I love baking with coconut flour. Coconut flour is loaded with fibre and heart-healthy fat. Plus, it’s gluten-free, nut-free, and grain-free, so pretty much everyone can enjoy it!

Easy Homemade Baked Falafels
Falafels and I haven’t always been friends. Even when I was a vegetarian, I couldn’t get into falafels. Every one I tried was often too dry or tasted like cardboard. Sadly, it was looking a lot like the falafel train was going to leave without me. I wanted to like falafels, I really did. They’re…
Super Simple Garlic Hummus
I believe that a successful study session (or work session or any time of the day for that matter) always involves snacks. And the best snacks are the ones that are just as healthy as they are delicious! Cue this super simple garlic hummus.
Easy Peasy Chia Pudding
It’s been two weeks since I’ve been back at school, and I’m starting to settle back into the routine of eat, sleep, read textbooks, repeat. Part of that routine though definitely includes enjoying a big jar of easy peasy chia pudding; sometimes in class, sometimes on the bus. I always get odd looks when I bring out the chia pudding jar, but hey — this girl knows the importance of a nutritious breakfast.
Creamy Parsnip Soup
Things that aren’t so great about winter: the cold. Things that can easily remedy that: cozy sweaters, fuzzy socks, and hot soup. Hot, creamy parsnip soup. This soup is so very luscious. Dried thyme and bay leaves, along with sautéed garlic and onion make this soup extra flavourful.

Lucky for your salads, sandwiches, and raw veggies, this avocado basil dressing is just the thing that’s needed to take them to that next flavour level….

I love mushrooms, and for good reason. Not only are they delicious and come in many varieties, they’re incredibly good for our health. Today on the blog, I’m sharing my recipe for stuffed cremini mushrooms. They’re the perfect party appetizer or side dish.
Homemade Coconut Milk
When I was 10, my family and I travelled west to Thunder Bay for a reunion. One of the activities our hosts had planned was a trip to Old Fort William. There, I got the chance to milk a cow, and it was honestly one the neatest things I’ve done. Today though, we’re going to…
