Spaghetti With Sun Gold Tomatoes And Basil
This pasta is absolutely to die for! We grow extra Sun Gold cherry tomatoes just so we can make it a few times during the summer. Sometimes it only takes a handful of wonderful ingredients to make something so yummy! I am counting the days until our Sun Gold’s are ripe; they are so sweet […]
Brazilian Empadas/Empanadas
The famous Brazilian meat pies! We really enjoy them in the summer either for lunch or dinner with a salad! They are perfect to take along on a picnic or to make appetizer size and take to a party. Bonus…they can be eaten hot or at room temperature! If you wish, you can add a few […]
Pre-Cooking Spareribs
I have seen many recipes that ask for the ribs to be pre-cooked before finishing on the barbecue. The recipe asks that the ribs be separated and then boiled for some time. Oops…I think this method not only toughens the meat but a lot of flavour goes into that water. I use another method that […]
Okra and Corn Chowder
This soup is a perfect reason to use those late summer veggies. I like okra a lot and I think it is underrated…although some won’t agree. You can substitute green beans if you wish. What can I say about fresh yellow corn on the cob, divine! I’ve never been a fan of chowders with […]

Spaghetti With Pesto Trapanese
There is nothing like making this famous Sicilian pesto with ripe cherry tomatoes and fresh basil from your own garden! Failing that your local farmer’s market is a great choice. The “sauce” is so easy to put together and the pasta is the only thing that requires cooking. Thanks goes to “Lidia’s Italy” for this! On […]
Indian Tomato Cucumber Salad
This salad is so good. It’s refreshing and makes a great accompaniment to my barbecued Tandoori chicken. Grill up some naan and there you have it, a great summer meal full of south Indian flavours and aromas! But you don’t have to wait for summer to enjoy! Although summer tomatoes, as we know are the bomb! […]
“Tandoori” Chicken
I have made this recipe many, may times since I came across it many years ago. It was always a big hit when I made it for events when I was a corporate caterer. And it’s so easy too! We like to cook the chicken on the barbecue but it works just fine in a […]
Tomato And Zucchini Pie
What can I say? Tomatoes, zucchini, basil, garlic; it doesn’t get any better at the height of summer! Someone once said that “what grows together, goes together.” I definitely agree. This pie can be served hot or warm, makes a great summer meal accompanied by a salad. Pass the wine please! And…it’s vegetarian! Makes 6 […]
