Classic Club House Sandwich

Chicken Recipes

The classic pub style sandwich you can have at home instead of getting out into the world which is currently going through a corona virus pandemic. The classic club house is one of my favourite sandwiches when out a pub and munching down on some pub food classics. This is a recipe that you can enjoy in the comfort of your own home, especially for those that can not get out and about as they normally would. I created a classic club at home with a couple of changes that worked out just great but feel free to substitute ingredients as you see fit. I boiled the chicken for a quicker meal prep and the bacon was baked in the oven to avoid mess covered in aluminum foil, you'll need to bake longer then time shown if you prefer your bacon to be crispy. I am not a mayo fan so replaced it with some old style dijon mustard and the texas style toast bread is a must, make sure you use real cheese slices and not the process kind for best taste.

Sweet and Savoury Sweet Potatoes

Sweet Potato Recipes


Well Happy 2020 to everyone, I am back again sharing a wonderful side dish recipe that can go with just about any dish from meat to fish. Sweet Potato is a healthier alternative to regular potatoes as they are packed with fibre and are a rich source of minerals which include calcium and iron. This recipe is quick and easy to make as long as your fine with getting your hands a bit dirty. Get yourself out a large bowl to mix the potatoes with all the ingredients that are being used and you will also need a large baking sheet to lay out all the potatoes so that they are evenly cooked. They key ingredients to this recipe along with the sweet potatoes are honey and cinnamon, these two additional ingredients will give the dish a sweet, smokey and savoury taste, so make sure you do not omit them from the recipe.

Sausage and Veggie Casserole

Sausage Recipes


As the season starts to cool off and move into the fall I like to get into the kitchen a little more often to make some warm and hearty meals. This easy to make sausage casserole will have you making it over and over again as a weeknight or weekend meal for yourself or any company that you may have. The best part is that you will have plenty of leftovers for work and will keep your kitchen clean for a few days afterwards. You will need a large casserole dish something larger then the usual 13 x 9 inches and I prefer to use mini/fingerling potatoes as I enjoy the taste of the potato skin but if your using a regular potato I would go with a russet potato quartered. You can also add any vegetable that you may like but I would avoid any that hold a lot of  water like a tomato, cucumber or zucchini and stick to the more solid vegetables to avoid a mess in the casserole dish. I used Italian style sausage which are easier to find and although my preference is the spicy sausage a mild or fennel type would do just fine.

Spiced Stewing Beef

Beef Recipes

As the summer ends I seem to turn my cooking attention to savory meals, that you just can not get off those summer BBQ sessions. This is the perfect time to start enjoying delicious stewing meat that just tends to melt in your mouth with every chew. Stewing meat is always a tough cut of meat and should be seasoned and stored in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours minimum but if you can do 24 hours then even better. The key to getting the meat to its soft point is to make sure you boil it in a beef broth for an extended period of time, so this meal tends to be ideal for when you have a free day with a lot of hours on your hands. The searing is another important part of this recipe because it will hold the juices in the meat as your spiced beef works its way to perfection, make sure that you add a favourite side dish to go along with your beef. Rice, vegetables or any of your favourites should be served along side your meat.

Sweet and Spicy Roasted Carrots

Sweet and Spicy Carrots

The summer is upon us and as we get outdoors and enjoy the weather we turn on the grill and cook. The one thing that we need when we are grilling meat on the BBQ is a good side dish to go along with it. This is a simple side dish recipe that goes along with just about anything that you have as an entree. You will need to pick up a large bag of carrots, peel them, then to have your guests in awe, cut the carrots on a diagonal angle as shown in picture. This will ad a little fanciness to your side dish of carrots. The seasoning is what will give your carrots that sweet and spicy taste so do not omit the cinnamon or chili powder, a little sea slat for the palette and my favourite for most recipes at bit of garlic. Make sure to use a baking dish that is 9 x 13 this will be large enough to hold all the carrots.

Roasted Green Beans

Side dish recipes


This is a perfect green bean recipe for all those vegetable lovers out there. Green beans go well as a side dish for many different main entrees and this recipe is a good replacement for those that enjoy french fries but would like a healthier option. Roasting the green beans in the oven for an extended period of time will give them a crunchy texture, it will almost be as if you are eating fries but I would think twice about adding any ketchup. The key of this recipe is that when you are roasting the green beans on a baking sheet make sure that you separate them individually so that they roast evenly, use a mixing bowl to season the beans with all the ingredients and mix them together with your hands. Make sure that you keep an eye on the green beans while roasting them in the oven and do not exceed the cooking time or the beans will shrivel up and not bearable to eat.
