Spring Pasta Salad
(cover image by the goregous Christine McAvoy) Here’s the truth: I have been working too hard lately. But it’s for democracy, so…. On March 22, our new Prime Minister, Mark Carney, called a snap election, and the next day, I became part of the team …
Vegan Smash Tacos
Here’s something you maybe didn’t know about me: I lived in Newfoundland for a big chunk of my life. It’s true! While I was born in Vancouver, and I lived here till I was 12, the summer I turned 13, my mom, dad, my brother …

Asian-Inspired Noodle Salad
I’m a pretty big meal-prepper. I was more faithful when I had a full-time job out of necessity, but now that I’m back to being freelance, I still find it really important to have food ready to go in my fridge. The thing about me, …
High Protein Greek Salad {Vegan}
What’s the greatest meal you’ve ever had in your life? For many people, what will spring to mind is a fancy restaurant, a special occasion, a birthday perhaps, or an anniversary. Maybe you saved for a long time to be able to eat at that …
