Anyone that knows me, knows I love salads - I once even had a blog that was solely dedicated to salads, I just wasn't that great at updating it at the time. I also love burgers, pizza and other delicious fatty foods; but salads are my jam. I'm one of those people who believe that … Continue reading Refreshing winter slaw
It's been forever since I posted, sorry. I will try as of now to get back into my routine and post about once a week because I have so many things I want to share. For now I'm going to share my recipe for roasted butternut squash soup. This recipe is very basic, I let … Continue reading Roasted butternut squash soup (Vitamix)
Ok, so I'm not vegan, I'm not even vegetarian. I'm just more conscious of things now then I was before. So we try to eat vegetarian in our house at least 3 times a week, eat more fish and less red meat, pork and poultry. So far, I find that part to be pretty easy. … Continue reading Vegan almond salted caramels
Summer time is for sunshine and frozen treats. At least that’s one of the things I remember from when I was a kid. It seemed when school ended my parents were a little more lenient when it came to treats. Freezies, popsicles and ice cream became stables in our summer diet. Don’t worry, we counteracted … Continue reading Pineapple, coconut & mint popsicles
As we try to eat more vegetarian in our home, I'm experimenting more and more; and so far it's been turning out pretty great! We eat zucchini noodles quite often and I have come to really enjoy them, which is a little shocking because I used to really dislike zucchini. I always thought of it … Continue reading Ratatouille style pasta
I have to admit, I am not a scone fan. I'm not really a pastry fan period, but scones I especially don't like. I always find whenever I get them, they're hard and kind of flavorless and I have to chew the tiniest piece for what feels like hours to get through it. Just not … Continue reading Blueberry vanilla scones
Summer time always has me feeling salads. I'm not big on spending a ton of time in the kitchen when it's toasty outside, so quick, fresh and easy ingredients are my jam. I like corn, corn on the cob mostly, but I do like corn. I don't eat it all that often as I find … Continue reading Corn and feta salad with fresh lime
Well I think by now you know that I love watermelon. I'm pretty sure I always did. It was a treat for us in the summer to be able to munch on slices of watermelon all day long in the sunshine. It's still one of my favourite memories from staying at my grandparents. We were … Continue reading Watermelon and feta salad with dried cranberries and toasted pumpkin seeds
Cauliflower has been a relatively new ingredient in our home. I've always really enjoyed it, I just wasn't totally sure what to do with it. As kids it was always boiled and garnished with butter, salt and pepper, or if we were really lucky - some kind of cheesy (probably Velveeta) sauce. Otherwise it was … Continue reading BBQ cauliflower with a sweet sumac sauce
