RECIPES | Breakfast All Day Fries with McCain's #Modifry

I don't know about you, but I love having breakfast at lunch or dinner time, not just for breakfast. There's something comforting about eggs, potatoes and bacon that I appreciate any time during the day! So, what do I do? Use my bag of McCain's #Modifry to cook up a breakfast-inspired snack! I called it, the "Breakfast All Day." Keep reading for my super easy recipe.



French fries are usually the accompaniment of a burger, sandwich or other "main" entrees but I think it's time they shine on their own. With McCain's new #Superfries, it makes it easy to elevate a simple french fries dish to something beyond with everyday ingredients. I wanted to make something with some of my favourite ingredients. Yes, this means there's lots of bacon and lots of cheese - classic Monica style.

With simple ingredients and directions, this recipe is perfect when you want a savoury & satisfying snack without having to wait too long or if you need to prepare something fast for friends coming over on short notice.

Serving size: 2-3
Prep time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

McCain's #Superfries 5-Minuts Shoestring (Swap for Straight Cut or Crinkle Cut)
Few slices of bacon, cooked halfway
1-2 eggs
Mozzarella & cheddar cheese, shredded
Green onions, chopped
Baby plum tomatoes, halved

Directions:

1. Pre-heat the oven to 450°F / 232°C

2. On a pan, spread out the fries & bake in the oven for 4 minutes (turn over halfway)


3. Once the fries are almost cooked, take the pan out of the oven and place toppings on top, starting from the cheese.


4. After placing the tomatoes, bacon, and green onions, add more cheese (duh) and place back into the oven and bake for 15 minutes.

In the mean time, cook up a sunny side up egg to place it on top of the fries.


5. Once the cheese is melted, bacon crisp, tomatoes soft,  and fries are showing that golden colour, place it in your favourite bowl or plate, pop the yolk and let it ooze out over the fries & enjoy!

See? How easy was that?

As mentioned previously, you can swap out the 5-Minute Shoestring fries I used for the crinkle cut fries or the straight cut fries - the choice is yours.  I love that the new #Superfries are super easy and wastes no time (I hate wasting time). Literally, tear open the bag, place on a pan and place in the oven for a few minutes.  The possibilities are endless when you cut out the time you'd be making fries with potatoes from scratch.

EVENT | Our Recap on the Delicious Food Show 2014 - what we ate, drank & loved!

The 3-day Delicious Food Show, perfect for food lovers in Toronto is back for 2014. Unlike other culinary shows that happen in the city, what I like about DFS is that it's not massive and overcrowded but has a good number of exhibitors and features an impressive list of celebrity chefs, cooking demonstrations and workshops - talk about interactive!

REVIEW | Light Cafe

We find Baldwin Village to be a street in Toronto that is ever growing. You'll never know what to expect in terms of businesses that will pop up! Not to mention it's diverse food culture including gelato, ramen, Italian, Filipino food and so much more. It doesn't surprise us at all that Light Cafe decided to take residence on Baldwin.  I have traveled quite extensively through Asia and can say with confidence that Light Cafe looks exactly like a cafe you would find in Taiwan. Not only is it spacious inside, I love the minimalist decor inside which provides a calming atmosphere. I could see myself sitting at the cafe for hours (within reason haha) and getting some work done.  The first thing that we noticed and I'm sure many of you will as well - is the living wall. I don't think I've ever been to a restaurant where there was a living wall but I've always wanted one of my own. With the natural sunlight coming in with the wall, it's the perfect place to f...

WORKSHOP | Sausage Making Class at The Healthy Butcher on Eglinton!

Recently named 'Best Butcher in Toronto' by Now Magazine, the Healthy Butcher   just may become your go-to butcher shop for organically & locally-sourced meats as well as sustainable seafood!  It's no surprise that The Healthy Butcher caters to those that 'live to eat' as they're passionate about food themselves. In fact, they're so serious, that they offer educational and fun workshops on roasting, knife skills, butchering and lots more... The hands-on workshops and classes are held on weekday evenings and range from $40 to $125 per person depending on the class.  With an intimate group, you'll be sure to learn a new set of skills at these 2.5 hr classes at The Healthy Butcher in the company of other food lovers.  When I first heard about their workshops, I thought it would be a perfect team-building exercise for co-workers but it would be great to take friends or family as it's a great time overall.
