Think: flaky, creamy, cheesy, lemony, zucchini-y. All of the good things about a savoury dish brought together into a pretty and rustic galette. If you know me, you know I love a good galette. And I love mixing it up and creating both sweet and savoury galettes. I’ve tried everything from stone fruit to tomato…

Lemony Vegan Basil Pesto
Nothing says summer more than a bright and herbaceous pesto! Who’s with me?! Pesto is a highly underused food, IMO. It is so versatile – from a sauce for pasta or pizza to a simple spread for toast, it is a complete flavour bomb! Traditionally, pesto is made with five key ingredients: Basil, pine nuts,…

Pear, Mozzarella and Caramelized Onion Flatbread
Are you a human? Well then this recipe is for you! Because, NO ONE that I know and respect dislikes pizza. Honestly, if someone tells you they don’t like pizza, they’re lying. Don’t trust them.
