Maple Leaf Foods approached me the other day as part of a contest asking Western Canadian bloggers to submit their best pork recipes.
I’m incredibly honoured that they wanted me to participate and just learned that I had one of my recipes accepted!
It’s for Apple & Bacon Stuffed Roast Pork with Maple Bourbon Glaze.
You can get the recipe by visiting their Facebook page. If you vote for mine as favourite, you can also get 50% off a Maple Leaf Prime Pork product.
The contest is all part of a launch of their new Prime Pork product line.
Go to the Maple Leaf Prime Pork Facebook Page, click on the VOTE HERE button and look for the recipe submitted by A.P. Benton.
Happy cooking!

The Winnipeg Leisure Guide hit stands August 12.
Available direct to Winnipeg Free Press subscribers, and through arenas, civic pools, libraries, leisure centres, and 200 local retailers, it lines up hundreds of activities to keep Peggers busy through the fall.
Given that two of my favourite leisure activities are cooking and eating, I’m always thrilled to see what’s available in the cooking section which has been expanding year after year. It’s buried in the adult leisure segment, but I’ve extracted the food pages and posted the image below.
At the the very back of the guide there’s also a special foodie interest lineup (although they’ve titled it “foody”) at the Assiniboine Park Conservatory. According to the guide: “The foody series incorporates delectable food samplings prepared by local chefs sprinkled with historical and horticultural tidbits, topped off with expert pairings from the Manitoba Liquor Marts.”
I’ve posted the excerpt for this section too, but PDFs of all the Leisure Guide sections are available at http://www.winnipeg.ca/cms/recreation/leisureguide.stm

Too Many Cooks by Anthony Falbo
Too much wine, limited ingredients, one dull knife and too many cooks in the kitchen.
A recipe for disaster?
Think again. It was a riotous night that led to the best vegetarian quesadillas I’ve ever had.
Of course they were the only vegetarian quesadillas I’ve ever had, but they were darn good quesadillas at that!
