Elegant Summer Salads

Summer Sun-kissed Tomato-Water Vinaigrette with Olives, Cucumbers & Grilled Haloumi | www.canolaeatwell.com

I love the long weekends that the summer offers us.  Those warm days full of sun, laughter, food, family, and friends!  When entertaining I find my best recipes are those that are simple and can be made ahead.  This simple but elegant salad is just perfect for that summer get together.

Copper hammered mugs!

Copper Mug | www.canolaeatwell.com

They are great for all types of beverages but perfect for those hot summer days and nights.

You can find them almost anywhere.  Traditionally they are for a Moscow mule cocktail but you can enjoy any drink in them.

You may have read some misinformation about the copper mugs, but that is what it is, just misinformation.

Need a Moscow mule recipe, check out Esquire!

Popcorn & Fairs with food!Cinnamon Roll Popcorn | www.canolaeatwell.com

July is Fair Season in Alberta and cannot wait to meet everyone at events around the province. Our first stop is at the world-famous Calgary Stampede, then Taste of Edmonton and East to Vermillion to a three-day regional fair.

Popcorn is always my favorite snack at these events: regular, kettle corn or caramel. One of my favorite homemade recipes is Cinnamon Roll Popcorn. This popcorn bursts with flavour but only takes a fraction of the time of regular flavoured popcorn to create at home. You will love it! See you at the Fair this summer at the popcorn booth!
