Recipes
Salmon
Super Grilled Salmon
This is a grilled salmon made with full bodied wine (Shiraz is best). It needs to marinate overnight for best flavor.
Breakfast
Carrot Cake Pancakes
Carrot cake pancakes for breakfast? Why not! The spices in these pancakes take you right to the flavors of a carrot cake. They're topped with a sweet cream cheese drizzle, chopped nuts, raisins, and flaked coconut for a decadent treat.
Desserts
Easy Butterfinger Cake
Angel food cake, Butterfinger® candy bars and Cool Whip® are the well known favorites in this delightful (and easy) no-bake dessert. Looks great in a trifle bowl. I don't even like Butterfinger® bars and I thoroughly enjoy this stuff!! You can do this in a 9x13-inch pan as well, but the trifle looks so nice!
Desserts
Canada Day Three Berry Trifle
Trifle is my favourite dessert and I have been making it for decades, probably not the same way twice! A good dessert to make when you are doing other things and can walk away and come back to it as you have time. Reserve a few pieces of each fruit for garnish.
Desserts
Creamsicle Ice Cream Cake
Two layers of orange-flavored cake sandwich a layer of vanilla ice cream in this simple recipe, then it's finished off with some whipped topping for a bit of extra flair. And it tastes like the real deal.
Desserts
Chocolate Eclair Cake
This chocolate éclair cake is the best! My favorite person in the world, my second mom Patty, gave me this easy and delicious recipe.
Desserts
Marshmallow Cereal Treats
Three favorite cereals go into these marshmallow treats. I use the basic Rice Krispies treat recipe and add Cap'n Crunch and Froot Loops. They are pretty and so tasty; they are always the first to go at our school bake sale!
Desserts
Simple Custard
This custard recipe is a combination of a few different recipes I've tried. It's not too rich or too sweet as many egg custards can be. Can be served warm immediately or cold.
Salmon
Salmon with Brown Sugar Glaze
This brown sugar salmon recipe with Dijon is my favorite. I make this quick and easy dish way too often. Serve with rice and broccoli.
Slow Cooker
Slow Cooker Beef Stew
Beef Stew is one of the most iconic comfort foods and this version features tender beef, onions, potatoes, fire roasted tomatoes in a rich herb filled stew. This recipe can be made in the slow cooker or Dutch oven.

Nanas Peach Parfait Pie
This peach parfait pie has always been a family favorite and is great on a warm summer day!
Desserts
Grandma Emmas Fudgy Chocolate Pie
My grandmother's chocolate cream pie was a staple of my childhood. Homemade custard filling with a dense texture. Very rich, not too sweet, and oh-so-satisfying. For convenience, I make this with a store-bought graham cracker crust and top with whipped cream, but she used to make hers with a prebaked pastry crust topped with meringue. Either way, it's delicious. Hope you enjoy!
Desserts
Chess Pie
This chess pie is a very old Southern recipe. It's a very sweet, rich dessert which cannot be described as anything but marvelous. This is not my personal recipe but was passed to me by my grandmother and from her grandmother and so on and so forth. You will think you have died and gone to heaven when you taste this, especially when served with whipped cream.
Slow Cooker
Slow Cooker Cashew Chicken
Slow Cooker Cashew Chicken is a favorite chicken crock pot recipe using lightly breaded chicken with a flavorful cashew sauce, celery, bean sprouts, onion and bell pepper!
Salmon
The Best Smoked Salmon Dip
This smoked salmon dip is so soft and creamy that it also works as a spread. It's mixed with cream cheese, fresh herbs, and seasonings for the perfect way to stretch pricey smoked salmon!
Salmon
Dijon Garlic Salmon
Salmon is delightful with Dijon mustard, garlic, onion, and a bit of tarragon. I created this dish for the low-carb diet I was on. Enjoy!!
Desserts
Cherry Cheesecake Dump Cake
This cherry cheesecake dump cake could not be easier. Cherry pie filling and vanilla cake mix are pantry staples you can keep on hand. Add cream cheese, butter, and egg and vanilla, and you're nearly there!
