    Pretzel-Crusted Beer Cheese Macaroni and Cheese

    October may have been months ago, but I figure time stands still for good food, right? While this Pretzel-Crusted Beer Cheese Macaroni and Cheese sounds like a total Octoberfest dish (did this even happen last year *sigh), it's absolutely appropriate any time of the year! I've been known to make Hot Beer Cheese Dip in the middle of August, in the hot, humid south because...well cheese + beer + dip, it's kind of self-explanatory!

  • Prep tonight for an easy tomorrow! I love a loaded breakfast, but a no-fuss, make-ahead breakfast that's layered with bread, ham, apples, onions and cheese then soaked overnight is the best! Apple Ham and Cheese Breakfast Casserole is the perfect start to any weekend. Make it tonight for a stress-free morning. A favourite during the holidays.

    Apple, Ham and Cheese Breakfast Casserole

    I adore a good breakfast dish. Especially one that I can make the night before. One of my favourites is my cousin Chandra's Land of Nod Cinnamon Buns. If you haven't tried that one, add it to your must-try list, but right above that, pencil in this Apple, Ham and Cheese Breakfast Casserole. It's just as good and the total package. This one will fill you up until lunch. It's savoury with just a hint of sweetness from the apples.

It's extra creamy and cheesy and one of the best sides to ever exist, EVER! I've gone ahead and added a block of cream cheese, cause, well, why not!? Top it with cornflake crumbs and bake until it's golden and bubbly and you've got an easy side dish for dinner. One the whole family will love!

Don't worry, I'm going to lend you mine, it's super easy, and loaded with comfort.

    Porcupine Meatballs with Mushroom Cream Sauce

    Porcupine Meatballs with Mushroom Cream Sauce literally my favourite birthday meal EVER! I don't actually remember what I would ask for as a kid, but as a teenager and every year since this has been my birthday meal. Except for the one time my mom was out of town and my Dad made me a steak with peppercorn sauce. There was even that one time when my brother threatened to eat all the leftovers and I may have had an adult tantrum. No lie.

    Curry Chicken and Broccoli Stuffed Shells

    Curry Chicken and Broccoli Stuffed Shells is the perfect weeknight meal for your family. It's such a classic recipe. You've probably tried a version of this dish before. It was likely called Chicken Divan, or maybe Broccoli Chicken Curry Casserole or some variation of that and served over rice. With this version, however, I've upped the comfort factor and stuffed all this curry goodness right inside a pasta shell.
