This is an excellent snack, it can be un healthy, and quite hot if you let it be, and you can customize it the way you want, in this recipe I am making a simple base, yes there is a bit of addition to mine, but not a whole lot, we are trying to present this in a healthier way so we are avoiding doing the butter (Yes I am aware that it does add to the flavor, but its unhealthy and I’m not sure its nessasary with all that we have in it already.
Phase 1. Corn
Cook your corn, its normal to use white corn, however not everyone can get access to it, we couldn’t find it at all.
If your using canned corn drain first, other wise cook your corn, we used a bit of low sodium salt, so me peper and tajin.
Let your corn cool off before proceeding.
Phase 2. Putting it all together.
This was easy wasn’t it?
Put some corn in a cup, now presentation is not important, not everyone will care that much.
Put 2 spoon fulls of cream cheese.
Put 2 good squirts of mayo. (Please do not use Miracle Whip)
Put a bit of lime juice over it.
Put some of your favorite hot sauce, we used Franks Sweet Thai Chilli, my absolute favorite!
Then finally add a few sprinkles of Parmesan cheese and thats it your good to go!
This is a great little snack, very tasty and easy to make, a good pleaser, we hope you enjoy it!
Sandwiches are great, but ever wonder why yours looks bad and get stuck buying one just to get one that looks and tastes great?
I’ve been guilty of it, and I know so have you, but here is the thing, you have to consider the quality of meat your using, the type of bread or bun your using, and sauce and how its going together, it really does mater.
So lets take some time and think about it.
Phase 1. The meat!
The meat is a big part of a sandwich, and often if you go to the store and buy sandwich meat, its thin, not as flavorful and just not the best quality around, so what do we do?
In our video here we used chicken, but you can use pork or a beef product, season it to what you like, pepper, salt if you must (I like low sodium myself), maybe some honey, and bake it until its cooked , but you want it moist.
When done take it out of the oven, let it cool and then slice it thin, or however you like it, many of us don’t have a meat slicer and thats ok, (who has room for that anyways.), when done put it in the fridge for a bit.
Phase 2. Veggies.
Cut up your veggies nice and thin, but remember to use veggies that are dry, cukes and tomatoes are nice and all, but they can often be wet and can make your sandwich a soggy mess, so if your going to use tomatoes make sure you are not putting seeds in, this will ruin it, take those out. you want lettuce or spinach or something similar. make sure to have several varieties or your sandwich is going to be boring.
Phase 3. Sauce.
Directly on the inside of the bun on both sides, I like just plain mayo over that, it acts like a lubricant, and helps keep the bread from going soggy, you can do a mayo mix with hot sauce, or mustard or other things to give it a bit more flavor.
You can use other sauces like BBQ sauces, or a vinaigrette, or other tasty sauces you might want to include.
Phase 4. Cheese
You need cheese, plain and simple and to be honest you do not want cheesewiz, you want something of quality, you can get cheese slices, but honestly that brings you back to just making bland crap, so you can buy a block of cheese and cut that up, or go to the deli and buy a really nice block of cheese, trust me the flavor this brings is so electric and amazing, and trust me the cheese that you get from the deli is actual real cheese, and if you’ve never had it, trust me you need to.
Phase 5. Bread
You could use whtie bread, but when you buy a a good quality sandwich is it on white bread, most often it isn’t, why not choose a multi grain, or even better a nice bun, or roll, after all you want the best quality you can get, and this is going to do it.
Phase 6. Putting it all together!
Ok, so here is the fun part, not the most fun part, that is you eating it.
Take your roll and cut it down the middle, or if its bread just use both slices, but put your mayo, or mayo mix on the bottom of each side, this will act as a lubricant, which helps from keeping the juices getting your bread product
Then put some lettuce on the bottom and layering it nicely.
Now you want to take your meat and start layering that as well, giving it a nice presentation and having enough on it to make you happy.
Now start putting your veggies on it one by one, keeping in mind not to put too many veggies on it as it will make it messy and also hard to close, this isn’t a Subway sub, they do give you lots of veggies, but not a whole lot, and in the end it does look good, but the quality isn’t there.
Now your sauce you want to use, and remember do not over load this, or it is going to be messy, you want to have enough you taste and know its there and are happy, but not so much its going to over flow.
Then your cheese, and you want enough of this, especially if its from the deli.
Then lastly some more lettuce and close your sandwich.
The only thing left to do if you really want, you can put this in a pre heated oven to toast it.
But thats all, try this out some time, and if your someone who would enjoy to bring this to your work for lunch, buy the quantities for the week, and do the math, I bet you its cheaper than buying it every day, and honestly your co workers are going to be jelous!
This is a super easy and healthy recipe, made to help those who are tired of eating fatty unhealthy dressing that ruins the health level of your salad, after all, you have a nice healthy salad and then you ruin it by adding a salad that has a lot of oil and other fats that make it worse.
This is a super easy dressing, you simply take 1 or 1.5 cups of cauliflower boil it so its nice and soft, let them cool off a bit before continuing.

Do you own a breadmaker? If not why not, having one can save you a lot of money from having to buy bread, and honestly its very easy to use, just takes a bit of time, and honestly it tastes better, and has more flavor and honestly one of the best investments you’ll ever make.
This is super easy, you just have to put these ingredients in the order in which I tell you.
First off, you want 1 cup of warm water, make sure its warm not hot.
2 Table spoons of margarine, or butter.
3 Cups of Four.
3 Table spoons of sugar (not that important, I don’t always add even half of that.
4. 1/2 table spoon of salt, I usually just sprinkle a little in, I never add a lot, and even still mine is Lo-Salt, so its very low sodium as it is.
1 Tea spoon of cinnimon, you can actually add more of this if you want.
2 Tablespoons of yeast.
3/4th cup of Raisons.
Set them on what ever setting your breadmaker needs, you may have to look in your instructions or online mine is fruit and nut.
Just let it take its time, and should work fine, and in no time you’ll have some amazing Raisin bread, and if I’m being honest we both absolutely love it!
In Canada growing up, one of the most popular meals you would look forward to was Kraft Dinner, to our neighbors to the south they would just simply call it Mac and Cheese, making this homemade is so much better, and tastes sooooo amazing, its worth the time and effort we promise!
Phase 1 Noodles.
You can use what ever noodles you want, its your choice, make one you feel a sauce will stick to rather easily, make them as per its directions.
When the noodles are all cooked drain them, don’t rinse them, this will make the sauce incredibly hard to stick to, and you want it sticky so leave that noodle starch on.
Phase 2 Making a Rue.
So in another pot you want to add some margarine, or butter, its your choice butter is a better choice, but we understand butter can be super expensive, and also not always something you have available.
You then want to add some flour, maybe half a cup and mix it to add it into the butter and make sure you get this well mixed or your going to wind up with clumps of flour in your mouth, it doesn’t taste good, I can promise you!
Add in 2 cans of coconut milk and stir that around.
Now take 2 types of cheese, maybe half a block of 2 cheeses, choose the cheese you like and start to slowly add it in and stir it, (You need to constantly stir this or it will burn) add more cheese after what you added has melted in and keep doing this until all your cheese is incorporated.
Taste your sauce make sure it tastes the way you want it, you may have to add more cheese in.
When its finished pour it into the noodles, and stir it well, the only other thing you may want to add is fresh cracked pepper, but honestly it should be good enough!
We hope you like this, you can ask around, many people will say Kraft Dinner is Crap Dinner, but they will all love Homemade Mac and Cheese! We hope you do too.
This is an easy, fast and healthy jam to spread on your toast in the morning, super fun to make and worth every moment it takes to make.
This does not require any pectin as rhubarb makes it own natural pectin, you also don’t need to add water as there will be enough natural juices in it already.
And you can use frozen fruit, it will work perfectly fine!
All you need is a few spoonful’s of brown sugar.
Frozen Blueberries, frozen rhubarb, some lemon juice and cinimon!
Add that all into a tall pot and boil for 30 minutes, just leave it simmer, you can mix it a bit if you want, but thats it, super simple and easy right?
Once its done boiling take it off the heat and give it about 30 minutes or so to cool down before you put it in containers, this will help thicken it up alot.
What do you think, I think it tastes amazing, and has a great taste to it and absolutely one of my favorite jams!
BBQ Chicken Pizza just happens to be one of my wife’s favorite pizzas, she really enjoys it,. a lot, so this is one I end up making a lot for her.
Pizza is fun to make, you can buy your crust, you can make it, and I would encourage you to get a bread maker, with the price of bread these days making your own would be so much more simple and cheaper, and making pizza dough is so much easier that way.
In this recipe I’m going to let you choose how you want your own dough, I did not include a dough making recipe as I use a bread maker, and I’m aware that not everyone does.
So lets take some chicken breast chunk it up and start cooking with it, use any spice you want, its more your taste, you can make it hot, or not the choice is yours, Make sure your using some BBQ sauce as you cook it. I would say no salt, and use pepper and garlic to it.
Make sure your chickens is fully cooked.
At this time I would go ahead and pre heat your oven to 500 degrees.
Now on your pizza dough, add a layer of BBQ Sauce, now this sauce should be something you really enjoy a good flavored BBQ Sauce will go a long way instead of just a cheap flavorless one, we are not going to be using a tomato based sauce for this just a BBQ Sauce so lets make it good.
Put your chicken over it so there is a good coverage of it.
Add some chopped up onion green pepper and mushrooms over it.
And finish off with some nice shredded cheese (Please shred this your self, pre bought is not healthy and also more expensive so its not worth the money.
When the oven is done pre heating, bake the pizza for 20 minutes, or when nice and golden (Keep an eye on it, every oven is different.)
Thats it, let the pizza cool a bit before digging in, give it at least 5 to 10 minutes, then cut it up and enjoy.
We hope you enjoy this, and try it sometime, Aimee loves sharing this one.
BTW just a side note, yes Pineapple does belong on pizza, js.
Ok, so first off yes, I get it, liver and onions can be terrible, however it is an old time favorite, and on top of that, there are people out there with iron issues, and some people who go to the hospital a lot because of it, so liver and onions are an important part of their diet to help them stay out of the hospital, and that is serious, our very own Chef Alex has a brother who is one of those. The trick is to make live and onions taste acceptable, so it can be eaten with out issue, and I think I have solved the issue, so lets get to it.
Phase 1 Dealing with the Liver!
Slice up your liver into small pieces and put into a bowl and cover with white vinegar for 30 minutes. This is a very important step as the vinegar will dull a lot of the horrid taste out of it, the real issue with liver is that it is so rich in iron it becomes very hard to eat, the vinegar will help dull that down.
Phase 2 Setting Up The Dredge Station.
Take a bowl and add lots of flour into it and set it aside.
Phase 3 Get Saucy!
In another bowl add the following, some Ginger and Garlic Paste, Sweet Thai Chili Sauce, Apple Cyder Vinegar and mix it up really good.
Phase 4 Onions.
Cut up some onions small, but chunky.
Phase 5 Cook Them Up!
This is important, drain and rinse the liver at least 3 times, its important to get this nice and cleaned up, now put the liver into the sauce and mix it all up.
Now we start to cook, lets start cooking the onions till they are getting nice and soft.
Start to dredge the liver into the flour and then into the frying pan and cook it all up until its done!
We hope you tried this, and we hope you liked it, I turned my wife who absolutely hates liver into a believer.
