Grain-free Carrot Cupcakes with Dairy-free ‘Cream cheese’ Buttercream
Every couple of months there’s a recipe that; no matter how many times I try, just won’t work out. I have a really hard time giving up on things and have a very strong desire to reach for my dreams, no matter how ridiculous they may be. Who dreams of making the perfect grain-free cupcake?…
Chicken Noodle Meatloaf
Every Sunday afternoon my Dad made us two bowls of chicken noodle soup + a tall stack of saltines for the weekly afternoon golf show on CBC. We’d sit on the chesterfield; my feet barely hanging over the sides, with my soup on my lap and my crackers laid out on the cushion beside me….
Cranberry Mango Millet Salad
Have you ever fallen victim to a week that just wouldn’t end? Generally I’m against wishing the week away, but this week is an exception. In 3 days I’ll be lining up with thousands of other runners to participate in my very first half marathon. I just want the week to fly by so that…
15 Minute Salmon Cakes with Fresh Tartar Sauce
Enjoying a cooling dinner after a long day in the sunshine is pure bliss. Having a fear of heights while climbing a wall is the exact opposite. Kind of a deal breaker, actually. Although I did get higher with each climb, set goals and pushed my personal limit, I think it’s fair to say that…
Comforting Baked Mac n’ Cheese with Bacon
It’s been cold all weekend long. The thermostat is cranked up to 73F, my toes have been wrapped up in my favorite woolly socks, and I’ve had more naps than I want to admit. Enter the casserole that will keep us warm until Spring decides to kick old man Winter to the sidelines. I made…
Exotic Spiced Lentil and Tomato Soup
Soup isn’t a popular meal at our house. I love it, Kevin loves it, but we both love different kinds. Kevin’s idea of a good soup is broth + MEAT. My idea of a good soup is vegetables, meats, lentils, and spices. Kevin wont have anything to do with eating the soup that I like…

Cranberry Barbecue Beef Oven Stew + Socca
I was so excited to drive out to the mountains for a lunch at Iron Goat Pub and Grill that I completely forgot my camera. [Makes for a great excuse to return!] I was so excited to have the gluten free fries and chicken wings, that I forgot to sprinkle salt on top. I was…
Garden Patch Bison and Elk Burgers
My earphones are alive! I have a new found respect for iPod earphones. I remembered a coworker suggesting that I put my iPhone in rice when I dropped it in my water bottle [don’t ask… I have a thing with electronics.]. So, when my iPod earphones were put through the wash on Saturday night, I…
Hit the Spot Chicken Marinara Melt
Our homemade mini studio isn’t quite ready. We’ve decided to add one more layer of paint before setting things up. Dun, dun, duh… I’m so excited to use it, and show all of you what we’ve made! I’m hoping that by the weekend everything will be ready and rearing to go, and I can spend…
