Looking for me? You may have noticed that I haven’t been active on the blog here for a while. That is because I launched My Menu Pal last year with my good friend and colleague, Lesley Baradel. My Menu Pal is the culmination of our passion for menu planning and recipe development, just taken to […]
Recipe Redux – Beef and Bean Taco Meat
March 21, 2015 by 1 Comment
This month’s Recipe Redux is Two For One. The idea being you cook once and eat twice. I do this all the time – finding ways to repurpose leftovers into another meal. My children are rather picky about eating leftovers so if I make extra of something, I have to find multiple ways of using […]

This month’s Recipe Redux is our favorite chocolate pairings, since it is February after all. Of course I love chocolate and will eat it will just about anything.

I admit it, I have a sweet tooth. And almost as much as I love chocolate, I love caramel! Put the two together, and oh my….but wait, I’m jumping ahead of myself to another post later today. I think I’ve made my own caramel sauce maybe once. On a stovetop and it took a lot […]

This month’s Recipe Redux is about reflection, since it is that time of year, and the fact that we’ve been doing the Recipe Redux for 42 months now! It is hard to believe we’ve been doing it for that long! And it has grown tremendously since then with such a large group that we are now posting […]
Recipe Redux – Potato Rolls
November 21, 2014 by 12 Comments
This month’s Recipe Redux theme, in honor of Thanksgiving, is a food memory for which we are thankful and then a healthy “redo” of that recipe. This was pretty easy for me to come up with an idea as one memory and food jumps out at me this time of year. My family has always made potato rolls […]

And we are already half-way through November! I’ve been remiss again on posting my menu plans.
