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...
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...
I love vegetables. Always have. When I was little, I watched commercials with kids hating brussels sprouts and broccoli unless they were covered in cheese sauce and it was super weird to me. My sister and I would fight over the last mushroom or baby corn in our stir...
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...
Weekend brunch is so over-rated. The line ups alone are enough to kill me. Seriously, I cannot even bear it. I see it all the time - huge lines outside popular brunch spots, folks just waiting around, probably hangry, to get a table. I've been guilty of the same...

This endless winter, I've been craving soup, stews, and hearty foods. Craving a salad during a windchill factor forecast? Uhh, not so much. However, I've been looking to lighten up my calories, boost my nutrient intake, and still feel satisfied and this salad seemed...
Do you bring a bagged lunch or do you buy? With my dietary restrictions, I almost always bring my lunch. If I'm not prepared, I'll end up buying ginger ale and a bag chips or popcorn for lunch at the convenient store in my office. Not ideal. In the summer,...
Poor brussels sprouts - they've always had such a bad rap. It's too bad because they're actually delicious, even candy-like when roasted in a touch of maple syrup. This recipe is my new go-to side for Thanksgiving and Christmas meals. It's the perfect side to meaty...
Hearty, belly-warming, satisfying soup. That's what I've been craving ever since the weather started to get chilly. When fall comes, I naturally move away from cold salads and try to get my fill of veggies with soups instead. The colder weather and dark nights...
