Vegan Purple Sweet Potato Pie

Vegan Purple Sweet Potato Pie

I am entranced. I just discovered these purple sweet potatoes, and I am in love with their colour. Have you ever seen anything like it in nature? Sure, eggplants, yeah, but they’re only that colour on the outside. These beauties are purple all the way

Vegan Chocolate Mousse #Aquafaba

Well, ever since I discovered aquafaba, I’ve been having so much fun playing with it! This really is a game-changer for those who have egg allergies, or who are vegan. It opens up a whole world of possibilities! Earlier, I made meringues, and I’m looking 

Energy Bites {Vegan, Gluten-Free}

Energy Bites {Vegan, Gluten-Free}

One BIG challenge of being a food blogger is that you are always getting invites to amazing dinners and tastings. I’m not complaining, mind you, but sometimes it’s hard to fit in healthy eating in and around the fried chicken (which I ate last night).

Every once in a while, as a food blogger, you discover something new that you just can’t help fall in love with. I should say up front that I am in no way being paid to endorse this product. I just think it’s the bomb.com, 

Overnight Yeasted Waffles

Overnight Yeasted Waffles

I can’t imagine a life without waffles. When I was a kid, sometimes my mom would make waffles for dinner on the weekends, and those were special times. Homemade waffles in and of themselves were pretty special, but for dinner?? Extra bonus special. Waffles are 

Butter Bakery’s Ginger Cookies

Butter Bakery’s Ginger Cookies

I have no idea what is wrong with me. I have lived in Vancouver for most of my life, and for some reason, I only got to Butter Baked Goods and Cafe for the first time just a little while ago. I guess maybe part of
