Chicken Pasta in Creamy Beer Sauce

Chicken Pasta in Creamy Beer Sauce

I love pasta almost as much as I love craft beer, so making this chicken pasta in creamy beer sauce was a best of both worlds for me! When I was planning to make this, I was basically cleaning out the fridge. I had a few veggies, some thawed out chicken, a little carton of cream, and, of course, some craft beer. Using another Alberta craft beer from GP brewing, and the remnants of my fridge cleanup, I ended up…

Lager Beer Braised Chicken with Pasta

Lager Beer Braised Chicken with Pasta

Braising meat with beer just sounds like a fantastic idea to me. People braise meat with wine, so why not beer, right? That is how this lager beer braised chicken with pasta was inspired. And I am thankful for the inspiration because this dish was amazing, if you don’t mind me tooting my own horn. Obviously I love my own cooking and love sharing all the recipes that work (yes I have a lot of failures I don’t share!) but…

Slow-Cooked Bolognese Sauce

Slow-Cooked Bolognese Sauce

I made this recipe a few times and soon realized that it needed to be put on the blog. For one, I really want to share the goodness with all of you! And second, the piece of recipe paper that I am using to create this is getting pretty gross; full of food droppings, crumpled edges and smudged words. It’s time to type out the slow-cooked bolognese sauce! If you are looking for a quick and easy sauce to make, this…

Vegetable Ricotta Lasagna

Vegetable Ricotta Lasagna

Pasta is one of my favourite things to eat and lasagna tops the charts for pasta dishes in my books! I usually make my lasagna with ground chicken or turkey, but I decided to try out a full on vegetable ricotta lasagna for a change. Okay, who am I kidding… I, once again, had a boat load of vegetables in my fridge that I needed to use up in a hurry! I seem to over shop for vegetables, forgetting I…

Butternut Squash Sauce with Italian Sausage Pasta

Butternut Squash Sauce with Italian Sausage Pasta

Butternut squash is by far my favourite of the squash family! Did you know that squash is a fruit and not a vegetable? I just learned that! There are so many forms of squash available including the pumpkin which is a real hit at this time of year. Try looking for a fall recipe without finding something “pumpkin spice” – it’s all the rage! I am going to shine the light on the sweet butternut squash today and share with you a…

Portobello Mushroom Stroganoff

Portobello Mushroom Stroganoff

What is a person to do with 20 portobello mushrooms? I think I mentioned once before that my neighbour often brings home large amounts of food from his job and shares with us. Once he gave us a giant bag of poppy seeds, where I made some poppy seed lemon loaf. I still have poppy seeds… Now he has given us 20 portobello mushrooms and unlike poppy seeds, they need to be used fast or they will rot. To use them up…
