The grocery store has got me all confuzzled. When I went to develop this recipe and play around with it the other night, I bought what I believed was a sweet potato. I got it home, started peeling it, and there it was. White flesh. Excuse me, sir? I mean they still tasted really good. It tasted like…well…sweet potato. I was incredibly confused and a … Continue reading Curried Sweet Potato Fries & Cucumber Raita
It’s soup season! I gifted myself a new dutch oven just in time for the cold/snowy hit we’re getting here in Vancouver! It was a pain to bring home on the train with me, but I couldn’t wait to use it! With soup season, having stock or broth on hand is a necessity. There is actually a difference between stock or broth that I believe … Continue reading Vegetable Broth
One of the things I love about going to Maui is the familiarity and feeling of home. I’ve been spoiled and have grown up travelling there…a lot (thank you gramma and gramps for smart investing!) and we have our own routine…or traditions when we’re there. One of our traditions is our Maui breakfast. Fresh fruit, cottage cheese, toast and maybeee a mimosa or two. Buttttt … Continue reading Citrusy Curry Tofu (Vegan)
I spent last week in snowy Kelowna with my family, and it was perfect! As per norm, it was full of snowboarding, games, wine, martinis and delicious, comforting vegan food (and a few bites of cheese 😉 ). One of my favourite parts about our Kelowna trips is spending time in the kitchen with Gord and making awesome vegan food with him (see, you got … Continue reading Vegan Cottage Pie
TODAY ON WILL IT SKILLET? – EGGPLANT BANH MI’S. Yes, I used my cast iron to cook the eggplant for these Banh Mi’s…because why wouldn’t I? The cast iron gives it a nice, crisp, brown edge but you can obviously use whatever pan you have. Orrr even better if you have a grill it would be amazing grilled! Now I’m not totally confident what kind … Continue reading Eggplant Banh Mi (Vegan)
Since I bought that cast iron skillet, my kitchen time has felt like I’m making episodes of”WILL IT SKILLET?” So we’re gonna roll with that! Spoiler alert the answer will probably always be yes! We already know that a Dutch Baby will Skillet! Today on…WILL IT SKILLET? Mac n Cheese! Last week I had really fantastic Mac n Cheese at this really cute comfort food … Continue reading Mac n Cheese
I love when I can combine my two favourite things – cheese and bread. As you may remember from my Brie in Pastry recipe, I absolutely love baked brie. There’s something about the ooey-gooeyness of it that honestly just makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. This though, this is the ULTIMATE baked brie. It’s baked inside bread. INSIDE A LOAF OF BREAD, GUYS. It’s … Continue reading Brie Bread Bowl
Does anyone else try and clean their fridge out at the end of the week, or is that just me? I don’t know what it is, but I love starting the week with a clean slate fridge. I often find myself at the end of the week throwing together meals with tidbits of leftover food, which is the tastiest kind of upcycling you can do. … Continue reading Balsamic Roasted Mushrooms
In general, I’m not really into eggs with the “egg”ception of a fried egg once in a while on holiday’s, or a benny…but sometimes I do just get a really harsh craving for egg. I do like those little mini quiche – you know the ones in pie crust? I think maybe I just love pie crust. After a long weekend away, I didn’t want … Continue reading Crustless Veggie Quiche

I’m sure none of you actually care about that though because you’re here for one reason and one reason only – these wicked … Continue reading Buffalo Cauliflower Tacos & Avocado Crema (Vegan)
