I had been doing so well the past few weeks with sharing 2-3 recipes in each post. But unfortunately today, I only have one recipe to share with you all. It’s just been one of those weeks where I’ve been having lots of lazy meals or takeout. However, let’s not take away from the one…

PB & Fruit Smoothie
I’ve been eating quite a lot of berries recently, specifically blueberries. They’re just so good – taste-wise and nutritionally – and they’ve been on sale recently so I like to always have them on hand. A few weeks ago, I posted the incredible Blueberry Cheesecake French Toast and today I’m back with another blueberry recipe!…
Classic Margarita
Don’t you love National Food Days? It’s just a great excuse to drink/eat something because you can say you’re celebrating. The holiday I’m celebrating today is Tequila Day. It is actually tomorrow (July 24) but I am bringing the party a day early. One of the best uses of tequila is to make a classic…
Bubble Tea (Attempt #2)
A little while back, I attempted to make my own bubble tea. The milk tea portion was obviously delicious but the actual tapioca pearls were another story. They weren’t horrible but they just were not the texture they are supposed to be and the dough was not fully cooperating. I still had leftover tapioca starch…
Summer Berry Smoothie
I LOVE summer drinks. When you’re sitting outside, it’s so nice to have a cold drink in hand. There are many directions you can go, and smoothies are definitely one of the healthier ones. Smoothies are perfect for any day and you can pack them with any combination of your favourite fruits (or even some…
Passion Tea Lemonade
A hot summer calls for ice cold drinks! It’s important to stay hydrated so why not do that with a delicious iced tea lemonade. This would be great to make a big batch and serve to guests – simply multiply recipe measurements accordingly. Both items are good on their own but I love the combination…
Irish Cream Iced Espresso
Happy St Patty’s Day everyone! Today is the day to celebrate the Irish and eat green foods and drink green beer. I wanted to commemorate the occasion with a special drink. At first I thought of making Irish coffee, which is coffee with whisky, but I wasn’t feeling like having something so bold. So, I…
Homemade Bubble Tea
You may know I like to experiment in the kitchen. It’s fun to make things for the first time. Most recently, I made that stunning crepe cake for my dad’s birthday (check that out here). That turned out so well, I wanted to see what else I could make. Over the past few years, I’ve…
Pumpkin Spice Latte
Hello hello and welcome to week 2 (of 2) of fall themed recipes on my blog! This week, my special ingredient is PUMPKIN which I think is the food most associated with the season. You already know how much I love squash but pumpkin sort of hits differently. It’s so creamy and sweet but a…
Chocolate & Peanut Butter Smoothie
Let me just start by saying I was never a huge smoothie drinker. I don’t know why, but I never really made myself smoothies nor did I really ever have the desire to do so. However, since making the cinnamon-almond green smoothie from the Love Real Food cookbook (link here), I’ve been on a smoothie…
