EVIVE Nutrition – Smoothies, Soups and Bowls!
*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…

Simple AF Potato-Leek Soup {Vegan}
Excuuuuuuse my absence! I have no excuse myself except that life got in the way of things – summer is always so busy! Flokie and I are back in the swing of things though and ready to get to work on some recipes. I’m finishing up school in holistic nutrition, so will probably be doing some more posts on health and wellness, natural household products & cleaners and natural body care products. Is there anything you would like to learn about or learn how to make? Diet question? Health questions? Just let me know in the comments! I’ve been making soups and chili in batches for the freezer because it’s…

Drop Dead Recipes- Veggie & Black Bean Chili
I know most places are creeping into Spring right now, but there are always those cold, wet, rainy April days and who couldn’t use a warming bowl of chili on those days. I am heading into the New Zealand winter and kind of unsure what to expect. I know it will probably be a lot less dreary than endless Vancouver rain, though! I kind of look forward to those gloomy winter days when you can cozy up with a nice warm bowl of soup or chili. This veggie & black bean chili is bursting with flavour from aromatic cumin, coriander, and chili powder. It’s packed with yummy extras like portobello…

Drop Dead Recipes- Butternut Squash Soup
This chilly month, I made a warm, comforting butternut squash and apple soup. Of course I decorated these in Drop Dead fashion! I love the taste of this soup, with sweetness coming from apples and maple syrup. The spices I used offer healthful benefits, especially with the miracle spice- turmeric! Head over to the Drop Dead Clothing Blog to check out the recipe…and my Dead Jersey! I am so stoked this week, because I get to go to not one, but two concerts. I’m a huge fan of music, and I love going to concerts. This week I am seeing one of my all-time favourite singers, Matt Mays. A couple…

Vegan Chestnut Soup
I hope everyone had an awesome Christmas, and I hope everyone got their party on for New Year’s Eve!! I know I did…..hah! I learned that in downtown Vancouver at 2am on New Year’s Eve, it may take two hours to find a cab. I learned that you may have to walk for blocks and blocks while your feet are killing you. I learned that none of that really matters as long as you had fun, dancing for hours with your friends! Now I’m taking some time to figure out what my goals are for this year, and how to make them happen. Did anyone make any big resolutions?? If…

Fresh Vegetarian Pea Soup
I love soup, and pea soup is one of my favourites. It’s light, healthy, and easy to make. I am especially fond of pea soup after one of my recipes for it was published in a cookbook! I made pea soup the other day, and the recipe I used was very similar to my own Spring Pea Soup. The difference was that for once, I had fresh peas on hand! I always make soup with frozen peas, but thanks to the garden this year, I had a huge bag of fresh peas to use! I topped the soup off with a dollop of Greek yogurt for a bit of extra…
