  • Pea Soup (Sivet)

    Here's one crockpot recipe that's a standby at our house--pea soup. We often eat it with cornbread.

  • Greek Chicken

    Easy to prepare in the slow cooker and since it takes 9-10 hours to cook on low, its a great recipe for when you will be away from home all day.

  • Potato-Tomato Gratin

    Potato-Tomato Gratin

    I found this recipe in Aug/Sept 98 Canadian Gardening magazine; whenever I am leafing through magazines the recipes always catch my eye.  It seemed like an odd combination to have tomatoes and potatoes together but we find it quite tasty.

    We enjoyed it for supper tonight.

  • Potato and Cheese Soup

    We use the same basic recipe for cauliflower, broccoli, pumpkin, asparagus, or mushroom soups.  Use the desired vegetable in place of potato.  Add complimentary seasonings and herbs.  Use a milder, white cheese with cauliflower and broccoli.  Cumin seasons cauliflower.

  • Creamy Potato Soup

    The grade 6 class makes this as part of their unit on pioneers.  Then they usually make biscuits with it.  At college Jonathan and Dawn both had roommates from Prince Edward Island (potato country), so they have had this at college as well.

  • Twice Baked Au Gratin Potatoes

    These are a favourite I “discovered” one day while making supper.  The two recipes were on top of each other and I accidentally combined them.  They were a hit, and when mom went to make them another time, she found out what I had done and improvised as well.

  • Ruam

    Real ruam as we had it in Nigeria uses African yam as the staple, and there are many variations on the sauce.  In Canada, we continue to enjoy this version of it occasionally, and almost always on Christmas Eve. This makes a finger food, but you must make sure the potatoes are hot so that the gluten does its work.

  • Perogies

    A Ukrainian dish usually served either boiled or fried with onions and topped with sour cream.  I don't know what a true Ukrainian would say about our method.  Elbert really likes these.
