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 […]

Get the Balance Right — Homemade Caramel Corn, 4 ways

August 9, 2012 by EmmaEats

We’re fresh off a visit to Disney World. One of Emma’s favourite Disney treats, among the many, is caramel corn. In general, it’s off-limits since most varieties are plastered with peanut warnings or contain added nuts. So we’re not talking just any caramel corn here. This is a nut-free, explicitly-stated-on-the-package kind which we only find at one shop over on Main Street. On past trips, we’ve even returned home with a few bags. This time, however, we didn’t have to! […]

Made for a prince(ss)

September 9, 2011 by EmmaEats

August was a hot and stormy month around here. On top of the heat, our oven was suddenly on the fritz. Not that I would have turned on the oven in our already hot kitchen. However, this meant that my dessert-baking obsession was taking a serious beating throughout that time. As I’ve mentioned before, when Emma has friends coming by, she selects what treat she’d like to have for the visit. We were preparing to have some friends by for […]

Scones - plain, lemon cranberry and pumpkin spice

Hello baby! – Lemon Cranberry Scones

July 22, 2011 by EmmaEats

It has been awhile! I’m happy to be posting again, and happy that you’re here reading. Things at Emma’s have been pretty topsy-turvy as of late — mainly because at the end of June, we welcomed a new member into our family: Katie. That’s right, Emma’s a big sister now. And, the first two weeks after Katie’s arrival lulled me into a false sense of security — and then BAM! she doesn’t sleep consistently anymore, all routines are blown away […]

C is for Cookie… — Chocolate Chip Cranberry Cookie Bars

May 26, 2011 by EmmaEats

It has been a long time since my last post on EmmaEats. It’s certainly not been because Emma hasn’t been eating (well, we had a small spell of that when everyone here was sick for a few days!), however, things got a little busy here. G was travelling up a storm for work, we then had a delightful holiday to Paris, on our return, got sick, were catching Emma up on all of her missed classes/lessons, preparing for the arrival […]

In between meals… — Chewy Cranberry Chocolate Chip Granola Bars

March 3, 2011 by EmmaEats

Most of our friends (with and without children) are always looking for healthy, portable, easy to assemble snacks. When I was pregnant with Emma, I was looking for the same. I ate many All Bran bars, blueberries, Babybel cheeses and baby cut carrots, and although it satisfied my need to eat constantly, I would have been happier to have a bit more variety. I posted a granola recipe awhile back that is incredibly popular in our household and thought would […]

I love love love this time of the year. We’ve been enjoying baskets of peaches and plums. And, we are back to being able to harvesting the goodness to which we’ve been tending all summer long. . Today that includes fresh herbs and tomatoes from our garden in a PYO Black Bean Salad with grilled sausages - something for everyone. . What are you enjoying from this summer’s bounty? . #yummy #delicious #instagood #instafood #bbq #instadinner #eatwhatyoulove #eattherainbow #healthyfood #glutenfree #dinner #summer #saladsofinstagram #veggiesofinsta #homemade #foodoftheday #foodstagram #onthetable #timetoeat #damnthatsdelish #fbcigers #igerstoronto #emmaeats @canadianfoodies

It’s only Wednesday - wishing it was the weekend and we were enjoying more of this! . #wednesdayvibes #weekendvibes #cottagevibes #summerfun #iscreamforicecream #ptbo #centralsmith yummy #delicious #instagood #instadessert #sugarrush #dessert #somethingforeveryone #fbcigers #igerstoronto #emmaeats @canadianfoodies

Happy Long Weekend, Canadian friends! . We seem to have developed this delightful summer ritual — which includes the kids — where we congregate outside shortly before the sun goes down, share drinks + appetizers on the deck. We get to experience the beautiful light of the evening as well as one another’s company. It’s become a wonderful way to reconnect daily, even if it’s just for a short time before we start dinner and head into our evening routines. . Here’s hoping you enjoy your long weekend and it’s filled with fun that brings you together with your favourite people! . Ginger Lemon Fizz (Gingerale + lemonade + lemon + fresh mint) and Peach Sunset (Peach juice + sparkling water + splash of grenadine + fresh raspberries) . #weekendvibes #summerfun #civicholiday #familyrituals #yummy #delicious #instagood #happyhour #drinks #mocktaildrinks #mocktaillove #somethingforeveryone #summerdrinks #mocktails #onthetable #fbcigers #igerstoronto #emmaeats @canadianfoodies

Because it’s summer, and we can! . Enjoying @central_smith ice cream sandwiches and Polar Plunge ice cream. Does this count as dinner? . #yummy #delicious #instagood #instafood #eatwhatyoulove #dessert #summerfun #iscreamyouscreamweallscreamforicecream #chocolate #sweettooth #sugarrush #foodoftheday #foodstagram #cookies #damnthatsdelish #fbcigers #igerstoronto #emmaeats @canadianfoodies

More easy summer cooking, outside of the kitchen! . Grilled Fish with Nachos and Guacamole - pick your fish, season with your favourite (homemade) taco seasoning and grill away. So little effort for so much flavour! . #yummy #delicious #instagood #instafood #bbq #instadinner #eatwhatyoulove #eattherainbow #toohotinthekitchen #winnerwinnerfishydinner #healthyfood #glutenfree #dinner #summer #homemade #foodoftheday #foodstagram #onthetable #timetoeat #damnthatsdelish #fbcigers #igerstoronto #emmaeats @canadianfoodies

Summertime and dinner’s easy! . Make-ahead Warm Potato Salad - DIY-style so it’s customized for everyone. I love meals like these. . #yummy #delicious #instagood #instafood #instadinner #eatwhatyoulove #eattherainbow #toohotinthekitchen #veganfood #healthyfood #glutenfree #dinner #summer #homemade #foodoftheday #foodstagram #onthetable #timetoeat #damnthatsdelish #fbcigers #igerstoronto #emmaeats @canadianfoodies

During summer heatwaves, our air conditioner just can’t keep up. In fact, yesterday, the thermostat in our dining room read 29C. We’ve been known to eat by LED candlelight - it’s very romantic when we aren’t sweating so much! . As a result, our (indoor) kitchen closes for a significant window in the summer and the barbecue becomes the primary place for food prep. We’ve made many meals of chili, fish tacos, pizza and chicken paprikas. All without ever turning on the stove. . Tonight was one of those nights, taking advantage not only of the barbecue but also of the bounty of fresh, colourful summer vegetables and herbs available. This grilled vegetable ratatouille is filled with so much goodness and perfect with wedges of grilled flatbreads for soaking up the soupy goodness. . What are you making these days to keep your kitchens cool? . #yummy #delicious #instagood #instafood #instadinner #meatlessmonday #eatwhatyoulove #eattherainbow #toohotinthekitchen #veganfood #healthyfood #glutenfree #dinner #summer #bbq #homemade #foodoftheday #foodstagram #onthetable #timetoeat #damnthatsdelish #fbcigers #igerstoronto #emmaeats @canadianfoodies

Happy FRIYAY! . Friend Friday seems like the right day to refill our cookie reserves. And for playing around - I tried using self-rising flour in these and mixing them by hand, the of-fashioned way. Tasty and much more puffy than our usual chocolate chip cookies. 😊 . #sharingiscaring . Fluffy Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies . #yummy #delicious #instagood #instafood #instacookies #friendfriday #eatwhatyoulove #dessert #bakersofinstagram #bakersgonnabake #homebaking #homemade #bakefromscratch #chocolate #sweettooth #sugarrush #foodoftheday #foodstagram #onthetable #cookies #weekendvibes #timetoeat #damnthatsdelish #fbcigers #igerstoronto #emmaeats @canadianfoodies
