Catfish Maki Rolls

Maki rolls are what many people really refer to when they say 'sushi'. The rolls consist of almost any kind of filling surrounded by sushi rice, rolled up in a sheet of roasted nori (seaweed) and sliced into bite-size pieces. Tobiko, or flying fish roe, adds a hint of crunch and colour. Find tobiko, nori sheets, Sriracha and mirin in Asian supermarkets and some large grocery stores. Serve with sushi soy sauce.

Chunky Monkey Waffles

Fluffy peanut butter–infused waffles topped with homemade strawberry jam and chocolate-dipped bananas make for the most fun brunch ever.

Whole Wheat and Oat Sandwich Loaf

Whether it's freshly sliced, or toasted and spread with butter and jam, this is a fantastic breakfast bread. It's full of flavour, rich in fibre and moist, yet beguilingly light textured.

Shepherd's Pie

Economical (and tasty), this quintessential British mix of meat and potatoes proves that some meals are just as good the second time round. This interpretation of two meals in one invites a family of four to enjoy a garlic-and-thyme-rubbed roast one night then potato-topped beef and gravy the next.
