What to bring to the next potluck supper?




Spring is in the air and Summer is just around the corner! That means Backyard BBQ's, Pot Luck Suppers, Family Re-unions - everyone loves getting together to share great food!


This week I have a recipe that will wow everyone. It can be made with chicken or shrimp depending on your taste and budget - both are equally great choices.


We started making this recipe about 10 years ago and it continues to be a suprise each year because we keep changing up the veggies. Adding new vegetables and making new combinations keeps this recipe fresh. Have you tried baby bok chow - its a fabulous change and adds that vibrant green colour. We like to steam the bok chow at the same time as our shrimp in dim sum style. Another favourite is roasted tomatoes! Let your imagination run wild! You can stir fry the veggies or if you have a basket, try them on the BBQ. Your choice of of fresh vegetables will only add to the presentation of a healthy choice for dinner.


One year we made this recipe was for Kern's sister's 40th birthday party (Colette from New Liskeard is pictured above). It was enjoyed by all the BBQ lovers at the party and from what we hear, it has become a household favourite in many homes.
