Tangy Dill Dressing
I’ve gone into another pickle craze. It happens every couple of months and has proven to be extra awesome when you have an entire shelf of homemade pickles in your basement. Gosh, making my own pickles has to be one of the best ideas I’ve ever had. Adding pickles to salad dressing? Another fabulous idea….
Maple Turnip and Carrot Mash
My love for mashed potatoes goes deep. The day I moved out of my parents house at the tender age of 17, I was very happy to learn that potatoes were about the only thing I could afford. That and egg noodles, tomato juice and licorice from Walmart. Let’s just say there was a 3…
Grain-free Carrot Cupcakes with Dairy-free ‘Cream cheese’ Buttercream
Every couple of months there’s a recipe that; no matter how many times I try, just won’t work out. I have a really hard time giving up on things and have a very strong desire to reach for my dreams, no matter how ridiculous they may be. Who dreams of making the perfect grain-free cupcake?…
5 Ingredient Jam-packed Protein Cakes
One of my biggest frustrations over the past couple of months has been my inability to build muscle. I changed up my workouts, tried out new activities, nothing was helping. As part of my shifting and staying motivated project, I decided to take a long hard look at my diet to see if there were areas…
Gluten-free Multigrain Rosemary Crackers
I’m so late in sharing this recipe with you, but I can explain. It all started with a craving for buttery crackers about a month ago. Now, normally I’m really good at the whole recipe development process. I’ve lost many a written down recipe, and felt I had learned my lesson. But low and behold,…
365 Days of Healthful Pursuit… And A Bit Of Pumpkin Baked Oatmeal
Today marks the 1st blogiversary of Healthful Pursuit! The past 365 days have been filled with great food, inspiration, friendship, self care, triumph, frustration, and a whole lot a love. The craziest part? Healthful Pursuit was never intended to be a food blog. It began as a website for my private practice. I envisioned it…
Frozen “Boo”nana Pops (no sugar added)
It’s rare that I come across a recipe that I want to make SO badly that I literally run down to the kitchen to prepare it on the spot. The last time it happened was when I’d found Averie’s Blueberry Banana Oat Cakes. Just a couple of substitutions and it quickly morphed into what is…
Low Fat Vegan Maple Flax Cookies
Kevin and I decided to take it easy this past weekend. He’s been traveling so much for work that it was the first weekend in over 2 months that we’ve been able to just hang out. What relaxing activities did we do? We sat on the couch and caught up on our favorite shows! Many…
Chicken Noodle Meatloaf
Every Sunday afternoon my Dad made us two bowls of chicken noodle soup + a tall stack of saltines for the weekly afternoon golf show on CBC. We’d sit on the chesterfield; my feet barely hanging over the sides, with my soup on my lap and my crackers laid out on the cushion beside me….
Gingerbread Brownies
I’ve been dying to share this recipe with you for days and days and years! I exaggerate. It’s only been two days. I’m quite good at exaggerating though. My excuse? I’m a Taurus which naturally limits my ability to state the facts correctly. That, and my Mom was a pro at it too. It was…
