I moved to New Westminster this past weekend and I now live 5 minutes away from one of my closest friends, which means she’s going to be at my house more often. It’s great news because I love having someone to cook for. Last night she popped over with a bottle of cold white wine and very kindly made sure my glass didn’t run empty … Continue reading Mango Noodle Salad
This is actually the chili that my mom taught me to make. She grabbed the original recipe from Trader Joe’s, which is one of my favourite stores. I think the original way to make it was just beans, tomatoes and the chorizo, but we add a few extra ingredients. So I’m not sure if I should give the credit to TJ’s or my mom? Thanks … Continue reading Chorizo Chili (Vegan)
Nope, I didn’t hurt myself. I was Dwight Schrute-ing it last night. If you don’t know what that means you should go look up who Dwight Schrute is, I bascially looked like this last night: Meaning that like Dwight, I wouldn’t be allowed in any fancy stores for safety concerns. “I’m a beet farmer, you idiot!” I’m actually not a beet farmer though. But I do like beets, and I … Continue reading Tahini Harvest Bowl

We always have such a blast in the kitchen together. He … Continue reading Quick Vegan Pea Soup
Happy Friday! It’s been a long week, hasn’t it? If you’re one of my parents lucky dinner guests this weekend then you get to look forward to a massive lasagne dinner tomorrow night. Among the classics will be one that I made with this vegan red pasta sauce, which in my opinion, is delightful. I’m not a big meat eater in my day to day, … Continue reading Vegan Red Pasta Sauce
I don’t have a lot to say about this dish except that it was friggen delicious, but I’m gonna write a long ass post about it anyways because I LOVE talking about cooking. I’m not sure if it was mashed potatoes that I loaded with Boursin Cheese and butter (the BEST way to season mashed potatoes in my opinion) that made it better, because that’s … Continue reading Chicken Provencal
My favourite Thai place doesn’t deliver anymore, and even when they did, there was a $35 minimum, which is a lot when it’s only you and your wine, but I really only ate the curry anyways and it turns out it’s super easy to make! Also when I make it at home, I don’t have to pay extra for rice (what a rip off, eh!) … Continue reading Thai Peanut Curry (Vegan)
