Like pea soup, robust lentil soup is enhanced by the flavourful addition of smoked meat.
Belgian endives have a luxurious buttery taste when cooked. Depending on what Canadian washed-rind cheese you use, you can have a mild or assertive sauce. St. Paulin gives a mild result, while Oka has a bit more sharpness. Full-flavoured Canadian Raclette cheese is perfect. Le 1608 de Charlevoix or Le Migneron from the same region, both of which have a rich flavour and somewhat pungent smell, also work well. Canadian Gouda is excellent, too.
You won't miss a whole turkey with this twist on German-style rouladen. It takes a fraction of the time to cook (even with its luscious pan sauce). Leftovers are great in a sandwich or on top of a tossed salad, so if you make this meal for two, you can look forward to a turkey lunch the next day.

An Italian twist on the toasted western, this sandwich uses provolone cheese, prosciutto and oregano. Topped of with fresh peppery arugula, this one will be a hit with the kids and adults.
