Get the latest recipes from Jgnat http://www.grouprecipes.com/people/jgnat Borrowed with minimal modification from Jean Pare's famous 150 squares. Promised to be extra rich and chewy. The take-out tins make these easy travellers for bake sales and potlucks. http://www.grouprecipes.com/106877/chewy-candy-bars.html Obama caused a stir on his first visit to Canada as President when he visited the ByWard Market outside Ottawa to buy a few mementoes for his family. The "Moulin du Provence" shop is now famous for their Obama Cookies, an imitation that is offered here. Mine is a rich shortbread. http://www.grouprecipes.com/88125/obama-canada-cookie.html Chicken is flavorful and tender, vegetables filling in this recipe low in calories (152) and high in fiber (3 g). I served with couscous. Recipe is in "Healthy Pleasures" from the Canadian Dietetic Association. http://www.grouprecipes.com/85306/grilled-mexican-chicken-stir-fry.html Borrowed from Jean Pare's "Company's Coming" series, you can make your own convenience food out of a family pack of ground beef. The same recipe can make prepared frozen hamburgers and meatloaf. Don't be put off by the cook time. Most of it is unsupervised. http://www.grouprecipes.com/85305/swedish-meatballs-plus.html This is another holiday breakfast treat, as it takes some preparation the night before. This recipe is from a child's book of recipes, "Loaves and Fishes" (c) 1980, as it is an easy-peasy version of a souffle. I've modified it for just the two of us, but it is easily doubled for a crowd. http://www.grouprecipes.com/83049/make-ahead-breakfast-puff.html Made fresh Christmas morning, these were a hit right out of the oven. http://www.grouprecipes.com/83005/bran-up-cinnamon-rolls.html I made this Christmas morning for the two of us, served with a toasted english muffn. It's nutritious, filling, and low in fat. http://www.grouprecipes.com/83004/upside-down-omelet.html This fast and easy four point breakfast is a low glycemic, comforting and filling. It carries me well in to the day. http://www.grouprecipes.com/80911/bachelorette-breakfast-oatmeal.html A childhood favorite for my Hungarian man and my thoroughly Canadian granddaughter, this plain and simple meal always satisifes. http://www.grouprecipes.com/80903/hungarian-tomato-soup-and-pasta.html Just like baking bread, pasta from scratch takes time. Do this on a day when you plan on spending a few hours in the kitchen. Kneading and shaping the pasta takes upper-body strength. Brace yourself, or commandeer a child hungry for some one-on-one mom time. http://www.grouprecipes.com/80897/scratch-whole-wheat-pasta.html
