On the eve of my family’s summer vacation, I felt frantic and rushed. I wanted to feed my family a healthy meal but I just didn’t have the ingredients or the inspiration to pull something together. We had slowly been emptying our fridge, preparing to be gone for the following week. Then I remembered reading […]
This recipe is another of my mom’s. She’s been cooking and baking gluten free for much longer than I have, and although I’m sure you could find a standard choux pastry recipe made in these proportions; she is the one in my world who pondered and then attempted creating a gluten free version. I grew up eating “cream puffs” a […]
I used to shop at an organic market in Vancouver called Caper’s. Along with lovely, seasonal produce and natural home and personal products, I would often pick up lunch from their loaded salad bar. Pickled beets, hard boiled eggs, shredded carrots, crumbled feta, nuts, seeds and so many greens… It was a compostable bowl of […]
There are few things more frustrating to a parent than placing a bowl or plate of homemade food in front of your darling little preschoolers, only to have them take one look at it, and turn up their noses in disgust! (Actually, having them throw it on the floor in disgust is definitely more frustrating!!) On some days, it’s enough to bring a mommy to […]
I love the flavor of a classic Caesar salad. The bright flavors of lemon and garlic, wake up my taste buds, and I love the crisp crunch from the croutons.

But I still like eating veggies with dip. Frankly, I can’t imagine crunching into a crisp broccoli floret, or stringy celery stick without it. For a […]
One year on the gluten free path feels like a major milestone! Last January, I made the resolve to switch to a gluten free diet for the sake of my health (and to find relief from a myriad of symptoms). By February (it took me a month to prepare myself!) I was ready to take […]
We have been spoiled with warm weather for the last week or so… which was why it was so shocking to walk out the door this morning to an unexpected blast of frigid winter air. This is the type of weather that requires something to warm a person up from the inside out, and this […]
Fermenting is something I have on my ‘to do’ list for 2014. I came across this recipe from Larissa over at Love and Green Juice, and figured this was a really simple way to begin my fermenting journey. (Larissa has a lovely blog; you should take a peak at what else she’s been up to!) The recipe suggested […]
