Dairy-free Butter Chicken

Dairy-free Butter Chicken

I ate this for breakfast yesterday morning, had it again for lunch… and can just about guarantee that I’ll be enjoying it again today. It’s just that good. Now I know what you’re thinking, ‘dairy-free butter chicken? It has to taste off.’ It doesn’t. I had my fair share of authentic butter chicken while I…

Citrus Salsa with Salmon and Bok Choy

The weather’s been strange here. Wait, let me rephrase that… I’m not used to living in a snow-free city in November. The sun is shining, I find myself wearing light jackets, sweaters and I even got away with wearing shorts on Monday. Shorts in November… that’s madness! As a result, today’s cleanse recipe has bright…

Creamy Chicken Risotto

3 entrees in one week? I don’t think this has ever happened on the blog. I’m the girl that enjoys pancakes for dinner, gluten-free cupcakes in the afternoon, and chowing down on homemade granola… not gushing over a rib-sticking, comforting meal. Hypothetically if my sweet tooth were to never return, I think it’s fair to…

Paleo Beef Kebabs with Chunky Tzatziki

Boy, it was tough to get up this morning! I stayed up far too late watching movies and chatting with Kevin on Skype. My routine always gets a bit mixed up when Kevin’s in the UK for work. Falling asleep on the couch in the early evening, waking up to chat at 11pm, and sleeping…

Chicken Waldorf Salad

I enjoy my fair share of chicken, fish, and wild game meats, but you’d never know it from the recipes that I share here on the blog. Although I’d love to document my meat eating action and share with you the balance I maintain between plant and animal based proteins, I’m sad to admit that…

15 minute Maple Pepper Salmon Cakes

I have this thing for salmon. Craving? Mild obsession? I don’t know. Whatever it is, it’s strongest at work and will last all morning until I give in, ditch my lunch kit, and head to Joey’s Barlow to enjoy a $19.99 salmon fillet. I’m not the type to forgo an opportunity to enjoy a homemade…

Spring Leek and Lemon Chicken Patties with Steamed Veggie Salad

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…

“Breaded” Chicken Strips with Apricot Dijon Dipping Sauce

Let’s just pretend for a moment that you’re not sensitive to gluten, that deep fried chicken is nutritious, and that KFC isn’t bad for your health. Close your eyes and try to remember the last time you feasted on KFC breaded chicken complete with it’s secret blend of spices and golden, crispy skin. Now open…

Dijon Herb Salmon Salad + Behind the Lens

Dijon Herb Salmon Salad + Behind the Lens

I’ve been collecting ideas for recipes for as long as I can remember. Since elementary school, I’ve had recipes scribbled down in my math workbook, tucked away in my safe keeping box, scattered throughout the drawers of my desk on little pieces of scrap paper, and most recently, organized in my outlook folder. With the…

Flavour Fiesta: Tandoori Salmon with Spinach, Cucumber and Pickled Onions

Flavour Fiesta: Tandoori Salmon with Spinach, Cucumber and Pickled Onions

I love to surround myself with strong and confident individuals who have found their passion, trust their instincts, and believe in themselves. I guess it just helps me stay positive and stay on track? When I came across Divya and Flavour Fiesta, it was inspiration at first site. I knew I just had to reach…
