Today I present to you the Anti-Hipster No-Bake Cheesecake. Why Anti-Hipster you ask? Well, let me tell you! There is a current trend amongst hipsters to use Mason Jars for salads, and soups, and other miscellaneous things. I don’t have anything against this, as repurposing old items for new uses is great! What I do…

Thunder Chili Wonton
Sun nin fai lok! Happy lunar new year to you all! In celebration of this date, we are back to Chinese food (yay!) We were tasked to bring an appetizer to our family gathering this year, and what better way to start your meal than with chili wontons? My family name character translated from Chinese…
Marpole Honey Sriracha Chicken
I’m going to be trying out a new naming scheme for everything we cook. Instead of the usual [Seasoning][Protein] naming convention, from now on, it’s going to be called something that has meaning to me. Whether it’s a person, place, or thing, will be left up to how I feel that particular day. Today’s meal…
Banana Puff
Super simple dessert idea today. This is another creation made due to the fact we had a leftover sheet of puff pastry in the fridge, and didn’t know what to do with it. Did we want to make another Chicken Pot Pie? Maybe some more Crab Cake Tarts? Nah, we wanted dessert! On the fly,…
Chicken Biryani
In my previous post about Trini Roti and Channa Masala, I noted that I had made it for my work potluck. At the same event, my colleague from India made a Chicken Biryani dish that we all absolutely loved! Asking him for pointers, I decided to try and make it myself. All in all, it…
Trini Roti & Chana Masala [Vegetarian/Vegan]
One of the first posts on this blog when I was just filling it up with content was making Trini Roti. This is a more indepth version, along with a review of a store bought Masala mix! Recently at work, I had setup a potluck with my team members for American Thanksgiving lunch. Of course,…
Leftover Chicken Mushroom Bacon Pot Pie [Vegetarian option]
We always seem to have a lot of random food in our house. Whether it be frozen meat that we’ve set into individual portions bought from a rather large warehouse style retailer, or random veggies in the fridge that are starting to show their age, there’s always something that isn’t quite enough for a full…
BBQ Shortrib [Korean Tong Kalbi Style]
Our absolute favourite meat over the past couple of years has been Korean style barbeque short ribs. The only problem is that whenever we order it at a restaurant, it’s so expensive! We decided to save money, we needed to learn how to do it ourselves. This post doesn’t have us making our own marinade,…
Drunken Maple Turkey
For years now, I’ve been following a recipe I found online to make a maple-glaze for when I roast a turkey, however I’ve been tweaking it every year to suit my taste. What I’ve come up with is a sweet and robust flavour for the turkey and gravy. Once you try it, you won’t be…
Crab Cake Tarts
Everyone has a go to dish when it comes to potlucks. For some people, it’s cookies, for others, it’s chips and pop. For Jax, her go to is an appetizer crab cake tart dish! Ingredients needed: 1/2 package of king crab flavoured Pollock (aka Imitation Crab) 1 can of crabmeat 3 cloves garlic 1/2 white onion…
Garlic Parmesan Wings
One of the things my friends and I always used to do back in our younger days was go out for ‘Wings Wednesday’ at pubs. We also used to eat at various establishments that specialized in wings, such as Wingnuts (my all time favourite place for wings, RIP), and Wings. Growing older, I realized I…
Char Siu Udon [Vegetarian/Vegan Option]
We always have a lot of leftovers in this house. We purposely buy or make enough food to last for the next few days for lunches, and general laziness. One such item that we always have too much of is BBQ pork. Both when we buy it from a Chinese BBQ shop, or when we…
