Recipe: Huevos Rancheros
Huevos rancheros is the perfect hearty breakfast. The name huevos rancheros comes from the hearty breakfast eaten on rural Mexican farms and we had it on Tuesday morning for breakfast as part of our 3 day 5 year anniversary menu plan – so good. This dish takes a bit of prep work, but it’s worth it. Let’s get started. Ingredeints 4 corn tortillas 1/2 cup of shredded cheese 1 cup of refried black beans 2 tablespoons of olive oil 4 large eggs 1/4 cup of…

Recipe: Broccoli Cheddar Bacon Salad
Broccoli cheddar bacon salad – it’s so good and hearty because of the broccoli. Oh, and gluten free of course. Bryce and I celebrated our 5 year wedding anniversary this past Saturday. Well, celebrated is a loose term – I worked from 6am – 2pm, getting home around 2:20pm and Bryce worked from 3pm – 3am, and leaving for work around 2:08pm. As such, we totally missed each other and spent our 5 year apart. When we looked at the calendar in May, trying to…

Taste of Edmonton 2016
Taste of Edmonton 2016 – some great food and a few repeats from last year – Taste of Edmonton 2015. Above, that’s me dressed as a Taste of Edmonton chef – so ridiculous. The event is on until July 30 – you should check it out before it’s over. Tickets are $1.58 per, and you can buy them in groups of 5 – 10 – 20 – 40. This year we got 40 tickets which is what we got last year. In all honesty, 40…

We had a great two days in Hong Kong and you can, too. Keep reading below and take some advise from me. If something is good and gluten free while you’re travelling then eat up. Just eat up! Hong Kong is full of street markets and some of the food looked so…

Recipe: Campfire Avocado Mash
Campfire avocado mash – this was our breakfast on day one while we were camping in Glacier National Park in Montana. So fun! I called ahead to see what I could bring food-wise across the border. I couldn’t bring meat or eggs. So, we stopped at the St. Mary’s Grocery Store, yet they were out of eggs. No…I was going to make Guac-Eggers. Bummer. I’ll have to make them another time. What I did find, however, was this smoked chicken breast and it’s gluten free…

Recipe: Black Bean Burger Bombs
Black bean burger bombs are a take on my black bean burgers. This time, however, we stuff them into onions and cook them over the campfire! They’re going to be super good and full of flavour. I made them ahead of time then put them in the freezer – that way, they help keep the other foods in the cooler cold. Then, in the evening, after we’ve set up our campsite, just in time for dinner, they’ll be unthawed a bit and ready for the…

Recipe: Steak Fries
Steak fries on this fabulous Friday. Why steak fries? Because I love potatoes and they are chunk and will hold up to the juices of a steak, not that I eat steak. Oh, and the steak spices. These fries are similar to the baked fries I made a while ago. Yet, these ones have the skin on them still – extra nutrients! Don’t get me wrong – you don’t need to eat these with steak. They are great to eat as a snack, with a…
