- [Creamy Broccoli and Butternut Squash Soup](https://www.bestofbridge.com/creamy-broccoli-and-butternut-squash-soup/) - After somehow accumulating a fridge full of broccoli, making a big pot of broccoli cheddar soup seemed to be a good course of action. This version is bulked up with some butternut squash. Serve it with a bit of crusty bread and you've got a full meal.
- [Sticky Honey-Garlic Chicken Drumsticks](https://www.bestofbridge.com/sticky-honey-garlic-chicken-drumsticks/) - Chicken drumsticks are my son's favourite - and if I'm honest, I secretly love them too. They're inexpensive, perfect for eating with your fingers, and are like a meatier version of chicken wings - more meat, less skin, but still wonderfully, finger-lickin' sticky. I recently tried a version with honey and garlic - my
- [Gail's Cantuccini](https://www.bestofbridge.com/gails-cantuccini/) - Gail Hall has been a positive force on the Alberta culinary scene for decades - she was an award-winning caterer, broadcaster, food writer, educator and international culinary tour guide who knew everyone and shared everything from her cooking school and loft on 104th Street in Edmonton. We've known her for years, and like most others
- [Sesame Noodles with Pork](https://www.bestofbridge.com/sesame-noodles-with-pork/) - It's Chinese New Year this weekend, and while we'd love to brave the crowds at some of our favourite Chinese restaurants, we decided to pick up some ingredients in Chinatown and make a few of our favourite things at home. Noodles are always a hit around here - especially quickly fried with a mildly spicy sesame
- [Curried Dal Dip](https://www.bestofbridge.com/curried-dal-dip/) - It's Super Bowl weekend, which means many of us will be snacking on the couch, and offerings in the chip and snack aisles have doubled. But snacking doesn't have to be unhealthy - there are plenty of dips out there that aren't based on mayo, sour cream and cheese (not that there's anything wrong
- [Apple-berry Pie for Pie Day](https://www.bestofbridge.com/apple-berry-pie-for-pie-day/) - Happy 3.14 - Pi Day! We can still get local apples at this time of year, and a handful of fresh or frozen berries make such a delicious accompaniment, adding a hit of tartness and colour to the usual apple filling. Virtually any kind of berry works, from blackberries to blueberries to raspberries -
- [Chewy Date + Walnut Bars](https://www.bestofbridge.com/chewy-date-walnut-bars/) - I love a good chewy bar, like a brownie only without the chocolate - these are essentially blondies, rich with butter and brown sugar, which acts as a blank canvas you could add anything to. These are made with crunchy nuts and chewy dates, which are a winning combination. Soft Medjool dates are most
- [Coca-Cola Ham](https://www.bestofbridge.com/coca-cola-ham/) - Easter dinner calls for a nice juicy ham and this one, decorated with pineapple and cherries, is worthy of the occasion. The cola and keeps the ham nice and moist without making the meat too sweet.
- [How to Roast a Turkey](https://www.bestofbridge.com/how-to-roast-a-turkey/) - Easter is coming up quickly, and many families roast a turkey instead of a ham - it's perfect for feeding a crowd, and provides an excuse to make (and eat) stuffing! If you have a turkey on your menu this weekend, here’s a refresher. We took some guidance from local experts Darrel Winter and Corinne
- [Asparagus Soup](https://www.bestofbridge.com/asparagus-soup/) - Spring has sprung, buds are starting to appear and green things are poking out of the ground. Which means in Alberta, it's almost asparagus season. While asparagus from California or Mexico is generally available year-round, it doesn't compare to that which is grown right here - it's not exactly a common back yard crop,
- [Maple Walnut Granola](https://www.bestofbridge.com/maple-walnut-granola-2/) - Homemade granola is a virtuous thing. A handful of it will ward off hunger (I keep a ziplock baggie of it in the car at all times) and layering it with some homemade or local Bles Wold vanilla yogurt and frozen berries will give you the healthiest breakfast imaginable. It also makes great muesli, if
- [Olie Bollen](https://www.bestofbridge.com/olie-bollen/) - This seems like a classic Best of Bridge recipe - homemade doughnuts made from a recipe handed down over generations. After all, you only make doughnuts when you have friends and family around to eat them. Olie Bollen are traditional Dutch apple and raisin fritters - the easiest kind of doughnut to make. There's no
- [Quick Carrot Apple Salad](https://www.bestofbridge.com/quick-carrot-apple-salad/) - The extended family came over for an impromptu dinner tonight - my nephew made burgers, and I scoured the house for something to make a salad out of. We had no greens, or kale, or anything green, really - but we had tons of carrots, and I remembered a grated carrot salad we ate at
- [Overnight Oatmeal with Apricots and Coconut Milk](https://www.bestofbridge.com/overnight-oatmeal-with-apricots-and-coconut-milk/) - As ready as we are to ease into spring, in a lot of the country it still feels like oatmeal season. Warm up those cool spring mornings with a slow cooker full of creamy oatmeal that you put on to cook the night before, just before bedtime. This recipe, from our latest book The Family
- [Chocolate Beet Cake](https://www.bestofbridge.com/chocolate-beet-cake/) - Like zucchini, many of us see an abundance of beets over the summer, and no family can live on borscht alone. We love boiling and then pureeing beets and tucking them into a cake for extra moistness, colour, and flavour. If you go for a non-chocolate cake the beets will turn it a nice pink
- [Liege-style Waffles](https://www.bestofbridge.com/liege-style-waffles/) - On a trip to Waterton last weekend to help kick off the third annual food festival (it's on now, until June 4!), I was thrilled to finally visit Waffleton, the new(ish) waffle shop founded by the creators of Wieners of Waterton. Not only do they have divine buttermilk waffles made with batter they raise overnight,
- [Almond Cilantro Pesto](https://www.bestofbridge.com/almond-cilantro-pesto/) - This time of year we crave things that are fresh and green and it doesn't get any fresher or greener than a homemade herb-packed pesto. This pesto is made of easy-to-find ingredients and can be whipped up in a matter of minutes — whenever you need a little something extra to go with a springtime
- [Homemade Lemonade](https://www.bestofbridge.com/homemade-lemonade/)
- [Roasted Cauliflower Salad with Spicy Tahini Dressing](https://www.bestofbridge.com/roasted-cauliflower-salad-with-spicy-tahini-dressing/) - Cauliflower is such a great vegetable — it's substantial enough to anchor a vegetarian meal and also makes a hearty side to go alongside a piece of grilled fish or meat. The other handy thing about cauliflower is that the flavour is mellow enough that you can use it as a vehicle for a number
- [Broccoli + Asparagus Cheddar Soup](https://www.bestofbridge.com/broccoli-asparagus-cheddar-soup/) - During the summer months, I tend to overload on the greens - my fridge is always packed with asparagus, broccoli, kale, chard, spinach, and all those good things that grow so well (and are so cheap) at this time of year. Inevitably, some of those things get wilty and wind up in the freezer,
- [No-knead Pizza Dough](https://www.bestofbridge.com/no-knead-pizza-dough/) - It's back-to-school time, when schedules tighten up and there's suddenly less time to get dinner on the table, but I have good news for you: the no-knead bread that took over the internet a few years ago also makes amazing pizza dough. You can mix it up the night before, and make pizza in minutes
- [Grilled French Toast](https://www.bestofbridge.com/grilled-french-toast/) - Most often, backyard barbecues are fired up to cook meat - burgers and steak, generally - and almost always used at dinnertime. It’s a shame that such a useful cooking tool rarely sees its full potential - outdoor grills provide high, direct heat that’s ideal for cooking much more than burgers. The fact that cooking
- [Blueberry Shortcakes](https://www.bestofbridge.com/blueberry-shortcakes/) - BC blueberries are here! To celebrate, we made a batch of easy cream shortcakes on BT Calgary this morning, with berries in the dough as well as simmered to spoon over the split biscuits. Add some whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and you have a dessert that tastes like summer.
- [Blueberry Pimm's Punch](https://www.bestofbridge.com/blueberry-pimms-punch/) - Pimm's No. 1 Cup is a gin-based liqueur with an herbal flavour. It's particularly popular in England, where it's typically served in pitchers with lemonade (or, if you're feeling less traditional, ginger ale) and chunks of fruit and cucumber. It's a cool and refreshing drink that remains ubiquitous in the U.K. during the summer and
- [Inside-Out Chocolate Chip Cookies](https://www.bestofbridge.com/inside-out-chocolate-chip-cookies/) - Back to school time is cookie season for us - I don't know whether I make them out of self-preservation or to fill lunchboxes. Everyone needs a little comforting treat when summer comes to an end, and I like baking a batch of cookies on the weekend to wrap and tuck into lunch boxes all
- [Classic Bolognese](https://www.bestofbridge.com/classic-bolognese/) - Although it still feels like summer, and we still eat outside when it's sunny enough, fall is definitely here - back to school time makes me crave those classic dishes from my childhood: shepherds' pie, chili, classy chicken, and spaghetti loaded with sauce. When we start getting back into the groove of fall schedules,
- [Herbed Bulgur Salad](https://www.bestofbridge.com/herbed-bulgur-salad/) - Many people overlook fresh herbs as a potential salad ingredient - classic Middle Eastern tabbouleh is a notable exception, loaded with flat-leaf parsley, grains and typically cucumbers and tomatoes. It's a perfect candidate if you have all three growing in your back yard (or at their peak at the farmers' market), but if you want
- [Watermelon and Mint Granita](https://www.bestofbridge.com/watermelon-and-mint-granita/) - Granitas sound like they may be fancy, but in reality, all a granita is is a homemade slush. It's a refreshing option for a summer dessert — the icy treat will cool you down on a hot summer day, but it's lighter than ice cream or frozen yogurt. We like just eating granita out of
- [Chocolate Zucchini Cake](https://www.bestofbridge.com/chocolate-zucchini-cake/) - If you're like us, you've got plenty of zucchini hanging around your house right now and are probably getting tired of chopping them up and putting them in stir-fries. Which brings us to one of our favourite classic Best of Bridge recipes: our Chocolate Zucchini Cake. The zucchini makes this cake nice and moist, the
- [Boozy Brown Butter Loaf Cake](https://www.bestofbridge.com/boozy-brown-butter-loaf-cake/) - Brown butter seems to be all the rage these days — for good reason. Cooking butter in a pan so that the milk solids turn a golden brown gives butter a deep and nutty flavour. Brown butter is great over vegetables and adds a unique flavour to baking. We love putting it in this deceptively
- [Winter Slaw](https://www.bestofbridge.com/winter-slaw/) - Need a new idea for a crunchy Thanksgiving salad using wintry vegetables? Sure, you could go the kale route, but why not try chopped napa cabbage and thinly sliced or shaved jicama or kohlrabi? Both are fresh and crunchy; kohlrabi is a brassica vegetable and once peeled, tastes like the inside of a broccoli
- [Creamy Green Sauce](https://www.bestofbridge.com/creamy-green-sauce/) - While it can be fun to dress up a piece of grilled meat with a nice marinade, sometimes we like just seasoning meat with salt and pepper and then throwing it on the grill. That said, sometimes it's nice to have some sauce on the side if your meat needs a little extra flavour. This

- [Traditional Strawberry Jam](https://www.bestofbridge.com/its-strawberry-season/) - Canning and preserving fresh produce is more popular than ever. It's a fun and easy activity for the whole family but it's also important to follow all the rules. The flavour, texture and appearance of this jam outshines a store-bought version every time. The difference is amazing and store-bought can't hold a candle to jam
- [Creamy Chicken, Corn & Vegetable Chowder](https://www.bestofbridge.com/creamy-chicken-corn-vegetable-chowder/) - With so many veggies at their peak in the fall, it's a great time to make a hearty bowl of chowder. This recipe makes great use of leftover roasted turkey and stock, too - often we'll just use a meaty stock that has not been strained, rather than measure out leftover roast chicken or
- [Samarna's Mutthiya Kebabs](https://www.bestofbridge.com/samarnas-mutthiya-kebabs/) - My sister works with plenty of great cooks, but Samarna stands out as a truly exceptional home cook - she invited me to her kitchen earlier this year to cook, and made the most amazing ground meat kebabs - like large meatballs she shaped in the palm of her hands. They were simple, but
- [Peanut Butter Hot Chocolate](https://www.bestofbridge.com/peanut-butter-hot-chocolate/) - Hot chocolate is a staple around here, but we sometimes get tired of the usual cocoa mix (cocoa + icing sugar) swirled into warmed milk. Since we're all fans of peanut butter and chocolate, years ago I tried swirling a spoonful of creamy peanut butter into hot chocolate, and it was a hit. Rich
- [Barley Banana Bread](https://www.bestofbridge.com/barley-banana-bread/) - Banana bread is a staple at all of our houses, but we always like to sneak in a nutritional boost wherever we can. This loaf is made with overripe bananas (the ones that tumble from the freezer whenever you open the door) and barley flour - along with regular all-purpose flour, it adds a
- [Classic Gingerbread](https://www.bestofbridge.com/classic-gingerbread/) - Everyone needs a good gingerbread recipe in their repertoire; this is a classic, and can be used for gingerbread men or any other shape. If you want to hang them, poke a hole with a straw near the top of each cookie before baking, and slide a string or ribbon through after they cool.
- [Old-School Jelly Meatballs](https://www.bestofbridge.com/slow-cooker-jelly-meatballs/) - Like a lot of readers, we love so many of the original ladies' entertaining recipes. For example, no matter how cooking trends change, if there's a dish of Jelly Meatballs on a buffet table, we're going to grab a toothpick and eat at least a couple of them. Simple and convenient to make, the jelly
- [Slow Cooker Dill Pickle Soup](https://www.bestofbridge.com/slow-cooker-dill-pickle-soup/) - This time of year we crave a good belly warming soup — and homemade soup is even better if you let it simmer away in the slow cooker while you're out skiing or playing in the snow. The feeling of coming how to a warm crock of soup is one of the best parts of
- [Olive Cheese Balls](https://www.bestofbridge.com/olive-cheese-balls/) - There are some recipes that are so essential to individual families' holidays that the thought of doing Christmas without them is just unfathomable. In Elizabeth's family, that recipe is for Olive Cheese Balls — little puffs of cheesy shortbread wrapped around green pimento-stuffed olives. Elizabeth's mom always made them for her annual Boxing Day party
- [Slow Cooker Nuts and Bolts](https://www.bestofbridge.com/slow-cooker-nuts-and-bolts/) - Nuts and bolts are a holiday cocktail party staple, we can't imagine the season without them. It's fun to experiment with different flavours — sweet, spicy, curried — but we also like sticking to this classic, dressed with Worcestershire and plenty of butter. Since our ovens are usually full of cookies, flaky appetizers and other

- [Salsa Verde](https://www.bestofbridge.com/salsa-verde/) - The name just means “green sauce.” This recipe — not to be confused with the Mexican sauce of the same name, made with tomatillos — is so easy to make, and is a perfect accompaniment to rich meats.
