Split-Pea Soup with Ham
A staple in many Canadian homes, this delicious soup is easy to make, fills cold, empty bellies fast, and supplies nourishing goodness.
Rhubarb Fool
In this delightfully moist cake rhubarb is matched with cinnamon and brown sugar.
Candied Nuts
Experiment with seasonings in the syrup to change the flavour. Be creative until you find the combination your family likes best.
Brownies
This one pot brownie recipe from Rose Levy Beranbaum doesn’t get any easier. The brownies are deeply flavoured with dark cocoa.
Fresh Strawberry Cream Cheese Pie
This is without a doubt my favourite summer pie. It brings back memories of me and mom picking strawberries together in the cool morning, then rushing home to put this pie together in time for supper.
Strawberry Feta Salad
Fruit in salads, like this delicious one, is appealing to young palates.
Festive Yule Log
If you haven’t made a Yule Log before, this is the version to try. It’s made with a chocolate sponge cake, mocha whipped cream filling and chocolate cream cheese icing and is beautifully delicious.
The History of the Yule Log
The Yule Log as we know it today is a delicious holiday dessert, but its symbolism and origins go way back.
