Spicy Pad Thai Kale Chips

Spicy Pad Thai Kale Chips

Currently we're on a cleaning-out-the-cupboard-and-fridge spree and therefore not creating anything super fantastic in the kitchen, so today I'm actually sharing a recipe I made last fall. Though we haven't made kale chips in a good while, I've always loved experimenting with different flavours and rarely make the same recipe twice. For this ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Lacto-Fermented Garlic Dill Pickles

Lacto-Fermented Garlic Dill Pickles

'Tis the season for preserving food. But to be honest, we're not doing that much fermenting this fall because we still have SO MANY jars of fermented vegetables from last summer! We wasted absolutely no time in munching through our favourites (pickles, sauerkraut, and kimchi) and ran out of these quite early, so despite the full fridge I couldn't ...

Dino Kale & Green Bean Pumpkin Mash

Dino Kale & Green Bean Pumpkin Mash

Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and I'm definitely looking forward to flying back to Ontario for the get-together. Not the flying part, but the get-together part. My partner's family traditionally gathers at their cottage in Quebec for Thanksgiving dinner, and this year my family (who live near Toronto) will be joining us as well. It'll be ...

Mustard Greens Stir Fry with Smoked Tempeh, Kimchi & Farro

Mustard Greens Stir Fry with Smoked Tempeh, Kimchi & Farro

Who knew there are so many different varieties of mustard greens? When you think about it, I suppose it makes sense because there's tons of varieties of pretty much any vegetable or fruit you can think of. I've tried a few types of mustard greens now; one with frilly leaves, one with flat leaves that were purple on one side, and the one in this ...

Asparagus & Portobellini Brown Rice Risotto

Asparagus & Portobellini Brown Rice Risotto

Growing up, I loved asparagus. It grew wild around where we lived, and I would often stop on hikes to munch on a spear or two. One year my parents had a genius idea. They dug up some asparagus plants that were growing nearby. Into our vegetable garden they went, and there they stayed. For years they have been producing delicious stalks for us. From ...

Mixed Mushroom & Spinach Chickpea Scramble

Mixed Mushroom & Spinach Chickpea Scramble

Chickpeas are definitely my favourite legume. I don't know what it is about them. If I had my way, they are the only legume I would ever eat. But eating the same thing all the time definitely isn't ideal, so I force myself to buy different types of legumes and I never let myself make two batches of chickpeas in a row. I make a batch of beans every ...

Buttermilk Porcini Sticky Rice Balls

Buttermilk Porcini Sticky Rice Balls

Here is yet another delicious recipe featuring leftover buttermilk from making butter. My partner and I often use butter for cooking, and at this rate I will have a whole collection of buttermilk recipes. But I'm fine with that, because I love ending up with random ingredients in my kitchen. It encourages me to experiment. (PS if you're dairy-free, ...
