Some nights you just want an easy dinner that your kid and partner would eat. My criteria is something with protein and veggies. My current go-to is pasta because it is super easy and I know my kid would eat it. You can also find pasta that is loaded with other ingredients like spinach powder…

Bulgogi Lentils
I love trying out meals with a twist and having the need to eat healthier, cleaner, and more sustainable has made me consider adding more plant protein to my diet. Occasionally, I would cook beef bulgogi, a Korean beef dish. I love it because of the subtle sweet soy sauce taste to the beef. I…
Cumin Lamb Noodles
We have become addicted to cumin in my household and use it on chicken, roasted veggies and also in this dish. Lamb and cumin work so wonderfully together. Cumin brings out the meaty game-y flavours of the lamb. To make this dish, prepare the lamb by cutting it into cubes. Finely mince 4-5 cloves of…
Herb Infused Butter Turkey
Turkey can often be dry and bland if done incorrectly. But if you do it right, it is one of the most delicious dishes you can serve for dinner. This year I wanted to make some turkey, but I knew that it would take a couple of days to prepare. I normally buy a frozen…
Tomato, Zucchini, and Caramelized Onion Galette
This summer we had tons of tomatoes and we started not to know what to do with them. I decided to make an easy Tomato, Zucchini and Onion Galette. Galettes are very versatile, and you can substitute other vegetables and cheese to this dish. Begin by frosting the prepackaged puff pastry according to instructions on…

Bitter Melon and Egg
Bitter melon is a vegetable that you love or hate. I remember having it as a kid and not entirely loving the bitterness. My sisters and I would dare each other to eat the bitter gourd and see who ate the most. Over time, the bitterness grew on me and I would tolerate dishes that…
Tofu Nuggets
Lately I have been following a lot of vegetarian/vegan youtubers. This recipe was really interesting as you had to freeze tofu and defrost it to get it to a texture that resembles meat. Because tofu comes sealed it is safe to freeze, defrost and freeze again. To get the peel apart texture of vegan meat,…
Eggplant Unagi
The other day I had went to a poke bowl party and I decided I wanted to make Unagi made out of eggplant. It turned out really good and we have made this recipe again since then. It is a great side dish and works really well with rice. To make this recipe, you will…
Vegan Cheese-y Pasta Sauce
