Perogy



This is an excellent recipe. I found it in the Edmonton Journal and it has been my favourite ever since. A single recipe makes about 55 perogies. I always double the recipe. Just remember if you double the recipe you need to divide the dough into four sections. I like to pan fry my perogies after boiling them because they get such a nice crispy exterior. I top with sauteed onions and a dollop of sour cream. Simple but heavenly!

Maraschino Brownie Cookies

If you are a fan of brownies and cherries you’ve got to try these cookies. Fudgy, brownie-like cookies topped with a sweet cherry with a drizzle of cherry infused chocolate frosting - YUM!.

Chicken Burritos


I have been making these easy delicious chicken burritos for years and wanting to post the recipe but every time I make them I cannot for the life of me take a good photo. The photos never do the burrito justice. I take from every angle and still I fall short. I decided these are too good to not post because of a photo.I found this recipe in one of my Best of Bridge recipe books.
My son Leelyn could live on these and his face always lights up when he spots the casserole pan full of burritos. In fact, my whole family likes these too. They are filled with a cheesy, creamy chicken mixture and then rolled up into a nice neat package. We like to eat them with all the fixings. Hope you like them too!

Pumpkin Pecan Baked Brie


I was looking for a Thanksgiving appetizer recipe when I came across a recipe for baked brie using pumpkin butter. I have seen many recipes for apple butter but never have I heard of pumpkin butter. Here in Edmonton you can purchase it at the William Sonoma store in West Edmonton Mall but it is really easy to make and probably much cheaper too. The pumpkin butter is sweetened with maple syrup and brown sugar and pumpkin spice is added for the perfect touch. When you put the brie, nuts and pumpkin butter together with the pastry it is simply heaven on a cracker.

Spaghetti and Meatball Casserole



Here is another version of spaghetti casserole but with meatballs. These meatballs really steal the show as they are packed with flavour. We like our food hot so I used hot Italian sausage meat but you can use mild and it will be flavourful as well. The fresh mozzarella melts so nicely and adds so much to the casserole. Enjoy!
