I can’t believe it’s already this time of year again—when feasting and enjoying the company of family and friends is upon us! While I’m still building up my repertoire of holiday recipes, here’s a few I’ve posted so far:
Hope you all have a happy, safe Thanksgiving! Enjoy!

One of my favourite choices at fast food restaurants is chicken nuggets! They are a tasty, easy-to-eat finger food. What with this summer’s soaring prices, I took it upon myself to test out some recipes to make my own. While not quite as yummy as deep fried, this baked alternative proves to be bit a healthier (and cheaper!). Enjoy!
Prep: 10 minutes
Bake: 15-20 minutes
Makes: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup dry bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 teaspoons dried basil
- 2 teaspoons dried thyme
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 3/4 cup butter, melted
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
Steps
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
- In a shallow bowl, combine the bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, and seasonings.
- Place butter in another shallow bowl. Dip chicken in butter then roll in bread crumb mixture.
- Place in a greased 15×10 baking pan. Bake uncovered for 15-20 minutes or until juices run clear (internal temperature should be around 160 degrees).

When I go grocery shopping I usually buy a large bunch of bananas, but since we’re only two people I sometimes have leftovers. What better way to make use of those extra bananas than to make some banana bread! Sounds easy enough, however, I don’t like walnuts in my bread and my husband doesn’t really care for chocolate chips in it (which I love!). So I figured I would try something new in my banana bread: white chocolate and macadamia nuts! The bread turned out delicious and moist, and more importantly met my husband’s approval!
Prep: 15 minutes
Bake: 1 hour
Makes: 1 loaf
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon plus 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 1/4 cups mashed overly ripe bananas (about 3 medium bananas)
- 1/3 cup milk
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 1 1/2 tablespoons banana rum (optional)
- 3/4-1 cup roasted macadamia nuts, coarsely chopped
- 3/4-1 cup white chocolate chips
Steps
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Combine flour, baking powder, salt, sugars, and cinnamon in large bowl. Set aside.
- In a separate mixing bowl combine banana, milk, oil, egg, vinegar, and rum. Beat with a whisk until blended.
- Add to dry ingredients.
- Stir in white chocolate chips and macadamia nuts.
- Pour batter into a greased 9×5 inch loaf pan.
- Bake for one hour or until center comes clean with a toothpick.
