. 😉 Recent years and this year will have me serving a big roast on Christmas Day. I love turkey and ham, but I also make them frequently enough during the year that we don’t feel as though we’re missing out. A great way to create a show stopping centre piece for the main protein is to leave the bone-in. This Holiday Rosemary Garlic Pork Roast will wow guests with its crispy exterior and succulent interior. And you’ll be feeling grand from as little hands on work as possible!

Festivius for the rest of us – Pomegranate Lime Gimlet

by 15 Comments

I’ve been told many times that I’m an old soul. I’m unsure if this is something that is just me; not learned or anything, just always there, or if I’ve slowly acquired a taste for things that perhaps make me appear older than I am. Take cocktails for example, gin which most people associate with an older demographic is by far my favourite. And this Gimlet throwback to the 1920’s is definitely a new favourite. The fact that it’s colours are perfect for the holidays is a coincidence that makes me happy.

Eggnog Affogato

Eggnog Affogato

 

Perfect afternoon pick me up of Eggnog Affogato. I had eggnog that was about to go bad and thus, had to make ice cream. Eggnog Ice Cream has to be the simplest ice cream to make. Ever. It’s basically a custard so I added some booze (because it is the holidays) and churned it right up. It’s already even cold. Easier tun pie. Because pie is actually hard to make.
