Like many of you, I vowed to get back on track this January after a month long indulgence of eating holiday sweets, eats and savoury treats. It was evident by both the scale and our jeans that the holidays had taken a toll on our waistlines, but my husband and I were ready to start the new year with a fresh start at eating healthy. Eating healthy doesn't have to mean giving up the things you love, it just means you need to watch your portion size and make smarter choices. There are … [Read more...]

Last month Patak's Canada asked facebook to weigh in on 'the great debate' when it comes to Indian cooking with Patak's. Paste or Sauce? Many of Patak's favourite flavours come in both a paste and a ready to use sauce. Which way to do you prefer? The results on facebook were pretty divided, some like the convenience of the sauce and others enjoy customizing their dish to their own taste. The consensus remained the same though, everyone loves … [Read more...]

Christmas is just days away and everyone is looking forward to that delicious Turkey dinner! Gathering around the table with loved ones is one of my favourite parts about the holidays! There is something special about looking down the table and seeing family faces from infancy (we have a new baby in the family) to Grandparents (don't worry mom, I won't tell them your age!). Year after year, our family grows! While the turkey kind of steals the show, there is no reason for the … [Read more...]

Cooking an Asian stir fry is actually something I never tried my hand at until a couple of years ago. I'm not sure why, but they seemed to intimidate me when they are actually the easiest dish ever to create! Rules are literally tossed out the window with stir fries and instead of following a recipe, I now just grab whatever needs using up from the kitchen fridge. Mushrooms, peppers, onions with left over chicken or beef. Maybe grab a can of waterchestnuts or baby corn on the cob from the … [Read more...]
