I know that it is technically spring, but the weather outside is suggesting otherwise. As much as I love spring dishes, I’m still leaning towards cozy recipes closer to the winter end of the spectrum while the weather remains cold and snowy. I’m sure I …
This is the first non-vegetarian recipe I have ever shared here on Olive + Wisteria. When I started eating meat again in fall 2022 after five and a half years as a vegetarian, it took a while to get used to. During this transition period I developed the recipe for my Quick Chicken Meatballs with Ginger + Scallions. I found these incredibly palatable while I was reacquainting myself with meat. Even now, after over a year of being a meat eater, I still love this recipe. It’s a big hit with my family too! Continue reading Quick Chicken Meatballs with Ginger + Scallions
Although I love summer, the transition towards more autumnal temperatures and the first colours of fall have been refreshing. Fall is a season of many things: pumpkin spices lattes, apple desserts, and the official start of soup season – my favourite!
I cooked up some deliciously easy Shakshouka on my Instagram stories the other day and saved the recipe to my highlights, but I thought I would write it up and share the recipe here too for anyone who does not have Instagram.
I cannot believe that it is already September! Where did the summer go?! With the first week of September now behind us, I am sure that many of you have returned to school, work, and with that, busier schedules. This week I started my third (and final!) co-op term of my undergraduate degree. It’s hard to believe that I’m in my final year now, time has truly flown! I’ve definitely been experiencing information overload this week while settling into and navigating my new role, but I am very excited for this term. Continue reading Roasted Beet Hummus
Can we just take a minute to acknowledge how quickly this summer has flown by? How is it already August?! Crazy stuff! I’ve been trying to soak up the delicious flavours of summer before fall strikes and I have to wait another full year to …
So, I have a kinda funny story for you all. Well, my life is all kind of a funny story, but this situation really takes the cake. Leading up to Christmas holidays I was experiencing discomfort in my lower jaw near the back of my …
With my personal week from hell now officially behind me, I am in a rather celebratory mood and what better way to celebrate than with cookies? For all those who are unaware, last week I had four midterms, which was already bad enough, but I also didn’t have any time to grocery shop because I was too busy studying for said midterms, I almost got hit by a car, and I basically just didn’t sleep. Sunday night after walking out of the last of my midterms I was an absolute dead woman. By the time that I got home I was so tired that I fell asleep with all my lights on while waiting for my laundry to be done. I can honestly say it was the worst week ever. But now it’s behind me and I have time to cook and enjoy my life again (yay!). Continue reading Cozy Oatmeal + Cranberry Cookies
Well, it’s finally starting to feel like fall and I don’t just mean because of the weather. At this point every one of my roommates (including myself) has been sick, midterms are getting ready to kick my ass and it gets dark before 8pm.
