    At-Home Seafood Platter

    November 30, 2023 / No Comments

    Some of you may know that Fraser and I are ✨obsessed✨ with seafood platters. I think we may have tried every single one this city has to offer. So… for Fraser’s birthday recently, I took a stab at making one myself! I was pressed for time and Daily Catch Seafood on Commercial Drive made it so easy. I preordered a cooked 2lb Dungeness crab and some cocktail prawns as well as a lobster tail. These all came frozen so after pickup I thawed them out. The lobster tail needed cooking and the crab just a quick steam. As it turns out, the lobster needed about 8 minutes to cook, and…

  • Tofu Scramble

    November 14, 2023 / No Comments

    Sometimes… you’ve just got to have breakfast for dinner! “Breakfast for dinner” is a super fun dinner party theme! The PJs are a must (for the food coma to come) 😴  This is an easy tofu scramble recipe for any time of day and it’s sure to please vegans, vegetarians and omnivores alike. You can switch up the spices and herbs but I always leave the turmeric in for that nice yellow colour.

  • Slow Roasted Cherry Tomatoes with Burrata

    Slow Roasted Cherry Tomatoes with Burrata

    September 19, 2023 / No Comments

    I slow roast tomatoes all Summer long. Generally I freeze them so I can experience a burst of Summer flavour in the deep of Winter. However, many of them must be enjoyed fresh at the time of cooking! The perfect way to do this (in my mind) is to pair them with burrata and a nice toasted baguette. With this recipe you can make as few or as many tomatoes as you like. If you make a whole tray full, freeze some for later if you don’t need them all at once. When you roast the tomatoes at a low temperature over an ample amount of time, the sugars caramelize…

    July 28, 2021 / No Comments

    Hello again! I can’t count how many times I have seen watermelon and feta salads on social media and TV. It never really seemed like my jam (despite loving watermelon and feta….) but the other day I saw a photo on Instagram and thought now is the time to try it! I cannot remember who made the one that I saw so I had to wing it. It turned out so delicious, I just had to share it with you all. It is not an exact recipe….just a casual summer dish you can throw together using amounts that suit you. I’ll lay out the basics here though. This salad is…

    *Disclaimer: these Evive products were gifted to me however all of my opinions are my own and I am sharing them because I genuinely enjoyed this product. You may recognize Evive Nutrition’s signature smoothie cubes from Canada’s Dragon’s Den where they won over investors. Or, you may have seen their colourful images splashed over Facebook and Instagram. Evive’s smoothies are BLENDER-FREE, NUTRITIOUS and they TASTE GREAT! In my eyes, they win big on nutrition and convenience. All you need to do is pop the cubes out into a container, add a liquid of your choice (water, oat milk, etc) and shake! They are perfect for busy mornings when you are…

    It’s been so long! I hope everyone is staying safe and has managed to make the best of the various lockdown/quarantine situations around the world. I can’t believe it’s already October. It feels like we barely had a summer. Despite the wildness of 2020, I have somehow managed to have a great year and continue to try and live life to the fullest while we deal with the various restrictions this pandemic has brought upon us. I know it has been quite a long time since I wrote a blog post but I have been going through a bit of a personal revolution when it comes to food and health/wellness.…

    Legalization Day and How to Make Cannabis Infused Coconut Oil

    By continuing to read this post you are acknowledging that you are 19 years of age or older. Sooo if you haven’t already heard, October 17th is weed legalization day in Canada. If this isn’t your thing, look, I totally get it. But this is a part of our country now and I personally have no issue against this plant medicine. I think there are far worse things we need to spend our time and energy on than punishing people for consumption of this plant. So I am fully embracing this day and thought I would offer some guidance with how to use cannabis in an edible or topical way.…

    I just thought I would step outta the kitchen for a minute and into the arts and crafts zone because Halloween is coming up! If you’re unsure of what to be…a mermaid could be a fun costume. Or better yet, a hooked mermaid! This was such a fun costume to make, that I used it two years in a row! That is almost a sin for me as I have so much fun dressing up and making costumes but I just loved this crown so much I had to use it more than once! Sadly I left it in a taxi while I stopped for pizza before I made my…
