Ratatouille (vegan)

Will it skillet? Oh heck yes it will. I love how easy the cast iron pan goes from stove to oven, making this veggie packed, vegan friendly dish super easy and literally one pot. You know it’s an easy recipe because let’s be honest – you know I’m all about easy! I loved the movie Ratatouille, it’s a super cute movie if you haven’t seen … Continue reading Ratatouille (vegan)

Curried Sweet Potato Fries & Cucumber Raita

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

Vegetable Broth

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

Citrusy Curry Tofu (Vegan)

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)

Vegan Cottage Pie

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

Eggplant Banh Mi (Vegan)

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)

Chai Vanilla Bean Shortbread

You may have noticed from other recipes that I love chai tea. Chai lattes, plain chai, chai cake, chai panna cotta, chai body scrub, chai ice cream, it’s all wonderful. The warm, toasty, comforting spices – cinnamon, cloves, ginger, cardamom, and coriander – makes a cozy blend that’s perfect for winter. And since I’m a huge fan of chai, I obviously needed to put it … Continue reading Chai Vanilla Bean Shortbread

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
