Creamed Greens with Lemon-Ginger Cashew Cream Sauce (dairy-free)

Creamed Greens with Lemon-Ginger Cashew Cream Sauce (dairy-free)

One of my favourite parts about spring is, of course, the joyful return of fresh, local and organic produce. From arugula to spinach to nettles, greens of all kinds are always at the top of my shopping list. Enjoy them in salads, in sandwiches, in stir-fries and even smoothies. They are delicious fresh (and that’s often […]

Try Teff (+a recipe for gluten-free Blueberry-Lemon Teff Porridge)

This week I’m introducing you to teff, a gluten-free wonder grain. According to the Whole Grains Council, teff is the “only fully-domesticated member of the genus Eragrostis (lovegrass)” [1].

Big Protein Beet & Quinoa Salad (vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free)

Sprouted Lentil Hummus (gluten-free, grain-free, dairy-free, vegan)

Sprouted Lentil Hummus (gluten-free, grain-free, dairy-free, vegan)

One of the attendees at my Double Duty Dinners cooking workshop back in April said that I talk about texture a lot in my cooking demos. When I paused to think about that, I realized she was totally right! For me, it’s all about a rustic texture too, think crunchy, crispy, thick, chunky foods. Or […]

Lazy Girl’s Ginger Lemonade

Lazy Girl's Ginger Lemonade

This quintessential summer bevvy is a bit like me: refreshing, tart and spicy. Okay, probably more tart than anything! There’s nothing that seems to quench the thirst better than lemonade on a hot summer day, am I right? Except maybe a frosty cold b-e-e-r, but we’ll save that for another day. I’ve had homemade lemonade […]
