If you follow along, you know that I have written about rhubarb before; and as long as I can remember we had rhubarb growing on my parent’s acreage and my mom would use it to make cakes, sauces and then give the rest away. Now that I am all grown up and on my own, living in the city without a rhubarb plant, I am lucky to be one of those people that my mom gives rhubarb to! I thought a…
If you know me or have been following my blog you know two things about me: I love soup and I love spice. This roasted carrot ginger soup is packed full of flavour with the caramel roasted flavours of the carrots, fresh ginger, coconut oil and milk and spicy garam masala and Aleppo chiles. Without further ado, here’s the soup!
Hey! I’m back! I have been on a little break from actively posting since the end of summer…. and then went on a trip to Peru! Amazing experience! More about that in the future! Now I am back and ready to share recipes with you on a regular basis, starting with this Chickpea Avocado Salad! So, the story here is, I am walking down Whyte Ave in Edmonton with friends and I run into my aunt and cousin having dinner…
It’s May long weekend here in Canada and I am sitting in my tent trailer camping as I write this. Not my usual camping, I have to admit. I am in a site that has power, water and sewer. None of these services I need. We bring our own power and water and the forest provides us with a latrine or we build a latrine. But it’s May long and we went out without a reservation, so the only site…
After writing my Chews and Brews birthday post, I was taking a look at all my past posts and realized I haven’t ever posted a pizza recipe and we make pizza all the time! We love pizza, and really who doesn’t? We like making your plain pepperoni and mushroom types of pizzas but also like experimenting with different ingredients and combinations which inspired this butternut squash caramelized onion feta pizza. Also, I had to get rid of half a squash and…
I love vegetables and dip and I love chips and dip; but that dip usually doesn’t fair well with my waist line so I am always looking for new dips to make that are healthy and tasty! Enter roasted garlic beet hazelnut dip! This recipe is inspired by a beet and walnut dip that I stumbled upon in one of my many Pinterest sessions. First, I don’t really like walnuts that much; I find them bitter and dry. Do you…
I’m on a muffin kick and these Greek yogurt whole wheat blueberry muffins are one of my favourite latest creations. I have been baking muffins every weekend to add to our weekly lunch snacks and have been loving them! Every week I am trying different spices with different fruit or berries and am loving every week’s new creations! This week I tried out blueberry muffins made with greek yogurt, whole wheat flour and for some spice, cinnamon. They were great!…
Mashed parsnips aren’t the prettiest of dishes… I mean that in the nicest way I can, but really it’s a white vegetable in which in this recipe I am adding brown ingredients to… So in the end I am left with a white-ish-brown-ish bowl of mashed stuff… but they sure make a great tasting side dish for a roast beef dinner! Despite their unattractiveness, I love parsnips and I buy them all year round. They are a root vegetable that have a…
