Raspberry Linzer Cookies
I hope you enjoyed your weekend! The highlight of mine was meeting my sister at our parent’s house early yesterday morning to treat our Dad to a Father’s Day feast. I brought along a basket filled with ingredients for pancakes and sausage scramble, and Christina, my sister, brought her mad chopping skills. Boy can that…
Vegan “Tuna” Salad
Oh do I have a treat for you today! It’s not a fresh batch of gluten-free doughnuts, vegan cake, or a fun green smoothie, it’s tuna… vegan style. Before you go thinking that this recipe may be a bit too granola for you, I urge you to check out the ingredients list. Everything is easy…
5 Ingredient Vegan Rice Crispy Treats
The first time I enjoyed a rice crispy treat was at my girlfriend Jenna’s house. We’d just finished chowing down on a pot of KD; the staple in any 8 year old’s diet, when she offered to make us a dessert. The marshmallow mixture never made it to the pan. Instead, Jenna and I sat…
2 minute Mango Citrus Sorbet
My attempts at making vegan marshmallows this weekend turned out to be a total fail, but that didn’t stop us from having a great weekend! I’m enjoying Instagram more and more for capturing our adventures, so here goes! I picked up Kevin from the airport early Saturday morning that left me feeling like a zombie…
Onion Veggie Dip with Homemade Onion Soup Mix
Oh my goodness, I’m just waking up now instead of the 3 hours ago that I intended. Kevin flew in from Montreal last night and his flight was delayed to 12:08am. As much as I love seeing him at the airport and being there to welcome him home, waking up halfway through the night to…
Grain-free Banana Bread
The banana adventures continue, this time with classic banana bread… with a little twist. It’s grain-free, massively sugar-reduced and, if you ask me, better than the real thing. I still haven’t figured out how to make coconut flour recipes vegan. Every time I remove the eggs from the recipe, I’m left with a gooey mess…
Spring Leek and Lemon Chicken Patties with Steamed Veggie Salad
Earlier this year, we set a goal of eliminating most of the microwave cooking in our home. As a result, the stockpile of homemade frozen meals that got us through the workweek no longer held much significance. I could make the meal from scratch in the same time it took to defrost it in the…
Chocolate Banana Cake Bars (vegan + gluten-free)
I have a hard time walking away from a sale. I thought I’d learned my lesson from the 2011 canned pumpkin sale incident, but my freezer full of over-ripe bananas says otherwise. It’s just so challenging to say no to an over-ripe banana. They’re perfect for banana soft-serve, green smoothies, banana pops and can be…
Berry Cinnamon Breakfast Nachos
Just like this recipe, today’s post is simple and sweet! Instead of spending the weekend in the kitchen trying out a bunch of new recipes and prepping for the week ahead, I made 1 quick breakfast recipe, took a couple of pictures of it and lost myself in our garden all weekend long. But hey,…
Moroccan Carrot and Raisin Slaw
I’m the girl that dresses in shorts and a t-shirt on a day that it’s supposed to snow, packs more sweaters than t-shirts to India, and decides that taking sandals camping in the mountains is far better than packing socks. In each instance, had I just visited The Weather Network, I probably could have avoided…
