I am not a breakfast person, never have been. I like my coffee in the morning and that's about it. Problem is, it often gets to be 1 or 2 PM and I realize the only thing I've had is coffee; not a great way to start your day, especially when you're a breastfeeding mama. … Continue reading Tahini bliss balls
Happy Monday, hope you are all having an awesome start to your first week in December! Can you freakin believe it's December already? Seriously, where did the time go?

I don't know about you guys, but the weekends are my favourite time to cook - because I actually have time. I mean I always cook, often 3 meals a day and often every day of the week. But, what I love about weekends is that Clint wants to spend more time with Luna (as … Continue reading Sweet potato and black bean hash

I've never really been a big fan of cooked cherries, couldn't get into cherry pie, or cherry sauce - you know like the kind … Continue reading Cherry coconut oat bars
So I don't drink milk. Not because I'm vegan - I'm not. I just don't really like the taste of milk. Every once in a while I get a craving, have a huge swig and then I'm done for another 8 months or so. I do love most plant-based milks (my favourite of which is … Continue reading Strawberry Almond Milk
I think that May and June are two of my favourite months a year, when the weather is cooperating of course. I love that the air smells fresh, the sun is shining, and there are so many beautiful flowers blooming; like lilacs. I have a few lilac recipes that I've been meaning to nail down, … Continue reading Blackberry lilac chia pudding
Having a new baby and breastfeeding means I need to eat, like all the time. So I've been looking to create some easy healthy go to snack recipes to ensure I'm actually getting a few nutrients here and there instead of shoving whatever happens to be lingering in my pantry down my throat because I'm about … Continue reading Raw lemon coconut chia bars
With all those beautiful potatoes I've been getting in my YYC Growers Harvest Box, I've been perfecting my version of a Spanish potato tortilla. Something I've been playing around with for a while.
