What's an easy recipe a babysitter can make?
Cindy Jamieson
One pot meals that don't require much attention are great for babysitters. A few minutes browning the meat and cooking the onions, is all that is needed for this sensational Chicken Thighs and Rice with Honey dish. It can't get any simpler than this and the kids love it too! http://hunwhatsfordinner.blogspot.ca/2011/11/chicken-thighs-and-rice-with-honey.htmlWhat's a great spring or summer recipe that uses corn?
Cindy Jamieson
My girlfriend's mother shared her recipe for creamed corn with me. It has become a family favourite and I always make a double batch during the summer, and freeze it for winter. Super easy, but SO delicious. http://hunwhatsfordinner.blogspot.ca/2011/10/creamed-corn.htmlCan you share an easy, crowd-pleasing birthday party cake or cupcake recipe? (please include a link to a photo!)

With the warmer weather among us, I think of fresh strawberries. This cake has amazing strawberry flavour, yet is super simple to make. To lighten it a bit, I use whipped cream to frost the cake, while adding a burst of freshness by adding fresh sliced strawberries in the center. Chocolate dipped strawberries, which decorate the cake, make it a definite show stopper.Please share a link to a photo of a great birthday cake you made or bought.

This is a cake that I recreated for my Mother in Law's 50th birthday. I had seen Bakerella make cupcakes and use the chocolate decorations as toppers. I adapted her recipe to make a 3 tiered cake and used her stencil for the decorations. My mother in law said it was the best birthday cake she's ever had! http://hunwhatsfordinner.blogspot.ca/2008/12/thanks-bakerella.htmlCan you recommend a great summer snack to feed kids on break or to pack for days at camp? (Please include a link to the recipe.)

The kids are crazy for peanut butter and apple wraps. They don't have to be refrigerated and have a perfect combo of carbs, protein and vitamins, to give them the boost they need. http://hunwhatsfordinner.blogspot.ca/2011/01/sky-is-falling-apples-wraps.htmlFrom peach pies and berry cobbler to lemon shortcake and watermelon popsicles, fruity desserts are perfect for summer. Please share your favorite fruit-based dessert, and include a link to the recipe and photo.

Nothing beats the heat like bananas foster with a scoop of ice cream. I decided to switch it up a bit and turn a favourite dessert, into a cake. This upside down Bananas Foster cake is sure to be a crown pleaser!!! http://hunwhatsfordinner.blogspot.ca/2011/07/gluten-free-banana-upside-down-cake.htmlWhat's a family-friendly recipe that would be perfect for a summer or Fourth of July gathering -- whether it's a grilled dish, a simple side or festive treat?

I'm all about getting the kids to eat healthy food, without them thinking it's healthy. The sweet dressing on this Spinach-Tomato Mozzarella Salad, makes this salad super kid friendly. Quick, easy, delicious and stunning! http://hunwhatsfordinner.blogspot.ca/2011/09/spinach-tomato-and-mozzarella-salad.htmlWhat's one of your favorite one-pot recipes? (Soup, casseroles, etc.)
Cindy Jamieson
Soup is one of my favorite go to one pot meals. You can throw anything in a pot with some stock and cream and it turns into a comforting and delicious soup. One of my family's favorite soups is Baked Potato and Corn Chowder with Bacon. Creamy, slightly sweet and smoky, it's a perfect way to use up leftover baked potatoes this summer!! http://hunwhatsfordinner.blogspot.ca/2012/02/baked-potato-and-corn-chowder-with.htmlWhat's a healthy lunchbox menu your child loves?

Baked Chicken Taquitos are perfect for the lunch box. They are a great handheld meal, that will keep well in an insulated lunch box.What's your favorite muffin, scone, or bread recipe? Please share a link to the recipe and a photo if you have one.
