Okay. This is one of my favourite brunch recipes ever. Ever. Around here we’re obsessed with all things sweet, smokey, and spicy. I’m also a little obsessed with waffles….but these waffles…they hold the best combo of flavours. This recipe came together on Sunday after a trip to the gym–time for well-deserved waffles! We only wished [...]Continue reading →
I’m reading Wheat Belly right now, and I have to admit, it’s a little hard to eat wheat at the moment. That’s fine with me, and just gives me one more excuse to challenge myself with gltuen-free takes on lots of recipes. Today, doughnuts! These doughnuts don’t leave you wanting anything else, or realizing they’re [...]Continue reading →
Happy Easter! Whether you celebrate or not, this is a good weekend to embrace chocolate. These are super, SUPER flavourful, and made of simple, healthy ingredients. They are a splurge in terms of price, but well worth it. Raspberry and pistachio is a dynamite combination. Salty, sweet, and a little tangy, all enrobed in dark [...]Continue reading →
Happy Passover/soon to be Easter…or just plain old long weekend coming up! Today I’m featured with a recipe at www.foodiepages.com, with these delicious macaroons. Perfect for passover…or anyone going gluten/grain-free. You can see the recipe here. Coming up next time: raspberry pistachio chocolate cups. YES. That is all I have to say. Also, I made [...]Continue reading →

When I started reading a lot of Michael Pollan just before I began studying nutrition, I thought veganism might be on the horizon, but the more I learned, the more eating well for me because about moderation and quality meat/animal products. Being an (almost-1 [...]Continue reading →
This is a hearty loaf that you can take with you on the run. It’s delicious, satisfying, and guilt-free! It also packs a superfood punch, with lots of vitamin rich citrus zest, ginger, chia and quinoa. It’s gluten-free, and even grain-free. It’s dense, filling, and based off a pound cake recipe from the Vitamix cookbook…but [...]Continue reading →
If you don’t like things that are too sugary sweet, then these are for you. If you like dark chocolate and coffee, you will love these. I’d never made maracons before…and though they always look extremely pretty, they’re a little too sweet for me. Until now. These are super crunchy and delicious! Just don’t have [...]Continue reading →
I love pancakes. If I had to choose, a favorite food, despite my recent waffle addiction, pancakes might be it. But don’t make me choose flavours. There are just too many. If you didn’t have pancakes this morning, here’s hoping you get pancakes for dinner! Here are some of my favourites. And, they’re all shockingly [...]Continue reading →
It’s been a crazy busy week for me here, finishing 2 courses and running my brownie business, so I asked my good friend Caitlin (who also happens to be a Culinary Nutritionist and a Holistic Nutritionist) to do a guest post. She write a blog called Healthy Bites by Caitlin. After you read this, you [...]Continue reading →

I’ve seen some awesome looking sandwich cookies around the blog world lately, and wanted to take a crack at my own version. I haven’t been one [...]
