Winter Vegetable Dahl
As the holiday season winds down, it seems as though cold and flu season is just starting to rev up, for me anyway. I’ve ben waking up to itchy ears, a stuffy nose and a nasty sinus headache. For the last two weeks I’ve been …

Welcome Home Mac ‘n “Cheese”
Lots of exciting news to share. First thing’s first, this past Friday my big sis left on her big Scottish adventure. Emma is on exchange in Scotland for the next five months. I am hopeful that I will have a chance to head over to the …
Pick-Me-Up Green Smoothie
During this time of the year I think we all could use a bit of a pick-me-up, right? I’m usually pretty tired when I get home from work, but the fact that it starts to get dark at around 4:30 is definitely not helping to prevent my afternoon energy levels from plummeting. Sometimes before I leave for work in the morning I like to whiz up a quick smoothie to store in the fridge for later. Pre-making smoothies works great for me because by the end of the day I’m too lazy to blend one up and typically end up reaching for an easier snack that isn’t as great.

Socca with Grilled Roots and Golden Hummus
As November sets in I have found myself in need of a good pick me up. It seems as though we completely skipped nice fall weather and went straight into the crappyness of November. I mean, I can’t really complain too much about the weather because we …

Golden Turmeric Latté
It’s no secret that this summer hasn’t been very “summery”. Sure, we got spoiled with some spectacular 30 degree dock days, but those were usually incompassed by about 7 straight days of rain. Needless to say the wearer has been less than ideal and I …
Perfect Roasted Garlic Hummus
There are some things that just put me in a really fantastic mood. Making a perfect batch of hummus is one of those things. You may think that that makes me very lame, but my argument is that you have to enjoy the little things in life …
Flourless Chocolate Cake
I am now officially done high school. I wrote my final exam last Friday and am graduating this Thursday. I must say it’s a pretty weird feeling. Since I have nothing to study for and no applications left to do I can finally do things that I actually want to do. My “to-do” list currently consists of baking a cake, baking cookies, wrapping end of year gifts and playing the piano. I’m pretty pleased with that list of tasks.

Raw Chocolate Energy Bites
In the days leading up to my school trip to Boston I was baking up a storm. As you can probably imagine the food on school trips is a far stretch from gourmet, but for people with intolerances and specific diets, such as I, the …
