Day 4 of 5 Days of Pasta and today I give you an Emeril Lagasse recipe from his new cookbook, Emeril’s Potluck. I was fortunate to have won this cookbook through a giveaway that #SundaySupper was hosting. This cookbook has very few pictures but page after page of amazing recipes.

I wanted to try something from it and so today I give you Penne a la Vodka Casserole. This dish I make thinking of my dad. He would have loved this recipe. He was a huge fan of Italian food and loved pasta, most of all a cream/tomato sauce. This one is for you dad, Happy Father’s Day!! This pasta casserole is so full of flavor, with two kinds of sausage and lots of cheese!! Emeril’s recipes are always a sure fire hit. We enjoyed this very much and I hope you do. ENJOY!!

Stuffed Pasta Shells

Posted on by

That’s What I Think (TWIT) Review

Day 3 of 5 Days of Pasta. Ken selected this dish from our QOOQ tablet that we have on the counter. There seems like an endless stream of gorgeous pictures displayed on it. I am always thinking, oh I have to try that one or that looks so delicious. I love having the pretty red tablet on our counter top and at the ready for me to pick up and glance through at any time.

qooq-a-plat-en (Small)

The recipes are easy to follow but sometimes they omit an ingredient quantity I have discovered. Most of the time it is pretty easy to figure out. The tablet can do whatever you like it to do, check on facebook, the weather, play songs, you know, the list is endless. Plus it is downloaded with tons of recipes and videos with chefs tips and techniques to help you with loads of recipes. There are explanations on ingredients with background information. You can create meal plans, shopping lists etc. The list of what you can do with tablet is endless. You can also purchase additional recipes and continue to fill your tablet with your favorites.

As I said Ken choose this recipe and it is perfect to go with our 5 days of cheesy pasta. The ingredients are simple and this made a very flavorful entree. Maybe we didn’t stuff the shells as much as they did but I found that the recipe made two 9×13″ pans of stuffed shells. Lucky me I have one in the freezer. I love that!! Enjoy!!

We start off 5 Days of Pasta with this delicious and super easy baked spaghetti. When I asked you all what you would like to see 5 Days of, I had an over whelming response with pasta and then the second was cheese. So I give you 5 Days of cheesy pastas.

This would be a great way to use leftover pasta too. I have incorporated an Epicure dip mix into the middle layer and you can easily purchase this if you are in Canada from my website here. If you are not from here you can substitute another onion dip mix, it gives some nice flavor to that layer and it is easy. Enjoy!!

Raspberry, Chicken, Feta and Hemp Salad for #TheSaladBar

Posted on by
32

I have joined another monthly group and this one is all about salads!! I love a big huge fresh salad for dinner. Nothing better!! There are so many variations it is simply endless. Instead of adding all the links in we have a linky party. So at the bottom of the post click into see all the wonderful recipes. With summer almost here, these will be so helpful for a fast, nutritious and delicious meal.

The Salad Bar (Custom)

This month’s theme is berries so that is an easy one!! We all love berries here. The little extra I added to this salad is hemp seeds. I know it conjures up images of marijuana and hippies but it is a different variety of the same cannabis plant. Hemp is a seed, a high protein seed containing all nine of the essential amino acid, just like flax. It also has high amounts of fatty acids and fiber. It contains vitamin E and trace minerals. Hmmm, that’s a pretty nice thing to add to your salad plus it tastes so good. I hope you love all of our salads. ENJOY!!

Salpicao Brazilian Salad

Posted on by

I am having a guest here today but we are sharing the stage together as I have made her recipe and took the picture. Lisa is a friend that Ken has had since grade 7. Lisa went on to become an international super model, who appeared on the front of Vogue and many other magazines. She has traveled the world over and lived in Rio De Janeiro for many years. Recently Lisa came over to give Amber lessons on modelling, poise, clothes, makeup etc. Important and fun things for a 12 year old girl. In our time together we of course also chatted about food. She graciously shared this amazing salad recipe with us and I am now sharing it with you today. Here is a photo of Lisa and what she has to say about this fabulous salad that I will be making again and again. I now give you Lisa Kauffmann.

Lisa Kauffmann

It is a traditional chicken salad from Brazil. It is a great summer food and comes in handy when you are a bit pressed for time (also a good way of using a store bought BBQ chicken) and want to make something great for a summer pot luck. . In this case, prepare all of the ingredients and put them in separate containers to transport and combine them all into the serving dish when ready to serve.

Some Salpicao recipes ask for mayonnaise, but I am not a fan of mayo in the summer so that is why I substitute the olive oil (healthier too).

Some people add green peas as well, but in Brazil they are from a can so they don’t have the same taste as fresh or frozen, that is why I don’t put them in. They can be optional.

For it to be a true Salpicao, it needs the string potatoes on top.

Herbed Pork Tenderloin with Wild Blueberry Sauce for #SundaySupper

Posted on by
79

Today on #SundaySupper we are celebrating Summer Berries. I love every kind of berry there is!! When I was looking through the list of contributors there were lots of desserts and sweet items, makes sense with luscious sweet berries this time of year. That got me thinking though, to go a savory route.

My girlfriend Trisha shared a pork tenderloin recipe with me years ago that she had got from Canadian Living. We have made this many times and it is great with fresh flavorful berries this time of year. In a little while wild berries will be showing up too and you can use those as they will have even more flavor. I remember picking blueberries out in B.C. many years ago and loving them so much!! Instead of the apple, that the recipe called for I added a Bartlett pear and loved the combination of the pear/blueberry. Served up with some delicious organic carrots, asparagus and potatoes, this was a delicious meal. Pork tenderloin is so conducive to a sweet and savory sauce like this. ENJOY!!

Posted on by

That’s What I Think (TWIT) Review

Today we have another book review. This one was easy to love as we already have the first edition. They have added more recipes to this edition. It is a cookbook that Ken goes to again and again for either recipes or inspiration for his smoker. Yup, we are talking about our smoker again. More of you really need to invest in this inexpensive and delicious way of cooking food. There are smokers that you have to babysit all day or night long but getting a small electric one is the way to go. So easy!! Nuff said!!

Championship BBQ Secrets

Back to this book. It goes in depth page after page on the art of smoking. A really helpful guide for people that have never done this before. It also delves into the world of competitive BBQ and all that it entails. The best part of the cookbook is, of course, the recipes and we have done many out of the first edition. Today I give you these mouth watering, finger licking, delicious wings. If you have invested in a smoker this cookbook is an absolute must!!

Picnic Basket Buttermilk Fried Chicken for #SundaySupper

Posted on by
75

I was super excited for this #SundaySupper. I have never made fried chicken and thought it would be perfect of course for a picnic, which is today’s theme. I knew exactly the kind of chicken I wanted to make. Super crispy double dipped buttermilk fried chicken. The kind that you see everyone make on TV and that makes you drool.

 

I looked quickly at a recipe from Epicurious and off I went to create our own. They brined their chicken but I didn’t have time for that nor did I want to. Nothing against brining as we do it a lot when Ken smokes his chicken or turkey.

I also wanted to do a whole chicken as I remember Ken was given a lesson on how to butcher one properly when he did a BBQ smoking class. So I watched him and learned. I knew that I wanted to dredge it in a spiced flour then buttermilk and then back in flour to get an amazing crust. Ken set up the whole production in our garage. Great idea so that it didn’t stink up the house!! He then cooked this chicken to perfection for us. We succeeded making a fabulous crunchy and still juicy chicken. I think anyone would be happy to have this in their picnic basket. Here is the chicken in our picnic basket. ENJOY!!!
