Tabouleh is such a nutritious versatile dish. It’s great as a side, a perfect addition to salad, and a super star on it’s own. Traditionally, tabouleh is made with cracked wheat. This version uses quinoa instead, making it gluten-free and high in protein.

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…
Brown Rice Onigiri
One of my best and long-time friends is Japanese. When we were little, we’d often share parts of our lunches (doesn’t every grade school kid?). Sometimes, her mom would pack her onigiri, which are seaweed-wrapped balls or triangles of white rice filled with meat or vegetables. I always got so excited when she offered me…
Chickpea Sweet Potato Curry
Being sick could not have come at a better time. I had been feeling under the weather all last week, but as soon as my school break started, my body gave up and decided not to work anymore. My voice is pretty much non-existant. Better now then when my courses were running, right?

Swiss Chard and Caramelized Onion Quiche

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…
