This light and delicious Strawberry Arugula Salad is the perfect way to celebrate spring. Fresh strawberries and arugula are brought to life with a rich balsamic dressing, feta, red onion, and roasted sunflower seeds. This spring salad recipe is best enjoyed in late spring when …
This is my favourite quick and healthy side dish when I’m making Mexican food and need to get some veggies on the table. My Mexican Corn and Black Bean Salad is great as a side dish, in a steak taco, or as leftovers eaten straight out of the fridge. It’s an all-purpose, delicious and robust salad that’s perfect in those hot summer months (or even in the dead of winter – it’s so delicious!).
This is a recipe I truly only make in the summer. There’s just something extra special about cooking Mexican rice with veggies entirely from your garden. Their own incredible flavours shine here, and the tomato, cilantro, jalapeno addition gives it just enough kick to make it pair incredibly with tacos, enchiladas and more!
Kale caesar salad is the perfect combination of healthy ingredients (kale) with rich and creamy caesar salad dressing. Topped with toasted breadcrumbs, the crunchy crushed “croutons” add crunch to every bite. Together they form this perfect combination that tastes way too delicious to be good for you!
This quick and delicious garlic scape arrabbiata uses the scape from hardneck garlic that is harvested in late May-mid June. The delicate garlic flavours hold up well to the 15 minute simmer with the grape tomatoes and the result is a rich yet delicately flavoured pasta sauce that will have you sneaking back for seconds! A touch of spice is added from the calabrian chili peppers and fresh thyme to round out all the flavours.
This Shrimp Pesto Pasta recipe is one of those meals I forget exists because it’s almost too easy. In under 20 minutes you can have a delicious, impressive pasta dish on the table. It’s even tasty cold as a pasta salad! Using store-bought or previously made homemade pesto makes this recipe a breeze.
Bits of butter incorporated into these cheddar and chive biscuits make these an ultra flaky treat. Delicious accompaniment to soups/stews or as a quick snack. For the first time in my life I have chives! Last year I planted chives in the garden and this …
Air fryer pita pizza is by far the easiest way to make a quick pizza at home. Using pre-made “crust” and using the air fryer to melt and brown the cheese makes this an easy <10 minute meal
