Easiest Beef Stew With Potatoes

I’m going to start with a statement here: “I love my mother in law’s food” I really do, I’m not just saying it to become her favorite, it’s been too long and it’s too late now 🙂 I’m just being honest with you. After we moved to Canada and had to adjust to life with […]

Fresh Salmon in Herbs and Walnuts

A few years ago, after deciding we are moving to Canada we had a few months in which we lives at my parents’ house. It wasn’t easy let me tell ya, it’s pretty hard leaving your fully independent lifestyle behind and moving to your parents’ house with your family. My parents were amazing and we […]

Breaded Tofu Schnitzels

Every Friday we have the same thing, Breaded Schnitzels and mashed potatoes for me and the kids and something vegetarian to go with the mashed potato for the hubby. The kids love it, I love it, why fight it? so basically every week the things that change are the side salad/s and the vegetarian dish. […]

Almond Brown Sugar Spelt Cookies

Me and my Spelt flour again – yay! 🙂 This time, there is no real story behind these cookies other than the fact that I REALLY wanted something sweet and crunchy for dessert. These cookies were perfect because the dough needs to be stored in the fridge for 2 hours prior to making the cookies, […]

Gluten Free Bell Peppers and Goat Cheese Corn Muffins

I would like to start this post with a rant and go ahead and say it: I don’t like preparing the kids’ lunchboxes! not on a daily basis. Does this make me an awful mom? I hope not. I guess I’m the only one to blame. I have such high expectations and standards I set […]

Lemon Meringue Butter Cookies

T’is the season for baking, or so they say, but really every season is a season for baking. I know, I know it’s a tradition thing, but I don’t need a specific season to bake, or more specifically bake cookies. Everywhere you look there’s cookies for the holidays, if it’s online, in-store, on brand websites, […]

Smooth Butternut Squash Soup

So what do you do when it’s cold and dreary outside and when you don’t really feel like standing in the kitchen for too long? Yup, soup. Pumpkin/ Squash season is coming to its end but I thought I’d give it one last kick at the can. I just found out that I had this […]
