Gourmet Rig n’ Cheese

Comfort Food. There is nothing like it The beauty of comfort food is it goes beyond the stereotype. Each person has their own definition of what is considered comfort food. Whether it be a warm hearty bowl of chicken noodle, or a delicious grilled cheese with tomato soup. I think we can all agree that…

Mexican Hot Chocolate Cookies

Day of the Dead is now over and I’ve been in the kitchen making all my favorite savory dishes. Tortilla soup, Enchiladas, Tamales, you name it! Who doesn’t like Mexican food by the way? The fresh ingredients and big bold flavors are enough to tantalize every taste bud. But, something was missing. Was it the…

Black Pumpkin Ravioli | Brown Butter Sage Sauce

Not going to lie, I’m not huge on Halloween. I don’t put up cob webs or skeletons; I don’t hang ghosts in the windows. Growing up, Halloween parties just weren’t my thing. Perhaps it was too much effort to dress up or perhaps I didn’t want to freeze in a costume parading downtown nightclubs. My…

Spiced Apple & Pumpkin Soup

Here in Vancouver, the crisp air has come to make our noses red while not yet being cold enough to keep us indoors. I must say, our autumn so far has been picturesque. The maple trees are bright and full of red, yellow and green. The streets snow of leafs and evening comes way too…

Huevos Rancheros

Chocolate Blueberry Seed Muffins

When you wake up and have NOTHING in the fridge besides eggs, milk and a half container of blueberries, you make MUFFINS! I always ensure I have items for baking and these chocolate blueberry seed muffins are easy to whip up in 30 minutes flat. Don’t want the chocolate chips? Don’t add them! Want more blueberries?…

Veg-orizo tortellini | Broccolini | Tomato Broth

One of my favorite recipes I make is Chorizo and ricotta stuffed tortellini with a goat cheese tomato sauce. Since I am experimenting with vegetarian dishes, I decided to try and “imitate” the flavors of chorizo. And, as you can probably guess, I managed to successfully create a recipe that will make you second guess that it’s vegetarian. …

Spicy Peanut Buddha Bowl

So hot right now…. And for good reason. They’re packed with protein, can be used with virtually anything left in the fridge and it keeps you full with leftovers #yum. I took some inspo from my gal pal Jaimee since we are on the vegetarian band wagon. Check out this recipe: Directions: For the Rice On medium…
