Pinterest Pin Fail: Hasselback Potatoes

May 16, 2014 by Suzie the Foodie 17 Comments

If you are like me, you spend tons of time browsing through Pinterest looking for all sorts of foodie inspiration. When I saw a pin for Hasselback Potatoes, I fell in love. I had to try it, especially when the pin said… “Better than fries! Cut potatoes almost all the way through, drizzle olive oil, butter, […]

Kitchen Disaster: “Luscious” Lemon Cake (in a slow cooker)

May 27, 2013 by Suzie the Foodie 2 Comments

Remember how I made Apple Butterscotch Crisp/Goo from the cookbook Slow Cooker Desserts? I wanted to try and give it another chance and make something that sounded wonderful: Light and lemony, this cake has a soft and velvety texture that works especially well for those nights when a heavy dessert won’t do. Sounded good to […]

How not to make stuffed artichokes

May 17, 2012 by Suzie the Foodie 6 Comments

Finally! Artichokes show up maybe one to two weeks a year in my store and this time I snagged some. I was thrilled. The problem? I had no idea what to do with them. My only experience with artichokes was from a jar. I had only eaten the marinated hearts and when I told my […]

Singapore Noodles From Hell

May 11, 2012 by Suzie the Foodie 10 Comments

Does this dish look as devilish as it tasted? It still looks tasty damn it. Oh pretty food, how you seared me so. I wanted to make a recipe from The Spice Bible. The problem? The ingredients. I have many but there always seems to be at least one my store does not carry. In this […]

Suzie the Foodie’s Fromage Awards: Foodie Disasters of 2011

January 1, 2012 by Suzie the Foodie 5 Comments

Sometimes we all just need a little cheese in our lives. Way back when I used to live with my family we would all gather in front of the TV on New Year’s Day and watch Christopher Ward’s Fromage special on MuchMusic. Quite hysterically, he would share the worst and cheesiest music videos of the […]

My So-Called “Instant” Mini Mincemeat Pies

October 11, 2011 by Suzie the Foodie 6 Comments

When you read this post, it will become quite clear that I have never made mincemeat pies before. In fact there were a lot of “firsts” when it came to my experience of making these over the weekend. Although they might be called “instant” there was nothing easy or fast about them. Mincemeat pies are […]
