The very first feature I did for Super Food Ideas magazine was called “Double Duty” where I shared recipes where one base mixture was used for two purposes. So for example, I did a Garlic Lime Marinated Prawns (Shrimp) with Green Rice where one lime and garlic mixture was used to marinate the prawns and as the flavour base for a green spinach rice. Using a salad dressing as a marinade for chicken is Double Duty in its simplest form and this Lemon Chicken Salad is a terrific example where the Lemon Dressing works as a fantastic marinade to infuse chicken with flavour – quickly!...

Happy New Year! The holidays just whipped on by and now we have a long winter ahead. This is the time of year I try to clean out the cabinets and use up anything I can find just so I don’t have to trek out to the store in the blustery cold weather.

You might recognize a few of them (or at least have a familiarity with the word “borscht”), but others will likely be pretty new to you....

But they ARE light in flavor and texture. Many of these have notes of cinnamon, vanilla, caramel, or all of the above. You’ll also notice that some of these are not ridiculously sweet (some are, don’t worry). Regardless, every one of these Mexican pastries is absolutely divine....
