it all started with a love for food
Caesar salad is my favourite “fancy” salad I like to make when I have company. It’s simple to make and prep ahead, tossing just before sitting down to eat. It’s fantastic on romaine or kale and great in a chicken Caesar wrap.
There’s this restaurant near me that makes the most amazing sweet chili seitan bowl. I’m obsessed with it so I had to find a way to enjoy it at home too! With crispy tofu, homemade sweet chili sauce, creamy coconut rice, and topped with some delicious crispy wonton strips.
Homemade sweet chili sauce has a ton more flavour and you can control the spice level and sweetness according to your taste. Even better? Trying buying Thai chiles and making your own chili paste for the ultimate sweet chili sauce.
Whip up a quick meal with Thai peanut noodles with tofu. Rich, creamy, and loaded with veggies for a healthy dinner option.
My dad put this chili recipe in one of my school cookbooks they sold each year. My dad always used beef and pork, but I’ve used a ton of different meats to great success. My favourite spin on it is elk and adding a habanero pepper for heat. This chili is popular everywhere it goes.
These naturally vegan spring rolls pack tons of flavour and they’re wrapped in a tiny crunchy package. What’s not to love? This recipe was inspired by Edna, who always made the best homemade spring rolls.
This vegan pie crust is flaky, dairy-free, AND sugar-free! The little pop of flavour comes from the vinegar in the dough and the flecks of vegan butter incorporated into the flour. I won’t give you some long winded story on how I got to this …
This flavourful Mexican pozole verde is made simple with shredded rotisserie chicken, canned salsa verde, beans, and hominy. The intense flavours brought out by the simple ingredients make this an easy weeknight recipe to whip up on short notice.
This soup tastes like fall. It’s warm, hearty, and a little bit spicy. This soup is ultimate comfort while also being incredibly good for you! It’s high in protein, fiber, and lots of nutrients and low in fat! Simple ingredients and simply delicious.
We always ordered Mango Curry at this Indian restaurant called The Mango Tree. This mango curry is creamy, a little sweet, and a whole lot of flavour! It can be made as it is here or modified using any number of meat alternatives.
