Foodie turned Holistic Nutritionist
Growing up, my favourite breakfast food was french toast. And it had to have lots of cinnamon on top. Usually it was the cinnamon sugar kind. So I thought to create a new version, a more grown-up version if you will (although I think kids would love this too!). This apple cinnamon french toast is the kind of brunch food you save for the weekends and its well worth every minute making it.

I feel as though I’m late to the mug cake game, but I’ve arrived now and I am HERE. FOR. IT! What’s not to love about a single serve cake made in just over one minute? Beyond being incredibly genius, it’s also very practical too. This vegan mug cake is healthy, gluten-free and has both tahini and chocolate (a match made in heaven IMO). Serve it up with a scoop of your favourite ice cream for a delicious treat!

When you’re craving all the veggies! Go ahead and make some easy sheet pan roasted vegetables all on one tray. The combination of brussels sprouts, delicata squash and red onion cover your various veggie needs. And the sprinkling of za’atar on top brings all the flavour. The addition of pine nuts and halloumi make these sheet pan roasted veggies truly stand out.

Vegan or not, this one pot pasta is absolutely delicious! And I can almost guarantee that if you serve this to someone who didn’t know there wasn’t any dairy, they wouldn’t be able to tell. Beyond being incredible delicious, this vegan vodka sauce is also easy to throw together AND made in one pot!

One of my favourite things to order when I’m out at a restaurant is definitely fried calamari. But let’s be honest, deep frying (although delicious) is kinda intimidating when you’re doing it at home. Never mind the potential for flames to erupt from deep frying, it’s also kind of a pain in the butt to set it all up. Enter, the air fryer and these air fryer calamari! Crispy, easy, way less oil and absolutely delicious. And now it’s easy to enjoy calamari right at home!

We all know the best part of baking cookies, right? Eating the raw dough of course. I don’t know about you, but I love sneaking bites of it while I’m making a fresh batch. So, why not just make (and eat) straight cookie dough instead?! Well, now you can, because this healthy cookie dough is the EASIEST no bake edible cookie dough recipe there is. With just eight ingredients (including salt), you can easily whip these up and enjoy a bite whenever you want, no bakign required.

If you love chocolate, you’ll love these double chocolate muffins. Ultra moist, soft and pillowy, these gluten free and vegan muffins are made to impress. Made with a hot chocolate mix and studded with marshmallows and chunks of dark chocolate, they may just be more cupcake than muffin? Regardless, you definitely need to try these hot chocolate muffins to see for yourself!

This is one delicious vegetarian main! If you’re not familiar with cauliflower steaks yet, I hope these entice you to give them a try. When sliced into steaks, they’re meatier than traditional florets. And they’re a whole lot of fun to eat too. Slathered with harissa paste, this smoky and spicy cauliflower packs a punch. Serve it with a side of spiced black lentils, and a dollop of yogurt to cool down the heat. You’re gonna love these harissa cauliflower steaks!

Craving hot chocolate and also a cookie? These peppermint hot chocolate cookies are reminiscent of a cozy cup of hot chocolate complete with marshmallows. I’m telling you, these cookies are love at first bite and you don’t need to limit them just to winter time. They’d be great in the summer too, sort of like a S’mores cookie, just omit the peppermint extract. Feel free to use your favourite hot cocoa mix. Perfectly soft and chewy with pools of dark chocolate, these gluten free double chocolate cookies are seriously heaven.

My love for all things hot honey isn’t going anywhere. That sweet and spicy combination just gets me every.single.time. And when you combine that with chicken, something magical happens. Then again, something magical always happens whenever I eat chicken thighs. It’s my favourite part of the chicken, especially the bone-in and skin-on pieces, YES PLEASE! If you’re like me and love it too, then you’re gonna want to give this hot honey chicken a try. Serve alongside some crispy baby potatoes and kale and make it all in one pan too. What’s not to love about that?!
