Modern & Traditional Seasonal Recipes
Hello and welcome to kellyneil.com! This is where I share painstakingly tested, easy baking recipes for biscuits, muffins, and scones, cakes and cupcakes, and my absolute favourite—cookies and bars. I also love to post my favourite family meal ideas, and classic recipes I grew up with such as Nova Scotia seafood chowder and Nova Scotia oatcakes. I like to think I have a little something for everyone and I hope you enjoy!

This is where you’ll find my most viewed and shared recipes. My creamy Nova Scotia seafood chowder has been at the top for a long time and for very good reason! If you’re a seafood fan, you should definitely check it out. Other than that my top recipes are generally a mix of baked treats and comfort food like beef stew and buttermilk quiche. What more do you need?
Family Meal Ideas
What’s the easiest thing to cook for dinner? Pretty much any of these family meal ideas! My Dutch oven beef stew takes a few hours to simmer on the stove, but it’s still one of the easiest recipes on my site. Need supper on the table faster? Make creamy pesto gnocchi with only five basic ingredients in less than 20 minutes. For something lighter try my easy shredded chicken salad with grapes and almonds. Yum!

Simple Homemade Desserts
Got a sweet tooth? Me too! Don’t worry, I’ve got you covered. You don’t need a special occasion to bake cake from scratch or whip up a batch of sweet treats. I mean come on, I can practically eat a jar of homemade lemon curd just with a spoon. Go ahead and eat that cake for breakfast. I won’t tell!

Recent Recipes
Here’s what I’ve been working on lately! I tend to focus on Canadian/American classics like homemade molasses baked beans or this simple sausage goulash. But, sometimes I like to experiment with flavours like chai-spiced Rice Krispie treats or matcha chocolate chip cookies. I love traditional recipes but I also love to play!
