It’s Cinco de Mayo today, so it’s a perfect excuse to log this Frito Pie that I made a couple of months ago. Although who really needs an excuse to cover chili with corn chips and cheese and call it dinner? Certainly not me. I can’t think of where I first heard about Frito Pie,......
Sometimes “professional” food bloggers take themselves a little too seriously for my liking. By professional, I mean those who blog full-time, while I maintain my amateur status so I can blog in the Olympics (Bonus points if you get that Friends reference). I was trolling on a few of my favourites to my friend Jenn......
I’ve been posting a lot of dinner recipes lately, and I love it. I’m on a hot streak of kitchen hits and I have to document them here or I totally forget about them. I’ve actually made this TWICE in the past two months, which may not seem like a big deal, but to me......
Remember the good old days when there were still Olive Gardens in Toronto? My friends and I used to go in high school and I vividly remember having chicken parmesan there and it blowing my mind. Deep fried crunchy deliciousness topped with tomato sauce and so much cheese. Holy cow. Throw in the salad and......
I’m obsessed, OBSESSED I say, with these Kung Pao Chicken Tacos that I found on How to Eat over my Christmas holidays. I met the lovely Dara & Erin at the Food Bloggers of Canada conference last year, and their blog is one of my favourites that I’ll visit if I want some fresh, healthy......
Updated with a new picture January 12, 2017 Dear Future Byn circa Fall 2014, Hey! What’s up! So you got really excited and bought a spaghetti squash at the Farmer’s Market, huh? Amazing! Instead of doing what you did in Fall 2013, which was spend an hour Googling spaghetti squash recipes because you couldn’t remember......
  It’s Gastropost Saturday guys! Can we make this a thing? I’m going to start posting the recipes for whatever I’ve Gastroposted for the week on the Saturday that the mission is in the paper. Well, I’m going to try anyway. Our mission for this week was Sporting Goodies so we’re supposed to share what we......
When I was in high school, I babysat for a family for with three little boys. Their mom was in nursing school, and I sometimes slept over when she was on night shift. (Did I mention she was a single mom? In retrospect, holy cow.) Anyway, on those nights, she would prepare dinner in advance,......
Our Gastropost Mission this week started as a joke on Facebook, after they asked us to guess the next ______ vs. ______ Mission. Someone guessed Bacon vs. Everything Else, and they loved it so much it became the Mission for the week. I love it! The vs. Missions are my favourite, and I love a......
You may have already guessed this, but it’s pretty rare that I cook the same thing twice, especially when it comes to weeknight dinners. I wouldn’t say I have anything even close to a regular rotation of recipes, since I’m constantly bookmarking and pinning new things to try. But every once and a while, I’ll......
