Mexican-Style Quinoa with Pulled Pork

Mexican-Style Quinoa with Pulled Pork

February 7, 2013 by EmmaEats

Where did January go? And why does it seem that it felt like the end of winter and the beginning of spring? Because, you know, it’s not. We still have more than a month before spring is here. Since winter is still here (and we started to feel it again last weekend — so long balmy, rainy days, welcome back snow, wind and ice), we may as well make the best of it. Enjoy the Sunday afternoon skating, the marshmallows […]

Chicken Sausage Shrimp Gumbo

Chicken Sausage and Shrimp Gumbo

November 22, 2012 by EmmaEats

Gumbo. Creole. Etouffee. Jambalaya. Mmmmmm. Emma has a bit of a love affair with New Orleans. After reading some Princess and the Frog books (she hasn’t watched the movie yet — how will she react to the Shadow Man and his compatriots?!) and hearing about Princess Tiana enjoying her father’s gumbo, she became intrigued with it. Here we go again: she shows the interest and I’m all too happy to introduce her to something new. This isn’t gumbo the truest […]

Chicken Tagine with Preserved Lemons and Olives

Chicken Tagine with Preserved Lemons and Olives

November 8, 2012 by EmmaEats

I’m not ready for cold weather but I am ready for more warm food. This kind of food. Emma’s first exposure to Moroccan food was at Epcot in the Moroccan pavilion. She loved the music and the dancing. G and I loved the food. She thought of Aladdin and Princess Jasmine. We thought of warm complex spices, flavourful sweet dates and preserved lemons. With Emma’s love for “all things Moroccan”, we couldn’t let this opportunity pass to introduce some Moroccan […]

Risotto with Roasted Butternut Squash, Pancetta and Mushrooms

Risotto with Roasted Butternut Squash, Pancetta and Mushrooms

October 31, 2012 by EmmaEats

And so it begins. It’s the season where we’re all cold until Spring. Whether it’s raining or snowing, windy or cloudy, or because the days are now so short, we all crave comfort and warmth at this time of year – deeply breathing in the hot steam rolling off of a morning coffee, pulling a scarf higher as you step outside or reaching for a warm blanket when tucking into that novel as the wind howls outside the window. We used […]

Whole Wheat Banana Flax Baked Pancakes on fresh fruit skewers

I can make it on time — Whole Wheat Banana Flax Baked Pancakes

September 27, 2012 by EmmaEats

There is no longer any reason to start your morning without pancakes. Even when you’re running late. Like you, I try to do my best to provide a well-rounded healthy breakfast for my kids. Even though it only takes a few minutes to scramble an egg in the microwave/make toast/have a half a banana, somehow, that is too much to coordinate some mornings. Overhearing Emma’s teacher asking the children what they had for breakfast one morning got me thinking. Nearly […]

Flank Steak Roulade on the Big Green Egg

Kiss of Fire — Flank Steak Roulade

September 20, 2012 by EmmaEats

Back when Katie was a mere 4 weeks old, an old friend came to stay with us for a few days. We hadn’t seen him in years and hoped it would be a good visit – one where we’d have an enjoyable time reconnecting. We also hoped we could somehow manage to feed, water and entertain our houseguest while simultaneously caring for our kids. And we really hoped we would not send him screaming after being exposed our new insanity. […]

Granola and Berry Parfait

Here comes the sun – Granola and Berry Breakfast Parfaits

September 11, 2012 by EmmaEats

Some mornings, we’re in a rush. Maybe I should say many mornings we’re in a rush. Ok, perhaps most mornings. Are your mornings the same? Happy back-to-school – hopefully it’s been a good start to the year for you all. We’ve had a fantastic start which means although it is a 3-minute walk door-to-door to Emma’s school, we’ve only had to run out the door to get there on time once. For us, that’s stellar! I attribute our new found […]

Spelt Crumb Cake with Fruit Swirl

Let them eat cake — Spelt Crumb Cake with Fruit Swirl

August 23, 2012 by EmmaEats

Finally, the heat of the summer broke — at least long enough for us to bake this cake. And eat it. Four times. In one week. At first, I thought the lack of baked desserts around here the past few weeks spurred my family’s great desire for cake. But now I’ve realized, this is just a really good cake.  It’s light and fluffy and it falls into tasty little crumbly bits on to your plate that are too good to […]
