Crispy Baked Chicken Taquitos

January 18, 2021 Chicken & Turkey

I unabashedly love Mexican chain restaurants. Give me a a bottomless basket of tortilla chips and salsa, and then a flaming cast iron skillet of chicken fajitas and I am the happiest camper. Lone Star has been my go to for so many years; at my first job after university it’s where I bonded with […]

Sesame Chicken with Chili Lime Cashews

January 13, 2021 Chicken & Turkey

  I haven’t made anything new from the Half Baked Harvest blog in a hot minute, and as soon as I started preparing this recipe I remembered why. So many components! So many ingredients! So many dishes! I kind of hoped this wouldn’t be good after all this, but damn, it really was. And it […]

Sweet Potato & Black Bean Burrito Bowls

July 14, 2020 Dinner

At the beginning of lockdown, so many blogs and food sites talked a lot about pantry meals. These posts presume that a) you even have a pantry and b) it’s well stocked with items just waiting to be used. Well, I definitely don’t have a pantry (just a small cupboard) and I’ve never been the […]

Cacio e Pepe

Cacio e Pepe

Even though I’m trying to stay positive during quarantine, I was still pretty grumpy last Friday because Krishna and I were supposed to be on a flight to Zurich. We had been planning our trip to visit Jen for a few months, and we were going to frolic around Switzerland for a few days, then […]

Honey Buffalo Meatballs

It’s kind of interesting how this pandemic has changed my cooking strategy. I’m normally a meticulous meal planner (not meal prepper - there’s a difference) as a way to stay organized and reduce my food waste. I would plan out a week’s worth of eats based on what I’m craving, what’s in season and how […]

Sweet & Sour Chicken

Sweet & Sour Chicken

What’s your trashy food court favourite food? I don’t really partake that much any more (and obviously not right now), but in my childhood and teen years, I was a food court champion. I can still picture the scene at my childhood mall, where it usually came down to a battle between two places: NY […]

Pineapple Chicken Tacos with Jalapeño Ranch Slaw

September 25, 2019 Chicken & Turkey
Pineapple Chicken Tacos

I made these delicious tacos earlier in the summer and knew they’d be perfect for my Emmys viewing party (after copious amounts of guac & chips, natch). This is the best kind of slowcooker (or instant pot) recipe - just add everything in and turn it on. The ranch slaw is also perfect (with or […]

Jon & Vinny’s Spicy Fusilli

Spicy Fusilli

If I’m posting a savoury recipe in the Summer, you know it must be a good one. When the weather gets hot, I don’t actually cook; it’s more like I chop things and assemble them on a plate (this is my forever fave). However, after finding a recipe on Bon Appetit for the Spicy Fusilli […]

Chicken Tinga Tacos

Chicken Tinga Tacos

Could it be? Something savoury posted in the summer months?! It’s a rare occurrence around these parts I know. It’s too hot to cook, so I tend to eat a lot of salads and heaped hummus (like this) for my summer dinners. But my blog crush* is posting so many tasty summer recipes, I’ve basically […]

Beef Bourguignon 2.0

Beef Bourg 2.0

I had my first encounter with Beef Bourguignon around the time I started this blog back in 2010. I had just watched Julie & Julia, and so like every other food blogger newbie, I attempted Julia Child’s recipe that Julie Van Rosendaal adapted for the slowcooker (read about that here). It was good, but I’ve […]
