Vinegar Cleaner

This week marks the passing of my dear Grandmother, Katie. It’s hard to believe she left us – five years ago now I think it is. Those who have my book, or follow me here on Cat Can Cook, know I loved her dearly, and she taught me so much about cooking and household “stuff.” [...]

Sorry I’ve been busy……..but I AM still here! I Promise!

Catherine Robertson — Mon, 02 Apr 2012 16:21:50 +0000

I just wanted to assure all of you that I am still very much alive! I really appreciate the words of concern and e-mails strangers and friends have sent wondering where I have been recently. Cat Can Cook *is* a passion for me, but sadly, this is not a paying gig. Making recipes to share with [...]

PC Pad Thai Cooking Sauce

Catherine Robertson — Mon, 20 Feb 2012 02:42:12 +0000

It’s been one of those crazy weeks. Quite an emotional roller-coaster in fact! Early in the week I got some amazing news about my other business Elanne & Ivy. Then I got some not-so-amazing news, followed by more happy news. The icing on the proverbial cake came when I caught a cold. That part was [...]

Super Easy Pasta Prima Vera

Catherine Robertson — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 02:34:56 +0000

I cannot think of an easier and yummier dish than this! It takes all of about 20 minutes from start to finish, and it is so good your family will LOVE it! If you don’t like ham, leave it out and sub in grilled chicken, or omit the meat completely for a veggie version. Play [...]

The Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookies

Catherine Robertson — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 16:37:34 +0000

I have a pretty good chocolate chip cookie recipe that I use on a regular basis, but today I decided to try a new one. I have this great book my Mom got me, which is called Old-Fashioned Cookie Recipes, so I thought I would try out a new one, and I am glad I [...]

Frittata Prima Vera

What could possibly be cooler than this amazing looking and tasting meal, with next to no work? Nothing – I know! Frittatas look all fancy-pants but they really are about the easiest thing since sliced bread! No culinary skills required at all for this one folks. Just follow a few basic steps, whip this beauty [...]

Greek Souvlaki in a Pita

Catherine Robertson — Fri, 06 Jan 2012 21:02:31 +0000

This is a little taste of summer right in the middle of our Canadian Winter! Admittedly, this winter has so far, been very mild but I was craving a light and healthy summer-type meal and this fit the bill perfectly! You can make the souvlaki ahead of time, and toss these together in minutes at [...]

Cat Can Cook on Breakfast Television

Catherine Robertson — Wed, 04 Jan 2012 00:53:45 +0000

A brand new year is upon us! With it comes hope, seemingly infinite possibilities and fresh beginnings! Since I started a Facebook group for Cat Can Cook, I have been rather lax about regular posts here on the main site, favouring instead, the simplicity of quick Facebook updates and interactive forums. I didn’t really realize [...]

Oreo Cheesecake

Catherine Robertson — Mon, 19 Dec 2011 22:44:31 +0000

Oh My goodness! It has ben ages since I last posed on this poor, neglected blog of mine! Busy with Christmas preparations, my other business Elanne & Ivy with Christmas orders and last minute shows, and generally just keeping things running here at home have sure had me hopping. I wanted to stop for a moment [...]
