Current status: Drinking a Guinness in self-isolation. The world is in an unfortunate state right now, but I’m doing my best to make the most of my time alone at home, especially today – St. Patrick’s Day! Hopefully, in one year’s time, when you are searching for a St. Paddy’s Day recipe and (maybe, if…
Apple Cardamom Hand Pies with a Rum Glaze
Hey cutie pie, how’s your day going? Going well over here because we have hand pies. Apple Cardamom Hand Pies, to be exact! I call them “hand pies” but they really should be called “foot pies” because they are bigger than the average hand. And that’s a good thing. This pie recipe is simple, quick…
Gourmet Adult Grilled Cheese with Quick Tomato Jam

Crockpot Ginger and Turmeric Immune-Boosting Soup
Soup. Soupa-doop. Soupa-doopa-doopa-doop. Grab your salt ‘n pepa (get it?!) and let’s finish off this last month of winter with some cozy, comforting, cold-fighting soup! Nineteen. More. Days.

Matcha Latte
The last few weeks I have been taking a leave of absence from coffee, and lemme tell you, it’s not ideal. It has been exactly one month – to the day – where I have deprived myself of the greatest beverage known to humankind and I was sure I would be miserable without it. On…
Cauliflower and Sweet Potato Curry
I think it is safe to say that one of my favourite continents for food inspiration is Asia. Thai, Vietnamese, Israeli, Japanese…and today – I’m Indian-inspired. A land of spices and flavours. I’m in love with warm curries, samosas, chutneys, naan bread, paneer, rice…everything. It’s so good. And since it is very cold and snowy…
Healthy 5-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cups

Roasted Vegetable Quinoa Bowl
It’s February and guess what? Still eating well. That’s right, 2020. We are still going strong. Just a sheer image of health over here. Kidding, I had a cannoli for lunch. I’m not worried though, because this quinoa bowl will get me back on track. All kidding aside, I have been eating this for the…
Orzo, Halloumi and Roasted Grape Salad
At the beginning of January, I was all – “One carb per day,” and now I’m all – “One carb per meal.” It just feels good, okay?! Enter: Orzo. A little rice-shaped pasta that absorbs flavours and makes a perfect side dish or salad. Cooking orzo is easy – Just add some olive oil to…
