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...
So it's officially Fall now and that means squash soup season and this Thai version is beautifully creamy and super flavourful. I brought this to work for lunch and the steamy aroma of lemongrass, lime, and shallots wafted around my cubicle and down the hall. I was...
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...
Brrr... it's cold in here. There must be a polar vortex in the atmosphere. (Insert foot-stomping and clapping a la Bring it On cheerleaders). Seriously. What is up with this weather? I don't know about you but all I'm craving is soup, comfort food, cheese, and more...
I wish I could say I was a more disciplined party-goer. You know, the ones who say 'No thanks, I've had my quota of two fried thingies already. I'll just drink water and eat carrot sticks now.' Instead, I'm the one who's helping to refill the chip bowl I just...

As much as I love fall, with the changing leaves and fabulous fashion options, it's also flu and cold season for many. People at work seem to be dropping like flies, myself included. Times like this call for congee - a soupy savoury Chinese rice...
Southern comfort food gets reimagined and de-glutenized in this sandwich in waffle form - crispy, cheesy, savoury, and full of big flavours. I've made two versions here - one vegetarian and with spicy turkey sausage. Either way, these waffles are perfect for...
Classics. Perfect anytime, anywhere, and never go out of style. Here's a healthy update to the classic tuna salad sandwich. Bye bye mayo. Hello avocado. This version is full of protein and good fats, is heart healthy, and loaded with lots of flavour. I've named...
Sweet, salty, gooey, and crunchy. This flatbread has a combination of ingredients that are delicious on their own, but when combined, are pure heaven. This recipe is an adaptation of a popular menu item from a little brunch place in Little Italy/Portugal in Toronto...
