Vegetarian Spaghetti Bolognese
Spaghetti Bolognese is one of those classic dishes that is on a pretty consistent rotation at our house. So in an effort to switch it up, I decided to test out the recipe using lentils instead of ground meat. Whether you're vegetarian or just looking to increase...

Peaches are my absolute favourite summer fruit. Once they start showing up in the markets and the grocery store it’s a sure sign that summer is here! This past weekend I picked up my first basket, and while I usually like to just eat them on their own, I couldn’t...
Bruschetta
Last autumn my boyfriend and I spent a couple weeks driving around Italy in the region of Umbria (central Italy, a bit south of Tuscany / Florence). One of our favourite things to do when travelling is to experience the local flavours, and where better to do that than...
Lemon Cod en Papillote with Bok Choy and Tomatoes
The name might make this dish sound a bit fancy and complex, but actually it’s incredibly simple! En papillote refers to the way the fish is cooked, in a package made from parchment paper. The package locks in all the moisture, allowing you to get a beautifully moist...
Cinnamon Bun Z’Oats
Growing up, it was the ultimate indulgence when I would go into Toronto (the “big city”) on the train with my dad and we would pick up a massive cinnamon bun from the Cinnabon in the train station. Actually, my love affair with cinnamon buns runs pretty deep - one of...
