This summer I went to Boston for a work conference, and as is always the case when I travel to the US, I made a point of taking a trip to Whole Foods. There were two reasons for this. The first was to stock my hotel mini fridge with some healthy eats for the couple […]
You guys aren’t tired of pumpkin yet, right? Good. Because I can’t finish off the month of October without sharing these no-bake Pumpkin Pie Spice Trail Mix Bars. That’s right – no bake, minimal effort, stir-it-all-together-in-a-bowl-and-smush-it-in-a-dish-to-chill minimal effort. Which pretty much means they’re a must-make, right? When it comes to bars, I like mine to […]
You say pe-cahhhn, I say peeee-can. It doesn’t really matter how you say it, because your mouth will be too full of these little morsels of goodness to speak. Fall always reminds me of the holiday cookie baking memories of my childhood, and in our house, I was definitely guilty of smuggling cookie dough out […]
For as long as I can remember, my younger sister and I have always been responsible for making our school lunches. It was something my mum established as a norm for us growing up – a non-negotiable. To this day, I’ve always been more of a lunch packer than someone who eats out. You might […]
Healthy, delicious and perfect for fall, these Gluten-Free Apple Pie Oatmeal Snack Bars are ideal for snacking on the go, breakfast, or dessert. They’re also a cleaner version when compared to many store-bought bars. Whip up a big batch and you’ll be set for the week! When I was little, my parents raised my sister […]
When I was a kid, one of my favourite things to do when friends came over was baking. We’d make cookies, cupcakes, and birthday cakes, starting in my Easy Bake Oven and finally graduating to the real regular-sized oven in our kitchen. I could make Betty Crocker Super Moist delights with my eyes closed, and […]
I knoowwwwww it’s summer and it’s already hot enough outside, but this one’s SO worth switching on the stove for, I promise. Recently I was talking to a new friend about what it was like when my family and I lived in the Middle East. Being a major foodie now, some of our first meals in […]
Nutella lovers, this one’s for you! There’s been a ton of protein bite experimentation going on over here these days, and without fail, the ones my recipe testers rate the highest always have chocolate involved. (I can’t imagine why? ?) While Nutella wasn’t something that ever made its way into my house as a kid due […]
Another super simple and oh-so-unbelievably-delicious protein bite recipe comin’ atchaaaaaa. If you were to spend some time in my kitchen, you’d soon notice that veggies seldom go uneaten. Food waste is one of my biggest pet peeves, and having lived in a part of the world where extreme poverty is a very real problem, it’s […]
While I was growing up, we didn’t keep a whole lot of chocolate in our household. This wasn’t because my parents were super healthy eaters, but because my mum is allergic to caffeine (and therefore chocolate) and nuts. There were two times of year however, where plenty of chocolate made its way in. These occasions […]
