Crispy Baked Potato Wedges

March 25, 2014 by EmmaEats

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 […]

Carrot Sweet Potato Soup

Sweet Potato and Carrot Soup, 2 ways

January 24, 2013 by EmmaEats

We’re in the thick of it now. Winter. Absolutely-frigid-toes-frozen-huddled-under-a-blanket winter. In my last post on fudge, foregoing all extravagances cold turkey as part of a New Year’s resolution was excessive. Moderation is the key and this sweet potato and carrot soup tastes indulgent, but really isn’t. G and I have been eating versions of this for years. My old favourite is made with butternut squash. After enjoying this version a few times, it’s climbed into top spot. It’s straight-forward and simple […]

There has been a lot of soup, stew, and comfort food at our house these days. Although our winter has been short, Mother Nature has decided to squeeze in as much snow/ice/greyness as she can - I’m certain all of us will be extra appreciative of the sunshine when it finally arrives in the spring! . #tbt to this Moroccan-style Chicken Tagine with Preserved Lemons and Olives. Warm and fragrant, it’s different enough to make a midweek meal seem like something special. Served with a side of couscous (which incidentally I flavour like the rice in the recipe), and it’s the perfect meal. .

Hope you’re enjoying a happy 💕 day today. I made a little something extra to share from me to you: Toffee-filled Brownie Heart Pops. Because if there’s any day to go totally over the top, why not have it be today? . . . . #valentines #galentines #delicious #yummy #instagood #instafood #bakersofinstagram #bakersgonnabake #homebaking #homemade #bakefromscratch #kingarthurflour #toffee #chocolate #brownies #sweettooth #sugarrush #foodoftheday #foodstagram #timetoeat #onthetable #holidaybaking #livethelittlethings #pursuepretty #dessert #fbcigers #igerstoronto #eatwhatyoulove #damnthatsdelish #thebakefeed @canadianfoodies
Often, as a parent, meal decisions are driven by what the kids would like to eat. At our house, that means lots of pancakes when biscuits would be preferred, fruit instead of veg, pasta instead of fish and so on - you probably understand. For Valentine’s Day however, no one should feel left out! . This dish ticks the boxes for everyone. These lamb shanks are braised in red wine (happy for the grownups) until they are fork-tender and absolutely delicious; the aroma as it simmers away in the kitchen will have your mouth watering! Add a side dish of pasta or fresh bread and we have a win for the kids too. .

While we’ve really only been feeling winter for barely a month here, I don’t think I’m alone when I say I’ve had enough! . In the search for some good in this miserable season, we’ve been enjoying bowls of cozy and comfort in these Slow-cooked (Deconstructed) Cabbage Rolls. Seasoned the way I remember my mom and grandmother used to make, made easier by eliminating the extra rolling effort. It improves with taste as it rests which makes it perfect for making ahead for two or for twenty, depending on how you’ll be celebrating Valentine’s Day (or not!). . Happy Snow Day instaFriends! . . #snowday #valentines #galentines #yummy #delicious #instagood #instafood #eatrealfood #homemade #madefromscratch #realfood #comfortfood #foodoftheday #cabbage #cabbagerolls #slowfood #foodstagram #timetoeat #dinnerisserved #onthetable #inmykitchen #dinner #lunch #beautifulcuisines #damnthatsdelish #pursuepretty #fbcigers #igerstoronto @canadianfoodies
When I start procrasti-baking, biscotti is often my first choice - an infinite combination of flavours to choose from and I don’t need to eat them all right away. These little babies first made an appearance last fall, then again at Christmas and now again for Valentine’s Day. . . These White Chocolate Cranberry Biscotti (and now cookies) come together very quickly, and in case you want some for later, freeze beautifully both before or after baking. Gild the lily by dipping them into a little more white chocolate. Absolutely irresistible! . . #delicious #yummy #instagood #instafood #homecooking #bakersofinstagram #bakersgonnabake #homebaking #homemade #bakefromscratch #kingarthurflour #biscotti #chocolate #cranberry #sweettooth #sugarrush #foodoftheday #foodstagram #timetoeat #onthetable #holidaybaking #valentines #livethelittlethings #pursuepretty #fbcigers #igerstoronto #beautifulcuisines #damnthatsdelish #procrastination #thebakefeed

Another hurrah to Valentine’s Day — although no pink or red in these! . #tbt to these slightly spicy, ever-so-creamy and absolutely delicious White Chocolate Cinnamon Cookies. .
