Spicy Pulled Pork Sandwiches
Spicy Pulled Pork Sandwiches I love my (what I call my) Putting it All Together Recipes! I love the idea of making everything from scratch and showing you how to make every step of a recipe your own (and healthy!).

Spicy Coleslaw
Spicy Coleslaw Now this recipe is bad-a💤. This is spicy, crunchy, a little sweet and so amazingly tasty. Not bad for low fat!!!! This is the recipe I came up with to compliment the pulled pork but this is absolutely incredible as a stand-alone side 👍🏻 Serves 8 ¼ Cup light mayonnaise ¼ Cup fat free sour cream (or Greek yogurt) 1 tbsp ...
Slow Cooker Pulled Pork
Slow Cooker Pulled Pork I'm new to this whole pork thing but it feels like there's a whole culinary world that's opened up to me. Naturally pulled pork came to mind instantly when I was trying to decide what dish to the next. At first I was intimidated but as I researched it, I realized it's so easy!

Instant Pot Hot Beef Sandwich
Instant Pot Hot Beef Sandwich My sister gave me an Instant Pot for Christmas 🎄 I was pumped... and scared. Pressure cookers explode, right???

A ...
Steak Fajita Quesadillas
Steak Fajita Quesadillas Maybe this sounds like an odd recipe but when you taste it, it's identical to fajita you get at a Mexican-style restaurant.

Spicy Cajun Popcorn Chicken with a Smokey Honey Mustard Sauce
Spicy Cajun Popcorn Chicken with a Smokey Honey Mustard Sauce So I started to think about popcorn beyond just a seasoned snack. Then I thought about popcorn chicken and a light went off… Popcorn-crusted chicken. For this recipe, I used SkinnyPop popcorn, a healthier popcorn option. Ooooh then I wanted it spicy (enter Cajun seasoning) and ...
Pickled Onion
Pickled Onion This is a very important condiment for a soon-to-be published Burger recipe (oh how i do love a good burger!) . Stay tuned because it's a keeper.

Roasted Potato and Pepper Hash
Roasted Potato and Pepper Hash This recipe came together in minutes and is such a keeper. This is like a fancy version of everyone's favourite diner potato hash but the labour is minimal and by roasting it, the hash develops incredible flavour and textures as the veggies caramelize. Serve 6-8 4 Medium russet potatoes (skin on), cleaned and ...
Sweet Potato Wedges
Sweet Potato Wedges Over the course of my time blogging I have made a few - nay, quite a few confessions. Well, here's another one: I don't like sweet potatoes (yams) and this time I can't really blame my mother (I can already hear her screaming 'Ya-hoo'). Anyway Mike loves sweet potatoes so in a compromise since he eats tomatoes (he despises ...
