We’ve had an unexpected brush with winter here on the West Coast, which left us in a deep freeze for about a week, and resulted in a snow day. Now if you live pretty much anywhere East of where I live in Vancouver, snow and 

Gluten Free Brownies

I feel like I’m up for the challenge of veganizing pretty much anything. I mean, I’ll at least give it a shot. Sometimes it’s an epic fail, but more often than not, I’m pretty impressed at how I can recreate a dish using no butter, 

My Mom’s Date Squares

My Mom’s Date Squares

About a year ago, I came into possession of my mom’s recipe box. Now, I lost my mom to cancer 12 years ago, so this is somewhat of a treasure to me. Not just because these are recipes I remember her making (and me loving),

Well, hello there, October. I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one, but this year feels like it has been both the longest and the shortest of all time. Like when we were in quarantine? So slow. But things feel a bit more normal now,

Well, it’s officially summer here in Vancouver, though the weather seems to be a bit confused as to what season it is. However, July 15 is Blueberry Day, so hence today’s recipe. To add to the long list of why 2020 sucks, our summer has

Well if there’s one thing I love, it’s a recipe with a good story. The beginning of this story starts with me watching a new netflix cooking series called Nadiya’s Time to Eat (you’ll recall I made her Tortilla Egg Roll-Ups a couple weeks back).

I mean, if there’s one thing I love, it’s mixing the savoury with the sweet. It’s fun to put ingredients in a dessert that you’d think have no right being there, and yet turn out to taste so good. A few months ago, I stumbled

I’m in the process of writing a new cookbook, and inevitably, when I get into recipe development, I start thinking about when I was a kid, learning to bake. For me, as a cookbook author and recipe developer, one of the biggest challenges is creating

Inspiration is a fickle beast. I’ve been writing this blog for so long, I don’t actually know how long it’s been, but I’m guessing it’s a decade or so. Certainly my participation has waxed and waned. There have been times when I generated 5 blog 

Pumpkin Spiced Donuts {Vegan}

Pumpkin Spiced Donuts {Vegan}

In my pumpkin-spiced frenzy these last couple of weeks, I’ve been doing less recipe creation and more remaking old favourites. I made the No Sugar Spice Cake, which is sweetened with dates and Kabocha, and full of lovely warming spices. I made squash risotto. And
