Hello my Galley Friends. The weather here lately has been fabulous and I’ve been itching to go camping. But with so many chores to complete before the summer months (oh the joys of home ownership!), I’ve had to rail in my need to scratch that itch. Garden has to go in. Spring cleaning a must. Downstairs bathroom and laundry area is in the beginning stages […]
Hello there my Galley Folks. Glad you stopped by today because I have a tasty little casserole for you to try. I made it as a side dish for Easter dinner and F loved it so much I had to make it again…and again…and again. There’s something about the buttery crunchy topping and the custardy sweetness of the corn in each bite that makes it […]
Looking forward to a more open travel summer this year, I’ve been focusing on recipes for easy take-alongs. My last post MAKE AHEAD FREEZER OATMEAL COOKIES continues to be a big hit. And I expect this may be as well. When I’ve been on the road or out on the water all day, the last thing I feel like doing is cook…which gave way to this […]
Hello there my Galley friends. So very glad you dropped by. I was in the mood today for an easy supper, so created this little number for you to try. Very much a take on traditional grilled cheese but with Middle Eastern flavours, in the style of a Mexican quesadilla. Load these as you wish. More cheese. More veggies. Double up the tasty donair meat […]
Good day to you Galley folks. You can thank my daughter and her current housing ‘condition’ for today’s recipe. They have recently purchased a home that needs renovating and instead of continuing to live in their tiny apartment with two active monkeys they decided to move into their basement while contractors make the home liveable. They created an ingenious set-up in the room that will […]
With rising prices and uncertain fresh food supply, I’ve been turning to simple meals, with easy to keep on hand ingredients. Sweet potatoes are the perfect example. Long shelf life. Very nutritious. And usually inexpensive. This easy recipe using frozen cheese tortellini pasta with a few handfuls of fresh spinach offers a delicious supper with a rather pretty presentaion. Making it even simple as far […]
Hi there my Galley friends. Good to have you drop by today. I have for you a tasty little number, perfect for breakfast, brunch or easy supper. And you can make it a day ahead, all ready to pop in the oven. It’s in the style of bread pudding with a base of bread, milk and eggs but definitely on the savoury side….with all the […]
Hello there my galley friends. I’d like to be able to reel you in by bragging about how healthy today’s recipe is but this is not the case (how’s that for negative marketing?) Tasty…so very tasty, yes. The ultimate in comfort food, yes. But let’s get real. Smoked meat or any processed meat is not the healthiest kid on the culinary block. We don’t indulge […]
Hello there Galley friends or should I say top of the mornin’ to you? I gave my guy a choice of what he would like for this year’s Saint Patrick’s Day treat. A traditional cooked breakfast with some tasty Irish potato cakes or Irish bread pudding. Silly me! Of course he chose the dessert. Lucky him! Lucky you! I made a few changes to SIMPLE PEACH […]
This week I’m in plant-based heaven again. I was enjoying a weekend morning cocooning in bed doing catch-up on some reading while having the TV on for some background noise and what do I hear?…’leftovers’? Got my attention it did. The recipe had a name very similar to something I made for you a while ago…MUJADDARA which is what it’s called in Middle Eastern culinary circles. […]
