Feature Recipe | “Buttermilk” Biscuits  This is an adapted (plant-based) version of a Canadian Living recipe I came across back in 2007. It’s one of those tried and true recipes you revisit and never tire of — love at first bite really. This past Christmas I made two batches of these biscuits while visiting my […]

Feature Recipe | Red Pesto Style Sauce This sauce is bursting with flavour… sweet vine-ripened tomatoes are married with savoury cashew-based parmesan cheese, garden fresh basil and minced garlic to create an authentic pesto-inspired sauce with the perfect balance of sweet meets salty and savoury. Think of it as your almond and tomato alternative to […]

Feature Recipe | Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookie Makes 6-8 cookies There’s no denying I have a sweet tooth. That being said I feel like my affinity for sweets has been tempered since going plant-based. I don’t crave ice cream and cookies as often as I used to and I now find a little goes a […]

Feature Recipe | Pumpkin Lentil Curry   Pure pumpkin delight is how I best describe this dish.  This Indian-inspired curry sauce – boasting a radiant orange hue – marries sweet pumpkin flesh and red lentils with creamy coconut milk and warm, aromatic spices. Looking for all the flavour of classic Indian cuisine without compromising on flavour? No […]

  Feature Recipe | One-Skillet Vegan Pad Thai   This dish is best described as a tangy sweet and sour sauce with a notable (and welcomed) kick of heat tossed with rice noodles, sautéed broccoli florets and pan-fried crispy tofu nuggets. Fresh bean sprouts, cilantro and lime wedges embellish this classic Thai-inspired dish and tease the […]

Feature Recipe | Ultimate Vegan Hamburger Helper Take my word for it….a quick description to tease your palette: Browned soy ground round, noodles and cheese smothered in a savoury sauce with a hint of smokiness and kick of lively Argentinian-inspired spices. Why this recipe: Hamburger Helper – an iconic packaged food brand from the 1980s […]
