No-Knead Pizza Dough Recipe
If you’ve tasted the breads at Sullivan Street Bakery, I think you’d agree: Jim Lahey is a genius. And the best part is that he isn’t one of those crazy secret-keeping geniuses. In fact, I’d say he’s pretty much...
Bacon Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Recipe
I heart oatmeal raisin cookies. They’re sweet, chewy and oat-y enough to feel a bit healthy. But, my love for oatmeal raisin cookies isn’t steadfast; I’m a picky oatmeal raisin cookie lover. I strongly dislike crunchy oatmeal...
Skillet Fried Chicken Recipe
We moved to Vancouver from Edmonton when I was eight years old. My mom was tired of the endless snowy winters and mosquito-filled summers. I didn’t want to move—my whole life was in Edmonton. My best friend and I...

This sweet and spicy pineapple guacamole recipe is the simplest and best twist on guacamole ever. Everything you need, nothing you...
Churros Recipe
I don’t think I’ve every met anyone who doesn’t like churros. Deep fried dough rolled in cinnamon-sugar? What’s not to love?! Churros are best straight out of the oil when they’re warm and somehow manage to be crispy...
Chouquette Recipe
Biting into a chouquette is a little like biting into a soft, rich, eggy, cloud topped with crunchy sugar. My first taste of these slightly-sweet treats was in Nice, France. Tummy rumbling, Mike and I headed into a bakery....
Bacon Jam Recipe
I love bacon. It was one of the few things I would eat as a picky child, much to the dismay of my mom. (Other choice items included plain white rice and Coco Pebbles). If they had bacon jam...
