Potted Cheese is an old English recipe for a cheese spread. It was originally created to use up odds and end of cheeses. I make mine with cheddar but you can use any cheese or mixture of cheeses you would like. Continue reading Potted Cheese

Smoked Snack Mix
Every year we make snack mix as part of our Christmas Tradition. You shouldn’t mess with tradition. However, I have a defective synapse or something that makes me want to try new things. I decided to make this year’s snack mix in my Traeger Timberline smoker. Continue reading Smoked Snack Mix
Cream Cheese Shrimp Rolls
As mentioned in my earlier post, we were hosting a bonspiel. This meant my good friends from Montana came up to visit. I had them and some other curlers over for appetizers on the day they arrived. Continue reading Cream Cheese Shrimp Rolls
OFG Jerky, the Video!
I have posted my recipe for OFG Jerky but I decided to make a video of my most recent production on my Traeger Timberline. I may not be a great producer but this jerky should win an Oscar!
Smoked Cheese 2019
I went to a curling bonspiel in Butte and had the chance to go to a larger city. I picked up some Cave Aged Gruyere, Manchego, Gouda, Havarti and Emental. Of course, I had to add to the flavour and smoked them! See how I do it in my earlier post, Smoked Cheese.
Caramel Apple Rolls, The Video
I have posted the recipe for Caramel Apple Rolls and done a video before but I did a higher quality video for my Community TV Show, You Can Make It. I thought you might like to have a look so here it is!

Frozen Pizza Shells
I hate to admit this. I have bought frozen pizzas. I hang my head in shame and beg the cooking gods for forgiveness. However, sometimes you just need a quick supper. Continue reading Frozen Pizza Shells
Hamburger Quesadilla
I like quesadillas but never thought to do a post on them. I don’t know why. However, I had some left over 10 inch tortillas and a left over cooked hamburger patty. Lightning struck or one of my few remaining synapses fired, I’m not sure which. Why not use them to make a Hamburger Quesadilla? I couldn’t think of a reason why not so here is how I made it. Continue reading Hamburger Quesadilla
Peanut Chocolate Chip Cookies
I love cookies. Chocolate chip cookies are particularly good. However, most chocolate chip cookie recipes have so many chocolate chips in them that you don’t taste the other flavours. Continue reading Peanut Chocolate Chip Cookies
