Well, this is the second time Melanie makes this dish, and this was the first time we’ve made it together! Much like the first time, this rolled turkey breast was absolutely delicious, and I wish I had a spare stomach for suppers like these. This is the perfect dish for small holiday gatherings as a 2 pound turkey breast can easily feed 6-8 people!
We decided to try something new with this recipe post, and if you venture past this intro, you’ll notice we’ve added collages of candid prep shots. This should provide you with more insight into our kitchen manners, and I give full credit to Melanie for this idea. She’s been quite the shutter bug in the Kitchen lately!

It’s hump day and for some god forsaken reason I decided to spend a solid hour in the kitchen, actually, make it two, cooking up a storm. It had been a while since I had dedicated myself to a few new recipes, and tonight was the night for me to break that slump. This is the first of two recipes I worked on, and these potato pancakes are hands down the best potato pancakes I’ve ever tasted. Read on for the full directions!

We recently had a Caribbean cookout, as some might say ‘Bachannal’, the weather was hot and the drinks were cold: Perfect for a caribbean day full of food! This salsa originally called for habanero peppers, a full cup of them, but their rarity in Southern Ontario made it rather difficult to find, so I used hot yellow peppers. (Recipe adapted from 28 cooks). Add the sweetness of the pineapple and you’ve got a medium spicy salsa that is addictive!

A savory summer sandwich
Melanie was away for the day so I had to fend for myself….just the chance to try something completely new! We’ve recently discovered these amazing whole seed pitas from Pita Break (Go Canadian food!) and I felt like adding bbq grilled chicken breast and some random homemade sauce to it all. Add some fresh lettuce mix, soft cheese and voila!
