Beautiful & Easy Thyme Roasted Vegetables

We were hosting for Passover this year. I love hosting, but you know what I love more? The feeling after everyone’s gone and enjoyed their time around the table. Ever since we moved to Canada, we’ve been having our Passover Seder meals with friends. We used to have them with family and then it’s bigger […]

Vegetarian Chickenless Pot Pie With Amazing Coconut Oil Crust

The first day of spring is tomorrow – yay!! but in reality, I just heard that we’re expecting 5cm of snow tomorrow with rain and winds for dessert, so really, I’m not buying this whole “first day of spring” thing, not here in Nova Scotia. BUT, since it is the first day of spring in […]

Fantastic Baked Quinoa Stuffed Peppers

Ever since I was a child I remember loving stuffed peppers, stuffed cabbage, stuffed everything. With sour cream on top, as far as I’m concerned, you don’t need anything else.

Vegetable Coconut Curry – Rainbow in My Plate

After returning from our summer trip to Montreal, Ottawa and Quebec City I kind of missed our Friday dinners. Yes, we only missed two but still from some reason it felt like the weeks are just getting too long. Maybe it’s the fact that I had nothing to be my “closure” for the week; that […]

Almond Portobello Pasta

Pasta is always my go-to dish. Why? Well, two reasons: 1) The pasta I have at home is always Gluten-Free, which means that it is rice pasta, which means it’s less likely to give that ‘heavy’ feeling after eating it, and we like that. 2) There are so many options for pasta. You can add […]

Golden Beet and Garlic Salad

My mom always makes this awesome beet salad. With olive oil and lemon and garlic, I just love it! But if there’s anything I don’t like about it is the fact that the beets always make it look like I just murdered someone in my kitchen, right there on the cutting board, and I can’t […]
