This past year, I had the pleasure of writing and producing recipes for the World of Wanderlust blog – a blog for everything travel started by my friend Brooke. These recipes were created to share my love for cooking internationally-known and loved cuisine. The following are my favourite recipes…and I know you guys will love […]

Hey friends! So I’ve finally moved into my new apartment in North Vancouver and I’m feeling a little more settled. I’ve always being a creature of habit, but I’m really am starting to learn that home is where the heart is. I am also learning that having 4 spatulas is not important, and that lugging […]

Today is St. Patrick’s Day! What a better way to celebrate than with green soup – am I right?! This soup is actually amazing though, it’s my own little “pot of gold”. Packed with dark leafy greens, grounding potatoes and warming spices, it’s been a lifesaver this past Winter. I think it’s the best addition […]

This Chickpea & Kale Hash has been a staple for my lazy meals this month. I love the fact that it’s bursting with flavour and goodness, but only takes 15 minutes to throw together!
