Brioche Slider Buns For the last few months I've been looking for slider buns in my grocery store but they're nowhere to be found! Then, I don't know if you've noticed those awesome food videos being posted with you guessed it, slider buns! I said enough! I took the bull by the horns and I made my own slider buns. Brioche slider buns. ...
Burgers
Ultimate Burger
Ultimate Burger This recipe is a "put-it-altogether" recipe inspired by one of my favourite fast food chain burgers. Confession? I had this for dinner tonight but it's so low in fat and calories that no confession is necessary!!! Serves 4-5 1 Batch of my Classic Diner Burgers Topped with my Spicy Burger Sauce (one tbsp per ...
“Take-Out Burger”
"Take-Out Burger" I'm calling this 'Take-Out Burger" because that's exactly what it tastes like; a decadent, naughty, fatty, bad-for-you-burger but really it's not bad for you at all. I credit this to two things: My Yummy Boom Boom Sauce and Sautéed Mushrooms; what an insane combination. This is a "putting it all together" recipe and I hope it ...
Jalapeño Burger
Jalapeño Burger Yes, I’m still on my Jalapeno pepper kick but in fact, this is the recipe I had in mind when I wanted to buy ONE jalapeño pepper but left the store with a PACK! Yes, a PACK of jalapeno peppers… I’ve been putting them in everything lately! Anyway, this burger recipe is easy, healthy, tangy and slightly spicy; perfect for your next ...
Pickle – Pepper Relish
Pickle – Pepper Relish It's barbecue season, (I think) I still have no idea how to dress my kids for the day; it may be hot or it may snow! Anyway, I had a craving for hamburgers and hotdogs and thought it'd be fun to make a homemade relish and this is what I came up with :) 4 Mini cucumbers, diced 1 Small onion, diced ½ (Sweet) red ...
Chili – Cheese Sliders
Chili - Cheese Sliders This is more of a resource or recommendation for using up your leftovers in a fun and creative way. I say this in all seriousness… because this is what we had for dinner the other night! Serves 4 4 Dinner rolls (or slider buns) 1-2 Cups of leftover Chili, warmed (I just used the microwave) ¼ Cup extra old cheddar ...
Summer Sliders
Summer Sliders ‘I think I can, I think I can’; this is what I say to myself everyday the weather is cold. I think I can, I think I can make it to the summer. I have a confession to make; I hate the cold weather so to get through it I plan a summer menu in the middle of a snow storm and it makes me feel better. Please, don’t get me started on tax ...
Chicken and Waffle Sandwich
Chicken and Waffle Sandwich This is another ‘putting it altogether’ recipe; I love making a sandwich using homemade waffles because it’s something a little different and absolutely delish (did I mention the little squares hold more yummy sauce?). Serves 4 2 Anna’s Waffles with Chives (1/2 waffle per sandwich) 1 Medium vine ripened tomato, ...
California Fusion Sandwich
California Fusion Sandwich This is a ‘putting it altogether’ recipe, this is important because it’s what cooking is, taking parts and pieces of your favourite recipes and making a meal and how Mike and I actually eat and how we stay healthy! Serves 4 4 Whole Wheat Brioche Hamburger Buns (or any whole wheat bun) 1 Medium vine ripened ...
Herbed Mayonnaise
Herbed Mayonnaise I’m so not a gardener but I’d love to be! Every Mother’s Day (well, 3 so far) Mike buys me a ton of fresh herbs from the Garden Centre and then he plants the herbs for me... and he keeps them alive all summer long! So thanks to Mike, I have a ton of fresh herbs that inspired this Recipe Redux theme of “Fresh From the Garden”. ...
Curry Mayonnaise with Lime
Curry Mayonnaise with Lime With summer here, you can’t have enough yummy, slightly guilt free burger sauces, can you? Serves 4 1/4 Cup light mayonnaise Zest of a lime Juice of a lime 1/2 tsp curry powder Salt (a pinch) Pepper (a little less then a pinch) Mix all ingredients together and then refrigerate until you need ...
Grilled Mexican Chicken Sandwich
Grilled Mexican Chicken Sandwich This is more of a ‘putting it all together’ dish versus a recipe because I’m using several recipes to put together this incredibly delicious chicken sandwich (some may even call it a chicken burger). This would also go well with my yummy Whole Wheat Brioche Burger Buns but alas, this time I went with ...
