SKIP TO RECIPE This is an awesome vegetarian brunch option or meatless Monday meal. Just because a recipe features eggs, does that automatically lump it into the breakfast category? Don’t limit your imagination when it comes to this meal, it is equally delicious, regardless of the time of day. Serve with toasted sourdough to sop…

Mashed Potato Pancakes
SKIP TO RECIPE With American Thanksgiving this week, I wanted to give our neighbours to the south a little inspiration for what to do with all those leftovers. They’ll need to fuel up for Black Friday door-crashers. These Mashed Potato Pancakes are the absolute best way to repurpose those leftover mashed potatoes. That is, if…
Truffle Parmesan Hasselback Potatoes
SKIP TO RECIPE Tis the season for starchy goodness. Allow me to introduce, Truffle Parmesan Hasselback Potatoes. Bring on the winter bod. These are delightful little nuggets of Yukon gold.

Pumpkin French Toast with Pumpkin Butter
SKIP TO RECIPE If you’re wondering why there is just so much damn pumpkin content on the blog lately, I’ll tell you.

Grilled Summer Farro Salad with Cilantro Lime Dressing

Balsamic Peach & Pesto Pizza
SKIP TO RECIPE Fresh peaches have started showing up at local farmer’s markets and grocery stores and I could NOT be more excited. Peaches are one of my favourite fruits, raspberries are their only real competition. Putting fruit on a pizza always kind of reminds me of the dessert pizzas that I used to fill…
Goat Cheese Pasta Primavera
SKIP TO RECIPE I have more wardrobe malfunctions than Janet Jackson at the Super Bowl. Earlier this year, I was walking to a date and made the fatal mistake of taking too long a stride while wearing a pencil skirt. The modest slit in the front of the skirt, split from it’s natural resting place…
Maple Balsamic Sweet Potato Quinoa Salad
SKIP TO RECIPE I think this might be the first salad I’ve posted on the blog. Believe it or not, I’m not just subsisting strictly on booze and biscuits. I try to work salads into the rotation on a pretty regular basis, mainly so I don’t get scurvy or end up on the next season…
