Bundt Pan Grilled Chicken

Follow my blog with Bloglovin


A moist and juicy whole chicken, cooked on the grill in a bundt pan.



While working at a Natural Food Market, I was introduced to Herbamare. It is a sea salt that is blended with amazing herbs and spices. The result is truly delicious. We used it in several dishes, from roast potatoes and chicken rub, to salad dressings.

Sea salt contains calcium, magnesium, trace elements and other minerals, which are eliminated when sea salt is transformed into table salt. That's why table salt has such a bright white colour, while sea salt is not as pristine.

Since I had thawed a whole chicken for dinner, I decided to season it with the Zesty Herbamare Seasoning Salt and fresh ground pepper. I wanted to taste the wonderful flavor of the salt, on the chicken. We all agreed that even though it was so simply seasoned, it was some of the best chicken we have tasted in a long time.






Bundt Pan Grilled Chicken

1 whole chicken (mine was about 4 lbs)
1 1/2 tsp Zesty Herbamare (contains a touch of red pepper and horseradish)
fresh ground pepper
1 C Margarita mix (feel free to substitute lemon lime soda)

Preheat your grill to 400 degrees.

Rinse chicken and pat dry. Place butt end of chicken over the centre spout of the bundt pan and insert the spout into the chicken; until chicken is securely in place. Season with Zesty Herbamare and fresh ground pepper. Pour the margarita drink (or liquid of choice) into bundt pan.

Place bundt pan in the centre of the grill. Depending on how many heat sources your grill has, you can turn the centre heat source to low, while keeping the left and right heat sources to medium high. Grill chicken for approximately 1 1/2- 2 hrs; until the internal temperature taken in the thickest part of the thigh reaches 170 degrees.

Using oven mitts, remove bundt pan from the grill and set on a trivet to rest for 20 minutes.

No Yeast Old Fashion Cinnamon Rolls

 These delicious cinnamon sticky rolls have been in my family for over 40 yrs. No yeast is required, so you can whip up a batch of these in no time. Still tender, sticky sweet and delicious! Ever since I can remember Mom would make these as a special treat. It wasn't too often, but every once in a while, we'd come home to these no yeast cinnamon rolls, as an after school snack. Growing up, this is what I thought cinnamon rolls were. I wasn't aware that there was a yeast version of cinnamon rolls. As much as I LOVE the yeast version, this no yeast version seems to make an appearance more frequently here at home.  Since there is no yeast in the dough, it does not need to rise for 30 minutes before being rolled out and baked. When I worked in the retirement home the residents were always excited when I made these cinnamon rolls. They said it reminded them of their childhood. It was amazing seeing how happy a simple recipe could make them. I don't make these very often and

50+ Creative Cottage Meal Ideas

When the warm weather hits many of us head to the cottage, to enjoy the sunshine and time near the water. Instead of always packing up burgers and hot dogs, I've rounded up over 50 creative meal ideas for delicious breakfasts, lunches and dinners. Ever since I was little my family always enjoyed a few weeks camping at a near by provincial park, during the summer months. When us kids, became older and moved away, Mom and Dad bought a trailer which remained parked at a location, so we would often go and visit for a few weeks then too. My mom has always been an amazing cook and with her outside kitchen often made our family favourites, even at camp. Now that my SO and his family have a cottage, we are frequently there for most of the summer. Hamburgers and Hot Dogs seem to be our go to, so I wanted to collect new creative meals perfect to make while camping, or at the cottage.  Breakfast Recipes Healthy Banana Milkshake Thick, creamy banana milkshake made without ice cream, dairy, and

Sam & Cat Sloppy Waffles

 A nod to the popular preteen TV show Sam & Cat, these s loppy waffles pair classic sloppy joes with crisp waffles. Years ago, my daughter fell in love with a kids show called Sam and Cat. This show melds two shows the kids use to watch together. It stars Sam Puckett (Jennette McCurdy) from iCarly and Cat Valentine (Ariana Grande) from Victorious. It's a witty and fun show and the kids loved the hijinks these two girls get into every week. In one particular episode, they get stuck inside a secret room, they find in their apartment (which use to be Cat's Nonna's before she moved to Elderly Acres). While they are stuck in the secret room, Cat mentions her idea of Sloppy Waffles, which pairs waffles and sloppy joes. Sam falls in love with the idea and once they are rescued by their friend Goomer, the show ends with the girls enjoying Sloppy Waffles. We recently watched the episode on Netflix, and the kids commented that we should try to make Sloppy Waffles. I thought it wa
