Fish is a staple in our home and I am always trying to create new accompaniments, while at the same time using local foods. I enjoy creating nutritious meals that are diabetic friendly (two of my children have Type 1 Diabetes), heart healthy, and always incorporating as many colours of the rainbow that I can. This dish can be made with any white fish as it looks so inviting with the reds and greens of the sides. Wild blueberries and Halibut - a perfect marriage as opposites do attract! I have (tried) roasted beets before but was always a bit disappointed when they dried out, so I tried this crusting method and it turns out a moist brightly colored beet with just a hint of horseradish! When plating this recipe, layering creates a presentation that is not only eye-appealing, but a superb blend of flavors. Using summers' bounty means delicious fresh menus for friends and family.
Crispy bits of pancetta take this herb-packed salad a notch over the top. To ensure that the dressing clings, pat the cooked edamame and peas dry before tossing with the other ingredients. If you like, top with grilled chicken or fish for a more filling meal.
Bicol province in the Philippines is known for its spicy food, often using coconut. Here, the coconut is in the accompanying bread, Puto. In the Philippines, sweet potato leaves are traditionally used in this soup, but in Canada, spinach makes a fine substitute. Add hot peppers to taste.
Have fun with this easy family project that makes eight sleighs to fill with festive candies for gifts. However, if you like, you can just make gingerbread cookies instead.
Instead of an icing, these pumpkin pie-spiced muffins are dressed up with a complementary maple spread. In a hurry? Omit spread and serve as is or with butter.
