Dinner

I knew when I had kids my grocery bill would go up once they started eating food.  What I didn’t count on is how much it would go up and how fast.  The boys LOVE their food and seem to be bottomless pits at times.  By the time Monkey was 2 years old he would

Tourtière, also known as old-fashioned pork pie or tourtiere traditional meat pie, is a traditional French-Canadian meat pie enjoyed throughout Canada, especially in Quebec. This Canadian Meat Pie is made from a combination of ground meat, onions, savory tourtiere spices, and baked in a traditional pie crust and served as the main dish for a

If your kids are anything like mine you probably have a bit of trouble getting them to eat their vegetables. I can normally get them to eat fruit; bananas, strawberries and grapes are favourites in this house.
