It’s finally starting to feel like spring and I’m celebrating with this Spring Pea Risotto recipe. To me, peas are a quintessential spring food item. What better way to celebrate them than making them the star of a delicious Spring Pea Risotto?
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 …
Overnight oats are one of the easiest make-ahead breakfast. But sometimes I find myself getting tired of all the same old combos. Enter: Earl Grey Overnight Oats. This recipe integrates one of my favourite things, Earl Grey tea, to create a fresh take on classic overnight oats. Continue reading Earl Grey Overnight Oats
This recipe has been on my ‘to be posted’ list for years. The reason that I’m only sharing it now is that I procrastinated shooting the accompanying photos until now… The recipe itself has been in my draft posts since last summer and in my recipe journal …
Happy Saturday! It’s finally starting to feel like winter around here after weeks of unseasonably mild weather. With the temperatures dropping deep into the negatives, I’m inclined to lean towards more warming and hardy foods. Enter Roasted Red Pepper + Cauliflower Soup!
Sheet Pan Sweet Potato Salad with Lemon Tahini Sauce is a super easy sheet pan meal to throw together. It can be eaten warm or can be stored in the fridge for up to four days to serve as a grab-and-go meal. A nice little bonus with this recipe is that the spices on the sweet potatoes smell phenomenal while they are baking, so you get a tasty dish and a nice-smelling home out of it—win-win! In fact, one of the first few times I made this dish coincided with a move-in date in my apartment building, and one of the people moving furniture in the hallway commented on how nice the hallway smelled to one of my roommates. So I guess that this dish actually has the potential to make your whole apartment building smell good too. Continue reading Sheet Pan Sweet Potato Salad with Lemony Tahini Sauce

I don’t know what it’s like where you all are, but it has been absolutely freezing here in Ontario the past few weeks. At this point in the season I seem to have a semi-permanent raspy voice from running outdoors in these crazy cold temperatures. …
This past weekend was my annual holiday baking weekend. This year I baked six different types of cookies to share and enjoy over the holidays. I stuck with my annual go-to’s for five of the cookies and decided to try something new for the last variety. This Hot Chocolate Cookie recipe is a spinoff of my all-time favourite chocolate chip cookie recipe by Displaced Housewife, her Dark Chocolate Olive Oil Cookies. The olive oil sounds like an odd addition, but trust me, it gives the cookies the most incredible gooey-without-being-too-gooey texture. Don’t knock it until you try it!

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.
