Baked Chilaquiles Verde With Eggs

Chilaquiles (pronounced "chee-lah-KEE-lehs") is a Mexican dish that traditionally simmers leftover tortillas in zesty salsa. Our version is a one-pan wonder loaded with zucchini, tomatillo salsa, eggs and tortilla chips that are soft in the pan’s centre and crispy around the edge. 

Chocolate Banana Cake

New York Style Cheesecake With Pineapple Rum Sauce

This tall, creamy cheesecake has a delightfully retro feel. A pinch of allspice in the batter adds a hint of the tropics. The pineapple topping is best if made just before serving.

Slow Cooker Mini Orange and Ginger Cheesecakes

This simple method for cooking cheesecake means a less-fussy water bath and no cracked tops. Lining the underside of the slow cooker lid with paper towels keeps the moist heat in while also preventing condensation from dripping onto the cakes. If you use canning jars, these individual cakes are easy to take to a dinner party; just screw on the lids, tote them in a cooler and garnish before serving. Cost: $1.60/serving

Apple Crisp Tartlets

Enjoy all the pleasures of crumble-topped apple pie in a delightful hand-held size. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream for an even more indulgent dessert.

Chocolate Caramel Pecan Torte

Smoked Trout and Shallot Quiche

Mild and rich smoked trout is special enough for a festive brunch tart.
