Growing up in Northern Ontario, we always had access to fresh fish, which is one thing I miss, now that we live in a big city. Any chance we get, during the summer, we go fishing at the cottage. Although we rarely keep our catch, I do miss feasting on fresh cooked fish. You really can't beat that! Since we don't keep our catch that often, I am always looking for great alternatives at the grocery store. Frozen isn't as good as a fresh catch, but we make it work.

I often bring sole fillets home from the grocery store and this time I decided I wanted to stuff them with asparagus. I decided to top the fillets with a crispy bread crumb topping, which I seasoned with lemon pepper. I love lemon with sole, so I knew I wanted to incorporate in somehow. The fish cooked beautifully, it was moist and tender, and the dish looked amazing. Totally something that can be made for a dinner party, since it's a gorgeous way to prepare fish and takes hardly any time to prepare.









Crispy Asparagus Stuffed Sole


1 pkg sole fillets (mine came frozen)
20 asparagus spears, trimmed
1 lemon
1/2 C panko bread crumbs
1 Tbs parmesan cheese
1 tsp lemon pepper
1 Tbs dried parsley
1 Tbs melted butter
1/4 tsp salt
fresh ground pepper


Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

Bring a large skillet filled with 1 inch of water to a boil. Season with salt and add the asparagus spears. Cook 3-5 minutes, until vibrant green and tender crisp. Remove asparagus from water and place in a large bowl of ice water. Drain and pat dry.

In a small bowl combine the bread crumbs, parmesan, lemon pepper and parsley.

Cut lemon in half lengthwise. Cut one half into 5 wedges.

Place sole fillets on a cutting board and season with salt and pepper. Place one lemon wedge in the center of the fish fillet and top with 4 asparagus spears. Fold ends of the fillets over the asparagus and lemon. Holding ends folded tightly, dip top part of the fish bundle into the bread crumb mixture. Place seam side down onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining fillets.

Bake for 10-15 minutes, until fish flakes easily and bread crumbs begin to brown. Serve with remaining lemon, which has been cut into wedges.

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
