Asian Tomato and Cucumber Salad 

February 28, 2022 By Lisa

Asian Tomato and Cucumber Salad  LisaGCooks.com

Asian Tomato and Cucumber Salad  I started writing recipes in 2010, I wanted to document what I ate because I wanted to inspire others to eat healthy.  Healthy eating isn’t about depriving yourself of what you enjoy eating.  Its about smarter choices and more often than not, its about portion control.  I became a mother two years later and my ...

Tangy Broccoli and Apple Salad I LisaGCooks.com

Tangy Broccoli and Apple Salad With BBQ season fast approaching we all need lightened up salads in our repertoires.   I was inspired once again during my Saturday morning routine where my daughter woke up the rooster who woke up this mom and I laid in bed with Paw Patrol, a toddler snuggled up with me and Facebook (admittedly I only had one eye ...

French Farmhouse Potatoes with Broccoli

November 9, 2021 By Lisa

French Farmhouse Potatoes with Broccoli I LisaGCooks.com

French Farmhouse Potatoes with Broccoli   This is a recipe I keep coming back to.  This takes minutes to prepare and very little effort on my part to produce, arguably, the most flavourful potatoes you'll ever taste.  The stock and butter cook down and leave a buttery coating on all the veggies. You can use this method on other veggies too, ...

Spicy Pickles

September 28, 2021 By Lisa

Spicy Pickles I LisaGCooks.com

Spicy Pickles My eldest niece decided she wanted to help her mother (my sister) with planting their Vegetable garden in the spring.  In her own sassy way she chose jalapeños but to my sister's chagrin, my sister doesn't eat spicy peppers. Autie to the rescue! (Can you picture the cape?) As I stated before, "there are few things in life as ...

Baked Cheesy Cauliflower with Bacon

September 13, 2021 By Lisa

Baked Cheesy Cauliflower with Bacon

Baked Cheesy Cauliflower with Bacon Some things are a classic for a reason; because they’re awesome!  This dish is soul-soothing, stick to your ribs.  Despite this, it’s pretty low cal considering it’s a butter-based cheese sauce.  Serve this in place of your starch and you won’t even notice the starch is missing. Add the butter and ...

Marinated Cauliflower Salad

August 30, 2021 By Lisa

Marinated Cauliflower Salad I LisaGCooks.com

Marinated Cauliflower Salad This is the year!!! I say this every year. Of course, foolishly I’m referring to liking cauliflower. I think to myself maybe my mother’s right, maybe if I eat something enough, I’ll like it 🤷‍♀️ But no. No. I do not like cauliflower. This recipe though came close. If you like cauliflower I think you’ll appreciate ...

Sweet and Spicy Sweet Potato Bites

August 16, 2021 By Lisa

Sweet and Spicy Sweet Potato Bites

Sweet and Spicy Sweet Potato Bites I'm pretty sure it's a perfectly standard thing in everyone's house and relationship.  One person really likes a certain cuisine or ingredient while their spouse or partner as an equal dislike for said food. Mike hates fish.  He actually despises it.  He's cool with shellfish but you'll never see him touch ...
