Halloween is on Tuesday, so let’s celebrate with a chocolatey treat, shall we? I’ve been testing a LOT of nut-free sweet treats lately – some successful, and some very much not! The reason behind it all is that one of my lunch customers at work has a severe nut allergy, and she can’t eat sunflower […]
She’s a zesty one! This Low Sugar Key Lime Pie Green Smoothie is naturally energizing and refreshing, making it a perfectly healthy way to start the day.

This post is sponsored by Inspired Greens. All opinions are my own. 14 sleeeeeeeps! Am I the only adult that counts down to fun things in sleeps? My sister and I always used to count down to Christmas in sleeps rather than days, and I guess the habit has just stuck with me. But it’s […]
When my sister and I were growing up, one of our favourite things to do was visit my grandpa’s house and pick raspberries in the backyard. We’d each be sent out with an empty ice cream bucket, instructed to ‘pick dessert’ for that evening. Following the one-for-the-bucket-one-for-the-mouth rule (because I’ve always been big on quality […]
Alternate title 1: A bowl full of my favourite things. Alternate title 2: What I’d like to eat for my last meal. For the salad course, anyway. Alternate title 3: The salad that your summer just won’t be complete without. We’re coming up on August, and this weekend I found myself reminiscing with a friend about […]
One of my favourite things about being a blogger is the unexpected opportunities that come as a result. As I’ve mentioned in the past, I work with a bunch of remarkable people every day in my full-time gig at lululemon, and together, we’ve managed to produce some amazing work that I’m really proud of. Not only […]
Growing up and into my early 20s, I just couldn’t understand what all the hype was about hummus. I wanted to like it, but it seemed so…. basic? Bland? Underwhelming? I’ve been a long-time fan of salsa and hot sauce, so for someone who’s taste buds like to be pretty lit up by spices, hummus just […]
We’ll get to the Sesame Crusted Ahi Tuna Salad of my dreams (soon to be that of your dreams, too) in just a second. First, I’ve got an update and announcement to share. A little peek into the inner workings of my mind, you might call it. If you caught Monday’s goal check-in post, you […]
It’s time for another reader’s request recipe, and this one comes compliments of one of my long-time readers named Amanda. We’ve never met in person, but Amanda and I are kindred spirits when it comes to food because we both have hearty appetites and a special place in our hearts for a mean ahi tuna salad. […]
Yep, you read that right. Beef. But let me explain. This is a post that I’ve been thinking about writing for a couple of months now, and one that’s been sitting as a draft for nearly as long. As you’ve probably noticed, the recipes featured here on the blog align with my pescetarian diet, are heavily plant-based and […]
