So it's been a while since I posted a recipe and it's basically because I started a newish gig that involves some travel and lots of catered lunches. All I can say is that I'm loving the job and maybe a little too much as some of my pants have gotten a wee bit snug...
I have a new addition to my home - something I've wanted and dreamed about for a long time. Yup, I got a VitaMix. It is AWESOME and I LOVE it. Like LOVE LOVE it. I was gifted this amazing piece of equipment by my generous parents for Christmas (thanks mom and...
Happy New Year! I hope you all had a lovely and restful holiday season and most of all, a healthy one. I had a nice stay-cation full of food, chocolate, and other goodies and spent lots of quality time with my family. It was all fun and wonderful until my sister...
How often do you try something new? Like new new? We all get stuck in our day to day routines and dare I say, ruts. I'm guilty of just grabbing the same-ish groceries week after week and making my same go-to meals or going out to dinner at my usual spots and ordering...

A beautiful red and white salad perfect for celebrating Canada Day. It's super fast - just cut up some watermelon, slice some red onions, and chop parsley. Crumble some Greek feta cheese over top and drizzle with a little balsamic vinegar. It's refreshing and the...
I have a food-fession: I am obsessed with nachos. I spent almost an hour stuck in traffic today talking about food with my carpool and I would say a good chunk of it was about our mutual adoration of nachos. We discussed different kinds of nachos, how to make the...
Let's talk about soup baby, let's talk about you and me. Let's talk about all the good things and the bad things that may be (insert these 90s dance moves from Salt'n Peppa). Okay, you probably know by now that I love soup but not all soups are good for you. Many of...
I like happy things. This salad is a happy salad - it's colourful, full of unexpected flavour, nutritious, and fast. What's not to love? It's bright and cheerful, just like my pal Jerrica who introduced me to this salad (and yes she is named after this gal). Beets are...
