Beet & Carrot Stained Grains

Beet & Carrot Stained Grains

I have some big news to share with you all today (If you're on Instagram, you may already know). Things have been very busy here lately. I've been working extra shifts while looking for employment. We've been meeting up with friends for drinks and crossing restaurants off our must-eat list. We've been heading to the mountains basically every chance ...

Leek & Celery Root Cakes

Leek & Celery Root Cakes

Sweet breakfasts aren't really my thing. Oatmeal is nice once in a while, and smoothies are often my go-to on work days just because they're so easy, but given the opportunity I will always pick a savoury breakfast over a sweet one. So when I woke up hungry on a recent day off, with week-old celery root (aka celeriac) and a lonesome cup of spelt ...

Lacto-Fermented Curried Rainbow Carrots

Lacto-Fermented Curried Rainbow Carrots

This time of year always promises the tastiest root vegetables. After the first couple frosts, starchy vegetables like carrots and parsnips convert their starches into sugars, resulting in the sweetest roots you've eaten all year. At least this gives us something to look forward to as the days get longer and the nights get colder! If you're ...

Rosemary Roasted Roots & Crabapples

Rosemary Roasted Roots & Crabapples

Two weeks of missed farmers markets + trying to clear out our cupboards and fridge  = some very interesting meals. My motto this past week has been "You always have more food than you think you do". We have very little in the way of fresh produce, but more than enough grains, lentils, dried fruit, nuts & seeds, fermented vegetables, and ...

Smokey Chickpea, Carrot & Swiss Chard Pizza with Homemade Pizza Sauce

Smokey Chickpea, Carrot & Swiss Chard Pizza with Homemade Pizza Sauce

I think I need to eat more pizza. We've made it a couple times lately, and it's been fun playing with various toppings and flavours. Pizza is such a great blank slate, you can tailor is as much as you want to your personal preferences. It's not just about tomato sauce, cheese, and pepperoni. There are endless other possibilities to create a ...

Halloween Cupcakes with Orange & Green Natural Dyes

Halloween Cupcakes with Orange & Green Natural Dyes

Halloween is my favourite holiday. So when I was gifted a Halloween cupcake kit a few years ago, I promised myself I would make some Halloween cupcakes the next time the occasion rolled around. Fast forward to today, only about 7 years later. What can I say, life gets in the way and Halloween cupcakes have to wait. I finally figured, why wait ...

Parsley Root, Celery & Lentil Soup

Parsley Root, Celery & Lentil Soup

It's been a long time since I've made a nice batch of soup! Hot summer weather does not call for hot soups, and so understandably our stash of homemade broth just sat in our freezer neglected all summer long. But now that's it getting a bit colder out, I'm looking forward to start making hearty and warming soups again. The two vegetables I ...

Shredded Asian Slaw with Almond Ginger Sauce

Shredded Asian Slaw with Almond Ginger Sauce

If you've never tried celery root, also known as celeriac, you are missing out! It tastes similar to celery, but it has a milder, more earthy, and maybe even sweeter flavour. It's a very versatile root that I've written about before; it can be cooked, steamed, mashed, baked, roasted, pureed, or eaten raw. Did I forget anything? I've added raw cubed ...

Tempeh Cabbage Wraps with Sticky Rice

Tempeh Cabbage Wraps with Sticky Rice

Wraps are just one of those foods that people love. They're quick, they're convenient, they're portable, and they're tasty. Unfortunately though, flour wraps are often heavily processed and devoid of nutrients. I know how hard it can be to give up foods you love, even when you know they just aren't health-supportive. Even still, sometimes the ...

For those of you that may still have a late dinner party to host, or even those of you that are just exhausted and need something easy to make for ...
