This non-recipe recipe is so simple, it nearly never made it here. Make them for movie night, make them for Super Bowl…you decide when, but just make them. You won’t be disappointed.

This is the recipe that’s hardly a recipe. I’m really starting to see that exposure to fresh, whole, homemade foods has beneficially developed Emma’s and Katie’s tastes. For example, they enjoy our homemade hot chocolate made from steamed milk so much that when we go out, they choose to not drink hot chocolate made from water and powder. They are so enamoured with steak done on the Big Green Egg (BGE) that they don’t particularly enjoy steak when we eat […]

We are one month away from Spring. When the weather is like this, I’m reticent to bundle up the kids and head out in the evenings. Maybe it’s the 4-times-a-day bundle up/dress down that we go through every weekday. Perhaps it’s my own disdain for having to shovel snow every time we step outside this winter. Thank goodness there are foods like this to help us through the snowy, icy coldness that has taken hold. Thank goodness we have something […]

We love to snack. What’s it like in your household? Are you snackers or is there one among you? Katie certainly is. When she’s on the move, which is always, she’s happiest when she has something delectable within easy reach. Emma loves to feel prepared for anything and so, in addition to tissues, hand sanitizer, spare books, an extra pencil and eraser, she often has a snack (or two!) in her school bag to enjoy during recesses. All this snacking […]

This is the ultimately customizable meal. Often, parents complain about having to make multiple meals in order to accommodate their kids’ requirements. These tostadas truly are a perfect meal. No matter the tastes at the table, everyone can find a combination that suits them. It comes together in a flash which makes it just right for a weeknight dinner or for an impromptu casual dinner party. The kids will have fun as they can “choose-their-own-adventure” from the wide assortment of […]

So it’s not paper, or silver. Not ruby nor gold. This post is an anniversary of sorts. It’s my 100th EmmaEats…and Katie too! post. Maybe we should have fireworks or champagne. No – let’s have cake. And chocolate. Mmmmm – chocolate cake. This particular cake was adapted from Molly Wizenberg’s Winning Hearts and Minds Cake over at Orangette. Truth be told, Molly’s site and writing influenced me to start EmmaEats and to focus my culinary efforts here. And her cake […]

So we’re a little late to the party. Edamame has been popular for years. Seriously — if you wiki edamame, you’ll find that the earliest mentions of it date back to 1275. It wasn’t popular here in North America that far back, and at our house, it only started making frequent appearances this past spring and summer. And even then, it was by accident! I’m not certain how we haven’t been enjoying edamame prior to that but am thrilled that […]

Fashion. Wine. Food. The French are known for good taste and it reflects across so many aspects of life. We’ve travelled to France, both on our own and with Emma, and we all long to return. Whether it’s the lingering drives through the countryside, inviting wine cellars in Chablis, Beaune and Epernay, and the never-ending and storybook-like landmarks of Paris — we find ourselves smitten. One common thread wherever we travel in France is the incredible food. And access to this […]

Earlier this week, I was reading about Jamie Oliver and Food Revolution Day coming up on May 19th. The theme “Bring Food Education Back” made me think about one of the reasons EmmaEats came about – to help inspire families in their kitchens. As I read on, I learned that food education is not compulsory in schools worldwide. How disappointing for kids today! I learned so much back in Home Economics class. Do you remember having to take Home Ec and about […]
