Beeteroni Pizza

The past couple of Brave New Meal recipes have been pretty laid back and relaxing. But the recipes that are coming up are definitely going to get more intensive. This is Beeteroni Pizza and there were many different components, each with their own recipes. So it is a vegan pizza with beet “pepperoni” on top….

Creamy Goat Cheese Pasta

You know I love pasta, it’s such a great meal for any day of the week and you can go in so many different directions with it. Today’s pasta is super creamy made with goat cheese which is such a delicious ingredient. I love traditional cream sauces like an alfredo but making a roux can…

Cauliflower Alfredo

I love pasta alfredo. It usually isn’t the healthiest choice because the sauce classically contains a lot of heavy cream and butter. There are many healthier alternatives out there that are equally delicious. Two varieties that I have made are Cream Cheese Alfredo and Pasta Alfredo with Squash & Broccoli. Today I made a different…

Fall Baked Brie

Want a delicious appetizer, perfect to serve to family or friends? Baked brie is a great way to go. Brie cheese on its own is fantastic but after baking, it becomes so soft and gooey. Today’s recipe, from Damn Delicious, was fall-inspired. It has brown sugar and a caramel-like topping with nuts (I used walnuts),…

Homemade Pizza

Apparently it is National Cheese Pizza Day on Sunday (September 5). I don’t need much of a reason to eat pizza, but obviously I had to celebrate this special day. I thought about making cheese pizza but I didn’t want plain cheese pizza. I like having toppings, so that’s what I did. I definitely had…

Cheese Blintzes

If you’re looking for a good breakfast/brunch idea, you should make some blintzes. I’ve grown up eating these, and I loved them. We would buy them frozen and we just pan fried or baked them. When we were feeling fancier, we would make a blintz soufflé where you bake the frozen blintzes in a simple…

Jalapeno Poppers

Happy Cinco de Mayo! If you received my email newsletter on Monday, I shared a couple of my favourite Mexican recipes there. But there was no way I couldn’t post more Cinco content on my blog! I made such a classic snack today. I guess these are more of a pub food but the main…

Cheese & Caramelized Onion Pinwheels

I love puff pastry because you can make so many different things and the result will always be delicious and super flaky. I had a sheet leftover in my freezer from when I made pigs in a blanket so I decided to use it up. This time I went in a cheesy direction. I made…

Cheese Nachos

To me, nachos are the perfect weekend snack. They great to get at a restaurant patio while drinking a cold beverage. Since most of us are still staying home because of the pandemic, making your own nachos is the way to go for now. Today, I’m sharing a super simple recipe for cheesy nachos. These…

English Muffin Tuna Melts

Do you ever have those days when you just don’t know what to make for lunch or dinner? Well this recipe is for you! I made delicious little open faced tuna melts, which were a great meal with some salad. These have very similar ingredients to the tuna melt panini that I made a little…
