Grandma's Sweet & Sour Stir-Fry

Full of delicious veggies marinated in a sweet sauce, with a splash of pineapple throughout, this Sweet & Sour Stir-Fry is a wonderful main course for dinner, that you'll love :)


This was my grandma's recipe that we've used for years now. It's definitely a favorite! You can pretty much put any vegetables in it you please, it's a very easy recipe to switch up.

Our family usually likes to put in bell peppers (my personal favorite is red), carrots, broccoli, onion, and our latest addition is mushrooms. As well, we add some chopped up chicken breast and pineapple.

And of course we can't forget the sauce! I love this sauce. As you can guess from the name, it's sweet and sour. So we use the drained pineapple juice from the can we used in the veggie mixture, and we put it together with some brown sugar, dried mustard, cornstarch, vinegar, water, and ketchup.

This goes over-top delicious brown rice!

Greek Salad

Rich. Flavorful. Incredible.


The past few months I've gotten away from making salads for our evening meals. But I'm determined to get back into it. So the other day we went out and got the ingredients for this flavour packed greek salad. Making this again reminded me of how much I love this salad. I used to make it all. the. time. I love it, and I think you will too as long as you like feta cheese and olives!

Classic Shepherd's Pie

Classic. Savory. Delicious.


This is our family's 'go to' recipe for whenever friends or family are coming over and we need something easy for dinner that everyone will love. The garlic powder adds a nice seasoned taste to the delicious ground beef layer and the whipped potato just tops this whole dinner off. 

Perfect For Game Day: Mild Salsa

Not to sweet, or too sour - or more like not too spicy, not too bland! It's the perfect combination of spice with a bit of kick to it. :)

This is the perfect recipe to share with friends and family around the living room while you're watching the Grey Cup this weekend, if you're into football and are Canadian! Get some tortilla or corn chips and dig in while watching the game. :)
