It’s true, you can make a smoked grilled cheese sandwich (or a grilled smoked cheese sandwich?). Imagine the crunchy-soft and buttery edges of a few thick slices of white sourdough sandwiched around some oh-so-delicious, smokey-melty cheese. It’s practically fried gold! This is the kinda recipe that’s perfect when you’re camping. As long as you have…
The beauty of this Traeger salmon is that you can make it in one day. Yep, it’s the turbo mode method for when you don’t feel like waiting an entire weekend to have deliciously smokey maple-glazed salmon. It’s quick-cured to improve the outside texture and finished on the hottest setting at the end to set…
You could always buy your own smoked gouda, but where’s the fun in that? Making your own is easy and if you’re about to fire up the Traeger for dinner and have an hour to spare, you might as well throw some cheese on too. And when you make it yourself you’re not limited to…
***Warning: Do not proceed if you haven’t eaten already, because you’re about to get HUNGRY! These Traeger smoked burgers are next level! Unlike standard grilled burgers, these smoked burgs take it to the next level with a blast of sweet smokey flavour and an extra JUICY interior. Although you can do these on a regular…
After our recent trip to Canada, we discovered how *addictive* this brown sugar oatmilk shaken espresso from Starbucks really is. And because we don’t have a Starbucks in Maastrict, we went on a bit of shaken espresso safari and devoured as many of these frosty iced coffees as humanely possible. Unfortunately, all good things do…
*THIS* garlic butter shrimp pasta is just SO GOOD! Heads up though, if you’re not a real garlic lover, then don’t even bother scrolling down because this pasta is GARLICKY! And this is no ordinary shrimp pasta either… Because I’ve got a little secret technique that’s an absolute game-changer for a simple dish like this.…
This smoked salmon toast with soft-boiled eggs is light, vibrant and an impressive dish you can easily pull off for Mother’s Day brunch. My secret weapon here is the homemade pea puree which adds a punch of spring flavour. What I love most about this dish is that it looks great without requiring hours to…
This pea puree looks fancy, but it’s actually (don’t tell your guests!) SUPER easy to make. I like to pull this one out for a special occasion such as Mother’s Day brunch or a spring dinner that requires a little more finesse. Its smooth and slightly sweet taste bring a fresh and vibrant spring flavour…
This is one intensely flavoured rhubarb sauce… I don’t know about you, but I like profoundly flavoured sauces, especially when it comes to fruit sauces. Many people add water to their sauce when it’s really not necessary. This recipe has no added water, so the flavour of the rhubarb is strong and intense. And there…
You’re hungry and you need something quick but healthy. What do you do?! Enter, the super quick sauteed asparagus recipe. It’s delicious, easy to make and best of all it’s fast. The best part about asparagus is that it doesn’t have to be overcomplicated to taste great. As long as you have a little mayo…
This is a little riff on a classic Middle-Eastern dish named Bamia, using a highly under-rated veggie – frozen okra. I think it’s the texture that many people don’t like, but luckily you can minimize that if you know how to cook it. I’m crazy about this dish because it ticks almost every box for…
I still cannot believe how good these smoked and roasted leeks turned out. They’re so good you’ll probably forget you’re not eating meat. You’ve got everything you’d want in a vegan BBQ – Sweet, deliciously rich and warm flavours from the Raz el Hanout spice mix and an awesome smokey flavour from cooking them over…
Okay, everybody knows how delicious normal Birria Tacos are but have you ever tried Chicken Birria Tacos?! The combination of rich, smokey, dried cascabel and guajillo peppers wrapped up with melty cheese, tender pulled chicken and dipped in the flavourful broth is absolutely next-level good. What’s even better – these chicken tacos are much faster…
This Instant Pot navy bean soup is prime example of the magic of pressure cooking. Not only do you end up with that beautiful, creamy texture of the navy beans, you’re also getting a much more flavourful broth in half the amount of time. And don’t worry if you forgot to soak the beans, because…
I’m usually pretty skeptical of new twists on classic recipes, but this bbq bloody mary is an exception to the rule. It’s a delicious but strange mix of ingredients that somehow come together to make one magical beverage. It’s actually better than the original. This recipe is inspired by Jamie Oliver’s bbq bloody mary and…
