Cranberry Spiced Snack Mix
Posted by Donna-Marie Pye on
You can't go to a holiday party without a bowl of this fun party snack mix appearing. The original recipe came out in 1952 when it appeared on the back of the Chex cereal box. It's been tweaked and revised many times over the years and this version is no different. Feel free to put your own spin on it by skipping the nuts or making it vegan or gluten-free. It rarely lasts long once the bowl is put out!

Brussels Sprouts with Browned Butter and Black Garlic
Posted by Donna-Marie Pye on
Black garlic has a highly concentrated taste - licorice meets balsamic meets the absolute essence of garlic. It's a quick way tin inject a huge amount of flavour into a dish. Get everything chopped and ready for this dish before you start, but don't cook it until just before starting - you want the sprouts to be eaten fresh from the pan.

Buckwheat Galettes with Egg, Ham, and Cheese
Posted by Donna-Marie Pye on
A galette is a buckwheat crepe filled with savoury breakfast staples, such as egg, ham, and cheese. It hails from Brittany and is enjoyed at any time of day. To prepare these galettes for a group that wants to eat together, have all your ingredients ready to go so you can assemble each one in the pan as the crepe finishes cooking. Note that buckwheat flour—despite the fact it has “wheat” in its name—is entirely gluten-free. It is ground from a seed, not a grain.

Creepy Shortbread Witch Finger Cookies
Posted by Donna-Marie Pye on
Halloween is not looking like it will be a door-to-door activity this year. So here's a fun cookie to make with the kids. Donna-Marie used to make these with her kids when they were younger, including some fun "mummy" hot dogs, which they still talk about and love, even in their twenties!
Cheesy Pesto Stuffed Squash
Posted by Donna-Marie Pye on
One of my favourite autumn squashes to roast is Delicata squash. If you have never tried Delicata, it truly is a "squash-of-joy"! Its edible skin and creamy interior make it a no-fuss vegetable to prepare. Stuffing it with this cheesy, pesto combination makes you think of lasagna, so eat up, squash and all!
