I think my favourite salad may just be one with lots of noodles. Slurping up saucy noodles is just so incredibly satisfying, right? Adding crunchy veg, and a delicious spicy peanut sauce takes it up a whole new level. So that’s exactly what I did when I made these soba noodles with peanut sauce. It’s got so much kick from garlic to the spicy taste of sriracha that I think I could put this sauce on anything. Plus, it’s the perfect cold soba noodle salad to take with you wherever you go.

Zucchini season is one of my favourites, but if you have too many you can start to wonder what to do with them all. If that sounds like you, then hopefully these vegan zucchini fritters can help! I love how easy these are to make, and how tasty they are too. You can easily whip these up in one bowl, in under 45 minutes. I like adding some kick to them with a serrano pepper, but if you don’t want any spice, you can omit them. Cooling them off with a cool ranch dip is also highly, highly recommended.

I’ve been making these roasted carrots for a long time and I don’t plan on stopping. They’re sweet, sticky and savory. Every time I make them for someone, they love them just as much as I do. They sort of taste like candy. Not like candy, candy, but you know, delicious just the same. Even though carrots are already naturally sweet, I still like adding a drizzle of maple syrup to them. These maple roasted carrots have a savory miso dressing that helps to balance the flavours.

If you’re looking for a different way to use canned tuna, I HIGHLY suggest making this recipe! This is probably one of my favourite recipes I’ve made in a while. It has all the components you want in a sushi recipe, minus any hassle. Because let’s face it, rolling sushi isn’t always easy. Crispy rice, spicy tuna, smooth avocado, nori, and a hint of wasabi. It’s basically sushi pizza and I’m here for it! Learn how to make this spicy tuna on crispy rice right now.

This cake! It reminds me of that McCain chocolate cake with frosting that I used to devour when I was younger. Except this version is a lot healthier and even has some zucchini in it. It’s a gluten free zucchini chocolate cake and I think you’re gonna love it. Because not only is the cake itself delicious and moist (sorry for using that word!), it also has a rich and SUPER EASY chocolate frosting. I’m talking just four ingredients here!

This is hands down the BEST vegan bolognese sauce I’ve ever made and tried. It’s got texture from the mushrooms and walnuts and so much umami flavour. And it’s surprisingly light. Because of the reliance on fresh tomatoes, it’s great for spring and summer. Serve it on top of any type of pasta you wish, or even use spiralized veggies.

Nothing quite says spring and summer like lettuce wraps! And these shredded harissa chicken thighs are so perfect tucked inside. Although this is one of those recipes that are on the messier side (in terms of eating them), they’re well worth the mess. I’ve topped these crunchy wraps with beautiful additions like a spiced almond mix, all the fresh herbs and a simple sumac-lemon yogurt dressing. The flavours in this recipe will definitely make your tastebuds sing and your mouth very happy.

I had the idea in my head to make these vegan sweet potato brownies for a little while now. And I am SO glad I went and made them. These are ULTRA fudgy! And you’d never even guess they have sweet potato in them. In fact I served them to someone without telling them and he had no idea. He was actually quite surprised. The peanut butter swirled into these brownies makes them even better, in a way that only peanut butter can.

Whether or not you’re actually celebrating a birthday, birthday cake flavoured things are always a good idea. And these healthy gluten free no bake cookies may just be THE BEST idea. Not only are they the easiest, most fool proof recipe to make, they contain minimal ingredients and have sprinkles! What more do you need out of a baked good?

Has spring finally arrived?! I think so and I couldn’t be happier with the change in the season and of course all the fresh produce. I picked up some beautiful cherry tomatoes and decided to make this savory gluten free galette. Another great spring find (and one of the best ways to tell that spring is really here) are ramps. So I knew I had to incorporate them in this spring forward grain free galette recipe.
