What’s better than a hearty harvest salad? Maybe a cup of hot apple cider (with booze). Both would probably be best. This is a true meal salad. It’s a bit of an investment in dishes as you’ll need to use a few different pots and pans to pull this all together but it’s a great…

Blueberry Broccoli Salad with Ranch Dressing
I realized it’s been a hot second since I posted a salad recipe and with the warmer weather comes an inclination towards lighter, leafy meals. This blueberry broccoli salad with homemade ranch dressing is just the ticket. To be completely honest, I often don’t like ranch. Cool Ranch Doritos are my least favourite flavour and…
Freekeh Salad with Halloumi & Tahini Za’atar Dressing
Instead of launching into whatever subject matter I’ve decided I want to explore today, I thought I would take the novel approach of telling you a little bit about this recipe. I’m breaking from my usual practice simply because this may be the first time you’ve encountered the word, “freekeh” and perhaps “za’atar” is also…
Strawberry Steak Salad with Balsamic Vinaigrette

This Thai Beef and Mango Salad on Vermicelli is packed with incredible flavour, with a perfect balance of sweet, spicy, and savoury. I prepared the beef using my sous vide precision cooker to achieve a juicy and…
Herbed Israeli Couscous Salad with Corn and Feta
Oh hi there, it’s me, Yvonne. Hope you didn’t forget about me. Last week really got away from me and I didn’t post any Taste & Tipple content. My goal is to post twice a week. Lately, I’ve been traveling for work quite a bit and have found it hard to manage my time effectively…
Chickpea Taco Salad
I work downtown and despite it being the mostly densely populated part of the city during working hours, it’s a total food desert. There seem to be so few palatable options that exceed the scope of pizza, shawarma or Subway. One of the few places where I’m able to take shelter at the lunch hour…
