Cabbage and White Bean Soup with Cheddar Cheese Muffins

Serve this wonderful satisfying soup for the main course and finish with a green salad. Perfect for casual entertaining! And the good news is that this meal is elegant, yet easy on the budget!

Chorizo and Cabbage Soup

Chorizo sausage adds spicy heat to this hearty winter soup. The fat left in the pan after cooking the meat infuses the cabbage with flavour. If you're not a fan of sweet potatoes, you can substitute with the yellow-fleshed variety.

Heirloom Carrot & Wheat Berry Salad

Wheat berries can take upward of 75 minutes to cook. Soak them overnight in water to help speed up the cooking time.

Caribou Stew

Caribou is one of the staple ingredients in Nunavut cooking. It's classified as country food; or food from the land, and it's one of the only truly wild meats. Caribou is sometimes available at specialty meat shops across Canada or by special order directly from purveyors in Nunavut. Availability can vary from season to season, so if you can't find caribou, then elk, venison or beef can make a delicious substitute. Serve with Bannock.

Weeknight Stroganoff

I always loved Beef Stroganoff, but it was a little daunting to make. I would have to cook all day to serve my guests. I took the basic flavours of the recipe and made it so easy, we can even have it during the week.

Mexican Pork and Black Bean Soup

This chunky soup is all about the fixings! Crisp lettuce, fiery radishes, creamy avocado and tangy sour cream top bowls of tender pork, beans and vegetables to make a balanced supper. Buy whole canned tomatoes and crush them with your hands for a rustic texture.

Thai Vegetable Curry Bowl

Look for Thai yellow curry paste in Asian grocery stores or supermarkets (many carry the Thai Kitchen brand). Red and green curry pastes work well too, but they are spicier. This is a gluten-free recipe, so make sure all the prepared ingredients you use, such as fish sauce, are labelled “gluten-free.”

One-Pot Salmon with Vegetables & Tarragon

Flavourful fish and loads of fresh veggies make this simple dish the perfect spring meal.

Sweet-and-Sour Fish

Pulled Chicken Mole Tacos

Chocolate is one of the most versatile ingredients in baking—cookies, cakes, pies, ice cream, mousse...you name it! But did you know you can use it in savoury recipes, too?
