One of the tips we’ve all heard when it comes to keeping our grocery spending under control is never to shop hungry or without a plan. I have to say that 9 times out of 10, I practice that. But sometimes I find myself needing to make a quick stop in at the grocery store […]
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 […]
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 […]
When it comes to summer fruits, peaches have always been one of my favourites. My mum grew up in Windsor ON, so for most of my childhood summers, we flew from Edmonton AB (or our later home in the Middle East) to visit her family. With Essex County being a region known for peach production, […]
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 […]
That’s quite the mouthful of a recipe name, isn’t it? Trust me – this is a gooooood one. I know what you’re thinking. “Whaaat?!” A Sunday post? Ange never posts on Sundays!” I know, I know! But if we’re friends on Instagram, you’ve probably seen me post smoothies and snacks every Sunday for a looooong time, […]
This is hands-down one of the most popular smoothies that I get asked about, and that I’ve heard from so many friends is one of their favourites on the blog. Lemon Meringue Pie was always a favourite dessert of mine as a kid, and I remember my Gran would always make them for special occasions. […]
There’s no doubt that cauliflower is having a moment, and I’m certainly not complaining. As a kid, I remember only ever being served it in boiled form, and only eating it because my sister and I would smother it in cheese sauce first. It was more of a “would you like some cauliflower with your cheese” […]
I don’t know many people who don’t like snacks. Talking about snacks, making snacks, eating snacks, thinking about snacks… you can’t even say the word ‘snack’ without a little smile. But let’s face it – just like with meals, it’s easy to fall into ruts and lose inspiration. Recently a reader sent me an email, asking if […]
