Oven-Baked Mexican Quinoa Casserole
February 18, 2013
Since making the Spinach & Lemon Quinoa Bake in December, I've been inspired to cook up a quinoa casserole in the oven. I went with a Southwest/Mexican theme and was amazed at how well it came together. I have to say that I'm pretty excited by this new and easy way...

December 16, 2012
The holidays are so crazy, aren't they? From wrapping-up work projects for the end of the calendar year, to finalizing gift shopping and decorating the house, there is often little time to do anything else. Even though I had plenty of notice for a holiday get together with friends a...

December 12, 2012
The last few months at work have been crazy for me, and that's left me little time to blog and try new recipes. The good news is that I have a fair bit of time off over the holidays, and I plan on cooking and blogging up a storm. Stay...

October 7, 2012
Happy Canadian Thanksgiving everyone! I'm posting this recipe for those of you looking for a quick Thanksgiving recipe idea. The bonus is that it's healthy enough that you could get away with eating it for breakfast. Can you say win-win?
I got the idea for this recipe from a magazine years...

October 6, 2012
I totally missed-out on my Thursday and Friday Vegan MoFo posts, so rather than get back into recounting my 3-month NZ and Southeast-Asia travel adventures, I thought I'd share a new recipe with you.
As mentioned previously, I now live really close to one of Toronto's great Fresh Restaurants and find...

July 16, 2012
I'm still working my way through all my travel photos, so my posts over the next few weeks will primarily focus on current happenings (what I'm cooking at home and restaurants that I'm discovering here in Toronto). But don't worry, all the information and reviews of the things that I...

November 17, 2011
The weather has been absolutely gorgeous here in Sydney and summer is just around the corner. However, even though it was warm on Tuesday, I was in the mood for a hot soup. Does that ever happen to you?
Perhaps it was because I was feeling a little bit run-down, but...

November 15, 2011
I picked up some puffed quinoa at the health food store this weekend and decided to make a little treat with it. I have a deep and unending love for peanut butter, so that's what I went with...
Notes
The natural peanut butter that I used is not very sweet, so I...

October 28, 2011
So many amazing-looking pumpkin recipes have come out as part of the Vegan Month of Food. Are you all pumpkined-out though? I hope not, because I have this "rawsome" contribution!
This recipe combines traditional pumpkin pie and my decent discovery of raw vegan cheesecake. Even with the cashews and coconut oil,...

This is going to be a quick post as I didn't have a lot of time today. However, I still want to get a post out and keep my Vegan MoFo mojo going strong for the rest of the month!
I first came across this recipe last year and absolutely loved...

October 12, 2011
I realized today that I had two very ripe bananas that I needed to use ASAP. With the price of bananas in Sydney hovering around $13/kilo at the moment, there's no way that any banana in this house can go to waste. Being a temporary ex-pat, I have limited kitchen...

October 11, 2011
My man came home from work with severe flu symptoms yesterday. Aches, chills, sore throat, you know the deal. "No problem," I thought. "I'll just go to the freezer and pull out one of the many homemade soups I've stashed there for precisely these types of emergencies. I'm so awesome!"...

July 17, 2011
All my friends and family back home in Ottawa and Toronto have been saying how warm it's been there lately. I'll be there in a couple weeks myself and I really hope that the weather holds-up. I'm especially looking forward to those long hot summer evenings. Sydney has amazing weather...

June 20, 2011
I love making fresh soups, because other than eating veggies straight-up, I find that a homemade soup is the best way to bring-out the great flavor of fresh vegetables. Nothing is more comforting, and yet the effort to make homemade soup is pretty minimal. Plus, I'm always shocked to see...

January 5, 2011
You're probably sick of holiday sweets by now, but I made these elegant truffles over the holidays and wanted to share them with you. I actually found this recipe for Easy Decadent Truffles a few years ago and have veganized it with great success a few times now. You've got to...

November 22, 2010
Vegan MoFo #22 - I’m always on the lookout for healthy cookie recipes, and was inspired by this one that I found on About.com. I've made it a couple times now, and have modified it a bit each time.
The recipe didn't specify what kind of flour to use, but I...

October 5, 2010
This one of my favorite vegan muffin recipes. The crumbly, sugary topping makes them taste like gooey caramel apples - minus the sticky fingers and face! I suppose you could leave out the topping to make these a bit healthier, but it really adds a great taste and texture to...
