How often do you find yourself trying new foods? For me, this happened earlier this week with the Jicama-Corn Salsa. I had never tried jicama before and I really enjoyed it. And now, here I am again, with another new food. As you can see by the title, today’s new food was: OKRA. Okra is…

Lemon Coconut Cheesecake
I love cheesecake. It’s so creamy and rich and just the perfect dessert. I’ve made this specific recipe a couple times before, from the Just a Taste blog (link here). I made it originally as the bars and then I made them again, dipped them in chocolate which was incredible! Today’s cheesecake was lemon coconut…
Pickled Radish
Happy December everyone! Crazy that we are almost finished with 2021. It’s really feeling like winter here because it snowed quite a bit a few days ago. I love the snow, as long as I don’t have to go outside in it, so I guess it’s time to start my hibernation! Anyways, my post today…
Salmon Rice Paper Rolls
Remember back in the summer, there were those viral Rice Paper Dumplings that everyone was making on Tiktok. And then, a little while after that, came these salmon rice paper rolls which is what I made today. Yes I know, I am way behind in the trends but it’s alright. These have a similar result…
Cauliflower Alfredo
I love pasta alfredo. It usually isn’t the healthiest choice because the sauce classically contains a lot of heavy cream and butter. There are many healthier alternatives out there that are equally delicious. Two varieties that I have made are Cream Cheese Alfredo and Pasta Alfredo with Squash & Broccoli. Today I made a different…
Roasted Delicata Squash
I’m eating all the squash that I can before the season is over! Last week I made Quinoa Stuffed Squash and today I’m cooking with delicata squash! I love this squash because they are relatively small in size which makes them easy to cut through. Also, unlike some other squashes, you can actually eat the…
Mediterranean Baked Sweet Potatoes
Today’s recipe was these baked sweet potatoes with roasted chickpeas, garlic herb sauce and a fresh tomato-herb salad. The recipe is from Minimalist Baker (recipe here). It might sound like a lot of components, but everything worked so well together and it was a delicious meal. This is a great vegetarian/vegan meal with lots of…
Quinoa Stuffed Squash
We know that fall is squash season. There are so many ways to prepare squash – roasting, mashing, steaming. Depending on the type of squash, they are perfect for stuffing! Today, I have used acorn squash which is relatively small in size which makes it great for this recipe! This type of squash is also…
Chicken Lettuce Cups
Have you ever had lettuce cups? They’re a cute and fun way to hold delicious fillings. I first saw them made with a Chinese ground meat filling but you could use any variety of ingredients and flavours. One good option would be Mexican-inspired with taco seasoning and then tomato and avocado as garnish. My lettuce…
Squash & Vegetable Soup
You know how much I love soups. This is a really great vegetable soup that I made and had to share with you! There are so many vegetables – carrot, bell pepper, zucchini, butternut squash, corn – so it is quite the colourful soup. When there is such a variety of colours in a dish,…
