it all started with a love for food
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Fresh tomatoes and herbs are in abundance and their flavour is at their peak. This easy & authentic pomodoro sauce will blow you away with how incredible it tastes with only 5 ingredients. Even better, this can be made with canned tomatoes (ideally with the best quality you can find – including home canned).
These high-protein turkey breakfast patties are the thing that actually gets me out the door when I’m trying to hit my protein goals but don’t have twenty minutes to stand at the stove. One patty has 10 grams of protein on its own, and once you build the full breakfast sandwich (patty, egg, English muffin, an ounce of cheese) you’re at 31 grams of protein for around 360 calories.
Cilantro lime rice is the most versatile (and popular!) rice to serve in burritos and burrito bowls. It’s easy to make and bursting with flavour from the fresh cilantro and lime juice.
Is there anything better than a meal that comes together quickly and tastes incredible? Beef Kofta is made with simple ingredients like onion, garlic, parsley, and some middle-eastern spices and it boasts a ton of flavour.
This delicious lemon herb rice pilaf is difficult to stop eating! It’s my favourite base for a Greek souvlaki bowl or as a delicious side to any Mediterranean meal.
Taco salad bowls are the perfect weeknight dinner. Extra-lean ground beef, avocado crema, and customizable additions for every palate.
When I’m feeling under the weather (or feel like I need some fibre), I often make this lentil vegetable soup. This healthy soup is lightly spiced with a curry blend, along with fresh garlic, onion, carrot, celery, parsnip, potatoes, and rich chicken broth (or veggie).
This homemade buttermilk ranch recipe is exactly what we’ve been looking for in a ranch. It’s lightly tangy, bursting full of fresh herb flavour, and tastes exceptional on pizza and veggies.
Traditionally made by slow-cooking pork in lard, this authentic(ish) recipe uses pork, oranges, limes, and other aromatics and slow cooks them to perfection before crisping them up under the broiler. This recipe has been on my regular rotations for years. It never fails to produce ultra tender, flavourful meat.
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!).
