Mac 'n' cheese, mushroom and sausage gnocchi, and cheesy roasted cauliflower—all these recipes are a cinch to make as long as you prep a big batch of our sauce.
Gingerbread overload? There's no such thing! These soft, chewy ginger-spiced thumbprints are filled with a tangy cream cheese icing for the ultimate holiday treat. A sprinkling of chopped crystallized ginger gives the cookies an added festive touch.
This can be prepared to serve in a dip bowl, or it can be rolled in waxed paper in 11/2 inch rolls about 6 inches long, chilled (or frozen for future use after 1/2 hour thawing). You can garnish it with red/ green pepper designs such as holly leaves with berries. Served with a knife spreader with crackers, melba toast, or baguette slices. I love the combination of flavours, and the buttery taste of the cheese. Always a hit!
Our super-fresh twist on grilled cheese is bursting with creamy guacamole, gooey cheese and spicy chorizo. Pico de gallo, or salsa fresco, is an uncooked salsa that takes just minutes to make. Spoon some of it into the sandwiches and serve the rest on the side with tortilla chips for dipping or tossed with greens.
Rich in flavour and colour, this soup is comfort food at its best. Croutons tossed in a blue cheese vinaigrette add zip to each hearty bowlful.
You can't beat a classic comfort dish like mac 'n' cheese. It's a family favourite, student soul food and late-night crowd-pleaser. Making it from scratch isn't difficult—once you prep a big batch of the sauce, the rest is child's play.
It looks like a quiche, but it's magical how the batter forms its own bottom crust and filling as it bakes. As comforting as macaroni and cheese, this pie is a surefire kid-pleaser.
This nutty cheese ball is always a crowd-pleaser, is easy to throw together and can be made the day before! The garlic toasted pita chips make it even more delicious.
A little milk and flour make a luscious, creamy sauce without the addition of whipping cream or too much cheese. Look for nutty spelt pasta in the organic or gourmet section of your supermarket, or substitute with whole wheat.
