It’s hot outside. Some days have even hit 104F (I know I’m Canadian, but Fahrenheit is more dramatic in the summer). When it’s hot I lose all interest in things like hot stoves, kitchens and well really.. I don’t feel like eating. I exist on smoothies and salad. There are really only so … Continue reading

Mediterranean Medley (Easy Pasta Sauce)
My parents have been married for 26 years as of a week ago. I know, it’s impressive. Even more impressive is that everyone in my family (with the exception of my father) has to eat a restricted diet! I know I just used an exclamation mark. I am fully aware that it endows my … Continue reading
10 Minute Taco Shells – Vegan – Paleo – Gluten free
I’ve been told I’m intimidating. Like the food I love I tend to flavor my words, my actions and my beliefs with a little extra cayenne. There is no such thing as going half-way with my food journey or anything. Ever. This means I can be terrible at saying no. When … Continue reading
Vegan Alfredo with Chardonnay Reduction
I have a knack for getting recipes right the first time. That isn’t me showing off (okay, it is ninety percent me showing off), it is more the reason I can’t draw very well. Confused yet? Wonderful! Let me explain.. When I was an innocent naive freshman in University (all … Continue reading

Have I ever told you how much I love mangoes? My body is still detoxing, I’m in the midst of a transition to a more permanent location for my life, I’m working full time, volunteering a few hours each week — basically I’m insane. So what I do I do when I live in … Continue reading

Spring Refresher Green Smoothie
I’m eating a salad right now. I have to write this post really fast because we’re having a surprise farewell party for my sister tonight and I need to help set things up. But also, I need to write a food post. Dedication. It’s what I do. Since going vegan I’ve been playing a … Continue reading
Sweet n’ Sour Vegan Stir-fry
So I bought a julienne peeler. I bet you can’t tell. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, I pity you. Really, I do. Ever since I acquired this piece of culinary equipment magic I’ve become obsessed. Are you really too lazy to open a new browser window and google “julienne … Continue reading
Crazy Vegan Lasagne
Okay. You’re probably wondering why this lasagne is crazy. Blame my cousin. I have a really cool, hip, stylish and fantastic cousin that is currently living in Brazil. And anyway, he will probably laugh hysterically at this next statement, but whatever. He’s a jerk. So. Drumroll. I’m a vegan guys. I know, … Continue reading
Mean Green Hemp Blueberry Pancakes with Banana Matcha Nice-Cream
Everything I am wearing is green except my socks. I don’t own green socks. I understand your disappointment in me, I’ll try to make it up to you with a really cool recipe or something. I don’t know. I’m really not that great at cooking. (Please tell me you read that as sarcasm, please. I’m … Continue reading
