Vegan Compost Cookies
Guys, I failed you. Sorry. I was in Toronto at this time last year, and I was attending a conference. There was lots to do, lots to see, and lots to eat. I had many entries on my list of places I wanted to eat …

Aquafaba Buttercream {Vegan}
Let’s face it, there isn’t much I haven’t tried to do with Aquafaba, and many of my efforts have been successful. I still haven’t mastered vegan choux pastry yet. Maybe that one isn’t doable? But the more I play with it, the more impressed I …
The Cheesiest! Vegan Instant Pot Mac and Cheese
Now, not to sound like I’m totally fawning, but like many of you, I really love my Instant Pot. I got one at Christmas, and I have yet to put it away. It lives on my counter, and I use it a few times a …
Amaretti Cookies {Vegan}
This is my second cookie recipe this week, both of which feature aquafaba. When I was doing research for this recipe, I had to go a bit further afield–Commercial Drive to be exact. I hadn’t had amaretti cookies in quite some time. They may not …

Veganizing Julia Child: Mushroom Bourguignon
Find Julia Child’s Vegan Apple Tarte Tatin here. I have long been a fan of Julia Child. I admire her immensely, because she was a pioneer in her field. Before Julia, there were very few female cookbook authors, and there were no TV chefs. She …
Chocolate Pumpkin Beer Cake {Vegan}
This cake has rapidly become my go-to when it comes to birthdays. Truthfully, I am kind of snob when it comes to baked goods. Despite the fact that my kid loves Oreos, we very seldom have them in the house. I prefer to send him …
Polenta Fries {Vegan Gluten-Free}
There is a photograph of me, somewhere, in a dusty old album, probably at my dad’s place, a grinning 2-year-old, happily splashing in the surf at Long Beach near Tofino. We were there for a family vacation, and showed my true colours early—any time I …
Vegan Scallops
I am Top Chef obsessed. Always have been. I’ve watched them all. My favorite, of course, were Top Chef Canada, because I loved seeing my local chefs (whose work I was a big fan of) shine on a national level. The Top Chef Canada franchise …
