This recipe came from a book called French Women Don’t Get Fat. I’m not sure if that’s true or not but the Baguette recipe was worth the price of the book. I make French Baguettes often and this recipe is a winner.
Chicago Mix Popcorn
This unusual mixture of caramel corn and cheese popcorn is all the rage. My friend Marilyn told me she had some at Garret Popcorn in Chicago and they served it warm. I was surprised to learn that the popular mix actually originated in Minnesota and there have been lawsuits over the use of the title Chicago Mix Popcorn. I doubt I’ll get sued.
Chicken and White Bean Enchiladas
Traditional Chicken Enchiladas smothered in a creamy sauce and topped with cheese, then baked until bubbling and browning. A few added ingredients increase the nutritional value without compromising on flavour.
Roasted Peameal Bacon
Peameal Bacon is a popular breakfast meat in Canada. If you’re in the US, you might know it as Canadian Bacon. But did you know you can roast a whole unsliced Peameal? This recipe with a sweet and zesty glaze results in a crusty exterior and juicy interior.
Moussaka
If you’ve never had Moussaka it’s sort of like a Greek version of lasagna. I’ve always wanted to make it but I wasn’t sure about the combination of spices in the meat. Cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves sound like pumpkin pie to me. But, curiosity got the best of me so I consulted numerous versions on the internet and came up with this recipe that passed not one but TWO taste test dinners!
