Overnight Raspberry Skillet French Toast

Overnight Skillet Raspberry French Toast – Love in a Pan

By //  by Candace Sampson 4 Comments

Sometimes breakfast is just breakfast, and sometimes it's a work of art. Case in point, this recipe for Overnight Skillet Raspberry French Toast. There is something about baking in a skillet that is just genuinely beautiful. I make my banana bread in my skillet, and this Skillet Berry Crumble is beautiful to serve, but also makes an perfect gift (hint: you leave the skillet behind). The secret to any great french toast recipe, in my humble opinion, starts with challah. Yes, you can …

Blueberry Grunt – A Traditional Cape Breton Recipe

By //  by Candace Sampson Leave a Comment

When I was a young girl I went to a place called Blueberry Hill near Little Bras D'or on Cape Breton Island, and sat on an ant hill. A red ant hill. I carry the memory of being bitten a thousand times by angry little bugs in my head like it was yesterday. Forty three years later I still cringe at the humiliation of being stripped to my birthday suit in front of perfect strangers as my dad desperately tried to shake the tenacious little jerks loose. When we returned to my grandmother's …

The “I’m Getting Lucky” Beef And Beer Stew

By //  by Candace Sampson 2 Comments

First, let me preface this by saying, you may not get lucky if you make this Beef and Beer Stew. I can't guarantee that your amour won't have a headache that night, or that maybe they'll be doing their nails. What I will tell you is that your odds of getting laid are significantly higher if you make this stew than if you don't. That is the only promise I'm going to make, alright? Okay, let's talk about this stew for a second because it's downright orgasmic, damn it. What? I'm just keeping …

Baked Cheese in a Skillet AKA Crack

By //  by Candace Sampson 10 Comments

This Baked Cheese in a Skillet is one of the easiest recipes to whip together which is also what makes it so flippin' dangerous. Cheese has it own special little place in the food world. Addicts the world over know the pleasures of cheese and how hard it can be to stop eating it once you start. The other thing cheese addicts know? Melted cheese is even better. When I was thinking what can I share as my Life Made Delicious post this month I figured this was a pretty safe bet because cheese really …
