Last week was so cold and miserable where I live, but this week has been a whole different story. The temperature is milder, had lots of sunny days and it just puts me in a better mood. So I think the recipes I made this week are brighter and fresher in nature, which goes well…

January 13: Gnocchi & Pasta
This week was not the biggest cooking week but it was a very carb full week. I have two dinners from this week and they were very delicious but also very simple weeknight meals. – Gnocchi with Rose Sauce: I used packaged potato gnocchi for this, boiled it like normal and then mixed it with…
January 6: Banana Bread, Peanut Noodles & Meatless Tacos
Happy new year everyone! I hope 2023 has been off to a good start! I’ve gotten back in the kitchen and back on track with healthier eating – we all know how overindulgent we can be during the holidays… This was a good cooking week for me and these were all such delicious recipes! –…
December 9: Toasts & Pancakes
Wow I can’t believe it’s already the second week of December!! I’ve been working so hard on my cookie business (Lindsay Bakes) that I haven’t been cooking too much recently. The meals I’m sharing today were simple but still very delicious! They are also quite straightforward so I didn’t have too much to say about…
Weekly Roundup: Muffins & Barley Soup
Hello everyone, hope your Fall is off to a great start. The weather where I live has dropped significantly in the past couple of days so all I want to do is curl up on the couch in comfy clothes. It’s also just been a busy week for me between work and life, so my…
Orangesicle Bars
Okay, I love creamsicles so I was very excited to make this dessert. The crust is an oat base, like an oatmeal cookie and the filling is an orange-coconut mixture. Classic creamsicles are not made with coconut so I was a little weary there. Let’s dive in, starting with the crust. It’s made with oats,…
Mezcal Meltdown
I finished last week with a drink and we are starting now with a drink too! This is actually the first cocktail I’m making from this cookbook. The drink is called a Mezcal Meltdown. It has pineapple juice, lime juice and jalapeno so it’s a mix of sweet, sour and spicy. From the name, the…
Strawberry Rosewater Cheesecake
Mmm cheesecake. It’s one of my favourite desserts. But as we know, the Brave New Meal cookbook is a vegan one which means this cheesecake is not made with cream cheese. This is made with cashews! When soaked (and blended), cashews give such a nice creaminess to whatever you use them in – which was…
Zucchini Blossom Pasta
My last post was a super summery tomato tart (check it out) and today’s recipe is another perfect summer dish. This was zucchini (blossom) pasta which was a great weeknight meal. I put blossom in brackets before because the recipe is supposed to have them, but unfortunately, I had to make do without them. Apparently,…
Jackfruit Pupusas
I have made it to the third and final jackfruit recipe in the Brave New Meal cookbook. If you missed the others, they were Pomegranate Cola Jackfruit and Teriyaki Jackfruit. Pupusas are a dish traditionally from El Salvador and Honduras. The filling is usually bean or meat-based and it’s inside a corn masa dough and…
