Paleo Falafel (no beans!)

Paleo Falafel (no beans!)

Ground nuts, seeds and fresh herbs make the perfect texture and flavor in these bean-free, low-carb, and keto falafel balls. First, I have to say:: I have nothing against beans! I love them… sometimes. It’s just nice to have options, you know? A recipe for those days where you’re all like, “I want falafel, but…

Tropical Lime Kale Salad

Tropical Lime Kale Salad

I made a batch of 5-Minute French Fries earlier this week, smothered the whole plate in mustard (yeh, I like mustard on my fries) and proceeded to chow down to my hearts content. I got halfway through the batch and just couldn’t have another bite. I was stuffed.

Fresh n’ Raw Pad Thai Salad

Fresh n’ Raw Pad Thai Salad

I love enjoying food. Like, taking my time preparing a bunch of different sides, salads and entree options with not a care in the world. Like, sitting leisurely as I pick away at my plate. Like, indulging in a simple dessert with absolutely no guilt.

We’re rockin’ into day 2 of the cleanse. How are you doing? I’m a bit tired and my skin is doing something funky – blemishes galore up in ‘her, but otherwise I’m feeling great. It’s normal, when doing a cleanse, to feel a bit slow and tired, so I’m not too concerned. Slow and steady…

I ate this for breakfast yesterday morning, had it again for lunch… and can just about guarantee that I’ll be enjoying it again today. It’s just that good. Now I know what you’re thinking, ‘dairy-free butter chicken? It has to taste off.’ It doesn’t. I had my fair share of authentic butter chicken while I…

I’ve prepared almost every single one of their recipes over the years and have long since dreamed of sitting in their Spadina location sipping on elixirs and filling my belly with yummy vegan…

Wow, what a great weekend I just had, my gosh. Did you have a good weekend? I know, it’s already Tuesday but I feel like it’s Monday so bear with me. It all began on Friday morning when I boarded the train at Montreal Central Station headed for Kitchener, Ontario. It was a long trek,…

Spicy Mango Rice Bowl with Tofu (or chicken)

Spicy Mango Rice Bowl with Tofu (or chicken)

I’ve been enjoying these rice bowls in my lunch all week, but haven’t had the chance to share the recipe with you. I blame homemade yogurt, preparing for my race, and berries n’ cream parfaits. Do you forgive me? My eats this week have been marvelous. No complaints are coming from this stomach, that’s for…

Spicy Cilantro Hummus

Spicy Cilantro Hummus

I’m blogging from beautiful British Columbia tonight from a cabin in the middle of nowhere. I have my iPhone pressed up to the window and am working via a tethered one-bar connection, so my apologies on no opening snow filled picture tonight. With the experimental menu I’ve planned for our stay here I hope they’ll…
