Plant-Forward Living with Rebecca Coleman
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 …

A few years back, when I first started my business, I’d bake mountains of Christmas cookies to distribute to my clients this time of the year. Well, times have changed. My teaching career took off, I entered the lucrative world of food blogging (LOL) and …
