“My cheddar biscuits are perfect as a quick snack before milking… They freeze well, so I bake a double batch to save time!” ~ Meaghan Thornhill It is officially cold here and there is nothing more comforting than homemade biscuits, at least not to me. Add some cheddar and garlic? Pure winter comfort food. All […]
Chives’ Buttermilk Biscuits
For our 11th wedding anniversary Reg and I went to Chives Canadian Bistro where I was introduced to their buttermilk biscuits. Loved them! How cool is it that you can find the recipe and story about these biscuits on their web site? Forgetting to order the bread for the opening night and recreating a family recipe […]
Tyler’s Better Buttermilk Biscuits with Thyme & Cheddar
In Canada, Thanksgiving is literally around the corner. It sneaks up on me every year! As usual, I do not feel ready to celebrate next weekend. What would Thanksgiving be without delicious homemade biscuits? Actually, it would have been our house a few years ago before I learned how to bake. I used to get […]
Favourite Recipes from Old New Brunswick Kitchens’ Potato Biscuits

Recipe Review: Anna Olson’s Angel Biscuits
I watched the retro food episode of Fresh With Anna Olson’s and was totally intrigued with her Angel Biscuits but I do not remember them getting as HUMUNGOUS as mine did! I always wondered how how you make those rolls that split open so easily so you can wedge some butter in there to melt from the heat of […]
Lynn Crawford’s Cheddar Cheese Biscuits
I took a foodie day yesterday. Even though as you can see from this photograph that it was a rare sunny and beautiful day, I stayed inside and played with food.

I’m back baby!
I did it. I broke through that foodie wall and made this amazing Lime Chicken Sandwich on a Cheese and Chorizo Biscuit. This recipe is totally inspired by Rachael Ray who loves big flavours and that is what I always look for, with a dash of comfort food. I had this sandwich with Leel’s recommended […]
Recipe Review: Anthony Sedlak’s Cheddar Corn Cakes and Jalapeño Chive Butter
I was worried about Anthony Sedlak’s Cheddar Corn Cakes and Jalapeño Chive Butter being spicy but because I took the seeds and the ribs out they were just super tasty. I think jalapeños are very misunderstood! They add such a lovely fresh flavour to food. Now when you go to Food Network Canada’s site to find […]
