Mixed Berry Yogurt Pots
Not a word of a lie, this recipe helped me get through finals. Finals are a very strange time of the year, since you no longer have classes it feels like you have more time than you know what to do with, but also not …

Buffalo Cauliflower Salad + Vegan Cool Lime Ranch Dressing
At the moment I have a little bit of time off before I start work for the summer. That means that I have time to create some fun new recipes and other posts to share here! Yay! I spent my evening last night scrolling through …
On-the-Go Greens Scramble
Now a days it’s all about ease and convenience. I can definitely relate. This semester has been a total whirlwind of assignments, midterms, exams, and a little bit of fun too, making it difficult to find spare time to do anything for myself. One commitment that I have made and been fairly strict with is to properly fuel my body. When you’re constantly on the go it can be difficult to make good choices in terms of food and it becomes increasingly easy to forget to eat (a concept I never understood until I entered university). As students we are being constantly bombarded by information and somewhat unrealistic expectations, which are nearly impossible to retain or meet if we aren’t treating ourselves kindly.

Morning Bircher Muesli Mix
At times my life tends to be a little bit disorganized and chaotic, but I try my best to keep my sh*t in order. When I have a bit of free time, which is hardly ever, I try to organize myself to make the days …
Curried Sweet Potato + Celeriac Soup
With Christmas behind us now we are getting into the less nice part of winter – a.k.a every day of winter after Christmas – and the need for coziness is at its peak. At school I like to cook in big batches so I don’t …
Strawberry Chia Jam with a Twist
A few weeks before summer officially began, I sat down and wrote a bucket list of all the things that I wanted to (try to) do before September rolled around. One of the items on the list was berry picking. I have a couple of raspberry bushes in my own garden and I can often times be found picking wild berries in some field or on the side of the road, but I had never actually gone to a berry farm and picked my own. Lucky for me, I live in the perfect area for picking your own produce. Continue reading Strawberry Chia Jam with a Twist
Four Easy + Refreshing Juices
‘Tis the season, for cold juices that is. With the past few days climbing up to the high twenties I’ve been a big fan of pressed juices. Buying fresh juice can be pretty pricey, which I find to be strange considering how, relatively, inexpensive it …
Super-seeded Hemp Heart Granola
Back in the summer I did a bit of housesitting for my aunt while she was away on holiday with her family. I was in charge of looking after the house and her two dogs: Charlie, a Rhodesian Ridgeback and Tucker, a Corgi. For the …
Roasted Beet and Barley Salad with Pesto
Happy Easter weekend friends! When holiday feasting time rolls around the vegetarian options can sometimes be a bit lacking (think Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter). Since I don’t eat turkey or ham and my family isn’t exactly too keen on testing out a nut roast recipe, although that does sound pretty good to me, I decided to come up with a fun and delicious recipe that everyone in my family, vegans and carnivores alike, can enjoy.

Sweet and Spicy Cauliflower Tacos with Red Cabbage Slaw
A little while back I was browsing instagram, as one does, when I came across an instagram story from Tara O’Brady, the author of the Seven Spoons blog and cookbook. The story was a very loose recipe for roasted cauliflower with honey, hot sauce and nutritional yeast. …
