Canada Day Lemonade & Ice Box Cookies
Posted by Donna-Marie Pye on
It's cottage time here in Ontario and we've got two recipes to share this weekend. Ice box cookies are a favourite standby in the summertime. Store this slice-and-bake roll of cookie dough in your fridge or freezer - to make freshly baked cookies that are ready in 10 minutes. And keeping a jar of this lemon syrup in the fridge makes it easy to stir up a glassful or pitcher of fresh lemonade for company!
Watermelon & Feta Salad with Fresh Mint
Posted by Donna-Marie Pye on
If you’ve never had watermelon and feta cheese together, you’re in for a treat! The saltiness of the feta pairs beautifully with the sweet, fruity flavours of the watermelon. The mint gives the salad a bright refreshing flavour, and the balsamic drizzle gives a great tart note. If you’re looking to pair this dish with wine, a dry sparkling rosé would marry well with the sweet and salty flavours in this delightful summer salad.

Grilled Salmon with Lemon Citronette
Posted by Donna-Marie Pye on
Grilled salmon with lemon has such a bright, fresh flavour and its absolutely perfect for summer! Because hello grilling season. We are calling this a "citronette" because it's a vinaigrette made with freshly squeezed lemon juice instead of vinegar. It’s easy to make, and only requires a quick grill time. With flavour like this it will likely become a go-to grilled salmon recipe!

Grilled Asparagus with Romesco Sauce
Posted by Donna-Marie Pye on
Asparagus heralds the arrival of spring, especially when slathered in this vibrant, make-ahead romesco sauce of tomato sauce, jarred bell peppers and almonds, spiked with chilies and spices. No mystery why Catalonians put it on everything from meat to fish to veggies! If you have any leftover, take some baguette for a dip. Consider it the home advantage!
Rhubarb-Oatmeal Streusel Muffins
Posted by Donna-Marie Pye on
These muffins have been a "Donna-Marie favourite" for years. The original recipe hails from the Canadian Living Country Cooking cookbook from 1991. No matter in what form this tasty quick bread is baked, it's the highlight of any breakfast or coffee break and best served warm.
