Homemade McGriddles
This copycat McGriddle recipe is perfect if you’re craving a sweet AND savoury breakfast and is pretty close to the beloved classic. I also love that it has extra protein from the cottage cheese in the batter, without making them super dense!
Sourdough Pancakes
These pancakes are fluffy and have a little extra protein from the cottage cheese! It’s my go-to when I have active sourdough starter and want to impress my family and friends for breakfast!
Garlic Soy Noodles
These noodles come together in 20 minutes and taste salt, savoury and pair perfectly with a soft, jammy egg. I like to add bok choi for a little brightness and green, but the noodles are amazing on their own!
Easy Chocolate Chip Banana Bread
This banana bread is incredibly easy to make and is the most tender recipe you’ll find! It’s the perfect snack, or breakfast, and is the most delicious with a little butter spread on top!
Easy Chow Mein
This delicious stir-fried dish comes together in less than 30 minutes, and it’s a great way to use your outdoor griddle or blackstone. It includes 3 proteins; beef, chicken, and shrimp so you have plenty of variety! This dish is so addicting, you won’t even miss take-out!
Burrata Mortadella Pizza
Episode 6 of Pizza Party Friday is my love letter to Italy! This pie brings together creamy burrata, silky mortadella, and a vibrant pistachio pesto that’s pure magic. Inspired by the flavours I fell in love with on my trip in Italy, it's nostalgic, indulgent, and guaranteed to be the star of your Friday night.
High Protein Fried Pickle Dip
With 42 grams of protein, this delicious dip is perfect for your next gathering! It combines the creaminess of garlicky, addicting chip dip with the essence of crispy fried pickles! Perfect for dipping veggies, chips, crackers, you name it!
Spicy Vodka Pizza
The addicting vodka sauce is even more delicious on a pizza if you can believe it! I make this sauce at least twice a month, whether I want to add it to chicken parmesan, pasta, or make a delicious pizza with it. It’s always a crowd-pleaser, and if you have any vegetarian friends, this pizza is the perfect substitute.
Hot Hawaiian Pizza
For Episode 4 of Pizza Party Friday, this thick-crust Hawaiian pizza is a bold twist on a classic—layered with ham, crispy bacon, grilled pineapple, and jalapeños for heat. It’s inspired by nostalgic Pizza Hut pan pies and made even better with a drizzle of hot honey.
Detroit-Style Pizza with Whipped Ricotta
For the third pizza in my series of Pizza Party Fridays, I decided to attempt the fluffy, rectangular pizza that originated in Detroit! It has a crispy, cheesy crust and it is elevated with a variety of meaty, and spicy toppings, especially with dollops of whipped ricotta!
Gnocchi Pomodoro
This delicious homemade gnocchi is so simple and comforting. Sometimes the best meals require a little effort, especially when that means you get to bite into a soft & pillowy gnocchi. The tomato sauce needs a little time to simmer but you’re left with a rich and balanced sauce to accompany any pasta!
Buffalo Chicken Pizza
For the second pizza in my Pizza Party Friday series, I decided to make a pizza that you could eat while watching the big game! But instead of shredding the chicken, I fried the chicken into little bites which was a huge game changer!
Lasagna Fritters
These pasta roll-ups are filled with a cheesy ricotta mixture, breaded, and fried, and dipped into a rich tomato sauce. They are perfect if you’re trying to get more comfortable with fresh pasta, and they’re perfect for feeding a crowd!
Savoury Crepes
Crepes are so easy, light and delicious. It’s one of my favourite breakfasts to make on the weekend when I have more time and I can make breakfast for my loved ones! Sweet crepes are amazing (you can use this recipe for them) but sometimes I prefer a savoury crepe that is cheesy, with a runny egg. If you’ve ever been intimidated by making crepes, try this recipe for a trial run!
Dill and Chive Potato Pancakes
Sometimes pirogies are intimating to make because they’re a little time consuming. But if you’re craving the flavour of pirogies, with half of the effort, these potato pancakes are for you. They have the same flavour and toppings, such as, bacon, onions and sour cream! They’re a classic comfort food in my household.
Chicken Burrito Bowls
I’m obsessed with burritos and burrito bowls and this one was so satisfying to try! It’s perfect for bigger families, because you can customize them any way you like. The chicken is so juicy and pairs so well with the fresh ingredients!
Braised Beef Tomato Sauce
One of my favourite pasta sauces is a hearty bolognese with lots of parmesan on top, and this one requires barely any prep if you already have the braised beef on hand!
