Quaker Choc-Oat-Chip Cookies recipe

An easy butter baked cod topped with crunchy almonds. No fuss, easy clean-up and tastes great. A nearly perfect fish main dish. Norwegian or Atlantic cod works well as does any other firm fleshed white fish.

A Greek favorite that makes everyone think you are a master chef and is sooo easy to make!! I taught a Greek friend how to make apple pie and she taught me this fabulous recipe. The phyllo dough for this recipe is found in the freezer section of most grocery stores. Add a little lemon zest to the sugar sauce, if desired.

This apple ricotta pie turned out delicious. I used homemade granola instead of the cereal, and it is much lower in fat and calories. Still tasted wonderful.

A tasty yet good-for-you dessert that will have you hooked after every serving!

Loaded with fruit, protein, grains and nuts. Yummy and chock full of nutrients. Grab n' go power bars.

A special treat that could be used as a quick breakfast on Christmas Day or as a snack during the holidays.

Roasted squash and apple gave the soup lots of yummy flavor, chopped hazelnuts added some crunchy texture and nuttiness. We served it with a savory pie together, perfect. Or you can serve the soup with a loaf of good bread.

This recipe was made by a neighbor and given to me. He told me to try it and then he would tell me what it was made with. I tried it, loved it, and asked him for the recipe. He went and got it and now i make it all the time. Who knew Saltine crackers and chocolate went so well together!! I would recommend it to anyone. I get people at work who tell me to bring it in all the time. It is loved by everyone who makes it.

Love the almonds, pecans, and pumpkin seeds in my granola, and this recipe has its all. Plus maple syrup is my favourite go-to sweeter as well. I usually use dried apricots and mangos instead of raisins. Serve it with plain yogurt and fresh berries if they are seasonal. So yummy!

If you love scalloped potatoes, you will adore this scrumptious dish that is the perfect side when preparing a pot roast for dinner.

Roasting gives the brussels sprouts deliciously smoky taste, maple syrup adds welcome caramelization, and the toasted hazelnuts brings warm nuttiness. Even if you are not a fan of these cute small cabbages, you will change your mind after this dish.

Deliciously moist banana nut muffins are great for breakfast. Easy to make, and freeze well. For a even healthier version, use half whole wheat flour to replace half all-purpose flour.

Mapleleaf roast turkey... it's a big yum fest with this Thanksgiving turkey. The crispy browned skin is like Canadian Peking duck. Roasted and glazed with a reduction of maple syrup and apple cider does the trick. It's like a Canadian recipe eh?

This is a quick, easy way to saute asparagus. The dish has a light flavor and makes a great accompaniment to Italian meals. I make this year-round, but we especially enjoy it at Thanksgiving
