Weekend Cook and Tell: Brunchin' with Mom

My mum lives far away so I made her a jar of pineapple quince jam for mother's day. We'll enjoy brunch over skype eating fresh baked bread covered in this jam.

Weekend Cook and Tell: Tea Time

I made some meyer lemon squares that would be perfect for tea time. They are vegan, gluten free, and healthy so almost anyone can enjoy one with their afternoon tea.

Campfire Cooking: How To Make Chili In A Dutch Oven

A Dutch oven is a camping necessity! I love making mac and cheese on a fire because it gets a smoky flavour you could never mimic at home. And nothing beats a smoky cheesy dinner after a long day of hiking in the woods!

Here's my recipe: http://munchinwithmunchkin.wordpress.com/2011/05/25/camping-macaroni-and-cheese/

Duck Confit Poutine Burgers

Love the combination of France and Quebec!
