Okay, so it’s been a while since I have posted. Spring got away from me a little, but I have remained active on Instagram showing you what craft beers I have been trying out. One of the great beers I did try this spring, but waiting until now to post, was the Ten Peaks Pale Ale from Canmore Brewing Company. When I had this beer, I thought it would be great to incorporate it into a recipe, and alas, here…
I have made tacos, or taco-like dishes before, and a couple of times with beer. These are a little different in that I am using my Instant Pot to make the shredded tasty chicken part of the taco. And, of course, there is beer involved! These Lager Beer and Pineapple Juice Chicken Tacos were undeniably my favourite of the tacos I have done. They were juicy, full of flavour, and just down right addicting.
Are you looking for a simple dinner that can be made on a busy work night? This saison beer sauteed chili shrimp recipe is so quick, it is now a staple in our house. Weeknights… weekends… lunch… it is a recipe appropriate for any time of the day. We will often saute meat and/or vegetables with chicken broth instead of oil to cut down on the fat, so I thought it would be just as good to saute in beer….
Everything we cook these days is on the grill. It is way too warm to be hunched over a stove or oven, inside a stifling hot kitchen. Instead, we sit outside, in the shade, throw food on the grill, and enjoy craft beers. Summer isn’t my favourite season (gasp!), but this is my favourite part about summer; grilling outside (or smoking!) and enjoying summer craft beers like IPAs, radlers, and wheat beers. And of course, if you don’t know by now,…
Pasta and craft beer are two of my favourite things, so combining them in this creamy chicken pasta felt like a natural fit. This recipe actually came together while using up a few ingredients I had on hand—some vegetables, chicken, a bit of cream, and of course a good craft beer. The result was a simple, flavourful pasta dish that comes together in about 30 minutes, making it a great option for a quick weeknight dinner.
We bought this Cosmic Autumn Ryebellion Red Rye IPA beer in the fall and used it to make this Red Rye IPA Mushroom Ragu recipe back in the fall as well. Now that it is basically spring, and this was an autumn beer, the beer is out of production for the season. But really, you can use any kind of beer you would like for this recipe, and actually an IPA will make the mushroom ragu more bitter than one…
Gose beer is one of those beers that is meant to be enjoyed on a hot summer day. It is refreshing, sweet and sour, and light. It also works perfect when steaming mussels! Basically, any recipe you have for mussels that calls for white wine, replace with a gose beer and you have Gose Beer Steamed Mussels! Easy, tasty, and fun! I made mussels on Chews and Brews a long time ago – two versions in one post, both made…
Cauliflower is kind of a big deal. It can be found on almost any menu these days: fried, roasted, in salads and soups, or as an alternative to carbohydrates as in cauliflower rice. I am not going to lie; I am totally the type of person that jumps on food-trend bandwagons and hangs onto them with all my might. Another trend that started a long time ago is “Meatless Monday’s” and we like to incorporate meatless meals on Monday’s as…
