This lemon roasted salmon and Brussels sprouts with prosciutto chips is easy to make, won’t leave you with a sink full of dishes and is downright delicious. I’ve paired this recipe with my plea for an expanded list of “signs of a sociopath,” including: people who sleep with socks on. Head over to the blog for the recipe and a laugh. Link in bio. .

I have never eaten so many eggs in a month as I have during this Whole30 challenge. Of all the inventive approaches to eggs I’ve taken, these Bacon & Egg Sweet Potato Boats with Avocado Cilantro Lime Sauce and Harissa Relish are the best. Get the recipe on the blog, link in bio. .

Blood Orange and Rosewater Mocktail. My cocktail shaker was feeling neglected so I decided to show it some love with this zero-proof drink. The rosewater brings an unexpected twist and pleasant floral notes that might make you forget how good gin tastes.
.
.
Blood Orange and Rosewater Mocktail
.
.
- 1 oz blood orange juice
- ½ oz lemon juice
- ½ oz rosewater
- 3 oz sparkling water - 3 raspberries, for garnish
.
.
- Combine blood orange juice, lemon juice, and rosewater in a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake for 30 seconds. Strain into a tumbler filled with a couple cubes of ice. Top with sparkling water. Garnish with raspberries skewered onto a cocktail pick

This may be the best chicken soup I’ve tasted, ever. This Peruvian Chicken and Potato Soup is packed with flavour. I used leftover chicken from the Greek roast chicken I made last week and tossed it in here, along with a zippy cilantro lime purée. Honestly, if you’re looking for a hearty soup to get you through winter, make this. Get the recipe on the blog, link in bio. .

Winner, winner, one-pot chicken dinner. I know what you’re thinking, “Woah! Is that food in your feed Yvonne?” Why yes it is! I’m doing dry January to recover from all the tippling involved in Let’s Get Blitzen AND I’m doing the Whole30 challenge in an effort to recalibrate after an indulgent holiday season that didn’t leave me feeling my best. .
.
This one-pot Greek roast chicken with potatoes and asparagus is full of flavour and unbelievably juicy. It also happens to be Whole30 compliant. Get the recipe on the blog, link in bio. .

Cheers to a new decade. To fresh starts, new friends, opportunities, challenges, lessons, and loves - all tackled with a can-do, “I’m worth it,” boss bitch attitude. I can’t wait to see what the roaring 20s hold in store. Happy New Year!

Day 24 of the Let’s Get Blitzen: Cocktail Advent Calendar - Blue Christmas. A tropical tequila note to conclude the 2019 edition of the Let’s Get Blitzen: Cocktail Advent Calendar. Since I’m celebrating the season in warmer climes, I thought I would put some sunnier flavours in your cup. .
.
Blue Christmas . .
- 2 oz reposado tequila
- ½ oz pineapple juice
- ½ oz lime juice
- ½ oz cinnamon syrup
- 1 lime wheel, for garnish
.
.
- Shake all ingredients with ice, then strain into a coupe. Garnish with the lime

Day 23 of the Let’s Get Blitzen: Cocktail Advent Calendar - Pear Magic. My friend Dianne reminded me how much she liked the Mulled Pear and Icewine Punch from last year’s cocktail advent calendar so I thought I should make some more boozy magic with pears. .
.
Pear Magic . .
- ¼ ripe Bartlett pear, diced
- 2 oz Calvados apple brandy
- ¼ oz Bénédictine
- ½ oz cinnamon syrup
- 2 dashes Peychaud's bitters
- 4 slices pear, skewered on a cocktail pick and fanned out
.
.
- - In a shaker, muddle the diced quince. Add the remaining ingredients and shake with ice. Strain into a double rocks glass filled with crushed ice. Garnish with pear fan.

Day 21 of the Let’s Get Blitzen: Cocktail Advent Calendar - Scrooge Sparkler. A simple collection of expensive French ingredients - just the kind of thing Ebenezer would refuse to share. .

- 1½ oz Calvados apple brandy
- ½ oz St-Germain elderflower liqueur
- 2 dashes absinthe
- 3 oz sparkling wine

Day 20 of the Let’s Get Blitzen: Cocktail Advent Calendar - Scotch Ginger Toddy. A more smoky, earthy concoction than your standard toddy with a bit of zip from ginger liqueur and bonus points for rosemary wreath garnish. .
.
Scotch Ginger Toddy
. .
- 4 oz boiling water
- 1 oz Scotch whisky
- ½ oz Domaine de Canton ginger liqueur
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 1 sprig rosemary, tied into a wreath, for garnish (optional)

Day 19 of the Let’s Get Blitzen: Cocktail Advent Calendar - Five Golden Rings. This cocktail employs equal parts of four different spirits (will likely require a trip to the liquor store), a splash of maple syrup and two flashes of fig and cinnamon bitters. It is dangerously easy to drink.
.
.
Five Golden Rings
. .
- ½ oz aged amber rum
- ½ oz Kraken rum
- ½ oz calvados
- ½ oz Bénédictine
- 1 barspoon maple syrup
- 2 dashes Fig & Cinnamon bitters
.
.
- Combine ingredients in a mixing glass with ice. Stir until chilled and strain into a chilled, absinthe-rinsed coupe. Garnish with an orange twist.

Day 18 of the Let’s Get Blitzen: Cocktail Advent Calendar - Mulled Wine. This winter warmer is very different from the mulled port I shared earlier in this series. It’s not as sweet and has a much brighter, citrusy palate. .
.
Mulled Wine
. .
- 1 bottle red wine, such as Cabernet Sauvignon
- ¼ cup brandy
- ¼ cup Grand Marnier
- ¼ cup water
- ¼ cup honey
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 2 star anise
- Juice of 1 orange
- Juice of 1 lemon
.
.
- Add all ingredients to a medium saucepan
- Bring to a boil over medium heat and then reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes.
- Serve warm with orange peel or slices for garnish.

Day 17 of the Let’s Get Blitzen: Cocktail Advent Calendar - Tangerine Eggnog. I can feel your skepticism from here, but trust me, this flavour combination works. It employs the same principle as a citrus curd. The tangerine peel and Grand Marnier bring a brightness to the rich, creamy eggnog that just works. .
.
Tangerine Eggnog
. .
- 1 tangerine
- 1 oz amber rum
- 1 oz Grand Marnier
- 4 oz eggnog
- pinch freshly grated nutmeg, for garnish
.
.
- In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine the peel of ½ a tangerine, 1 oz amber rum, 1 oz Grand Marnier and 4 oz eggnog. Shake and strain into a coupe. Garnish with freshly grated nutmeg and additional tangerine peel
