Ultra-Easy Vegan Taco Salad
I went through this crazy taco salad phase a couple of months ago, right around my 27th birthday. No matter what I prepared for dinner, what marvelous things I baked for the blog, or the fabulous meals we enjoyed at restaurants, all I felt like eating was taco salad.
Pineapple Curry Coleslaw + Overcoming Fears
Trying something new can be scary, overwhelming and downright mortifying. Unfamiliarity makes our wildly active and fertile imaginations run rampant. The what-ifs start piling up and, before we know it, we have a mental list a mile long of why we can’t move forward with something.
Watermelon Smoothie Cooler
Do you find yourself drudging through your work day? Maybe the 2pm energy crash is a bit too familiar? My favorite way to boost my spirits in the mid-afternoon is to sit out in the sun, for 10 minutes or so, and sip on a healthy, refreshing drink. AND I have just the refreshingly light…
Corn-free Tortilla Chips and Summer Salsa
The tortilla chip is a marvelous thing. It’s salty, crunchy, textured, and goes well with just about anything. If you’re not down with corn, or you’re looking for a light summertime snack, the classic tortilla chip just doesn’t fit the bill.
Vanilla Nut Hemp Milk
Oh jeez, Calgary is rocking my world right now. I’m happy. I’m smiling. I’m all lit up. I attended my sister’s convocation (the scientific cookie of the family!), spent Papa’s day with my Dad, girls night with Mom… it’s been nourishing.
My new Omega 8006 Juicer
I am overly impressed with my new Omega 8006 Juicer. The feed chute on the 8006 is fairly small, so produce needs to be cut up into tiny small pieces. The prep work required to make a juice is longer than with my previous Breville juicer, but the juice that comes out of this beast…
Summer Mayo-free Potato Salad
Here in Canada, our long weekend was this past weekend. There were barbecues lit up everywhere, the smell of charcoal at every turn, and; because 3 days off warrants a visit from a special friend, Angela made the trek to Montreal to join in the long weekend festivities. We grilled to our hearts content, watched…
Chocolate Muffins (gluten-free + grain-free)
Kevin’s Mom, Renee, was here visiting for a 2 week stint before she made her way to Germany to visit Kevin’s sister. During Renee’s time here, we got to celebrate her birthday. Instead of getting her a gift that she’d have to lug around with her on her trip, Kevin and I made a batch…
15 Minute Dinner: Crunchy Sole
The weather is warming up and my work load is getting larger and larger. Things are very busy, but ultra wonderful. I’m working on loads of new Summer recipe concepts for the blog and my meal planning program, we’ve got some (very exciting!) new sponsors joining us in the next couple of months, and Kevin…
Birthday Girl Oil-free Raspberry Dressing
A new year has begun! It’s my birthday today which makes it a perfect time to look back on all the things I’ve accomplished in the last 12 months. I’m ready to close this chapter and set my sights on what I’d like to see unfold in my 27th year. In the last 12 months…
