Yes, another soup recipe! Clearly, I’m obsessed with soup lately. I’m sorry, I can’t help it. There’s just something so comforting about a big bowl of hot soup. I’ve been experimenting with this particular recipe for Curried Cauliflower Lentil Soup for a while now, testing it until I perfected it. Although my kids may disagree, I think I’ve come up…

The Best Meatball Subs
OK, now I don’t want to start any fights over whose meatballs subs are actually the best. You may say your Grandma’s are the best, or the ones at your favourite restaurant down the street are the best, and who am I to argue with that? All I mean when I say these are “The…
Smoothie Fun with Epicure {GIVEAWAY}
Spring is in the air, and as the weather gets warmer, I start to crave smoothies. A cold smoothie bowl is so refreshing for breakfast on a sunny morning. If we’re on the go with no time to sit down for breakfast, we can sip on smoothies on our way out the door so we can still start…
Deconstructed Minestrone Soup
I know that my last post was about soup (a very scrumptious tomato soup with grilled cheese croutons, by the way), but this one is so much more than just a soup. It’s deconstructed soup. I’ve seen a few bloggers playing around with this idea, and I absolutely love it. Food Bloggers of Canada…
Tomato Soup with Grilled Cheese Croutons
My baby turned 3 last weekend. THREE! I guess she’s really not a baby anymore, especially since she recently decided she’s done with diapers. Just like that, she switched to wearing underwear and using the potty, and hasn’t looked back. I’m thrilled to never have to change a diaper again, but also a little sad…
How to Freeze and Reheat Cooked Rice for Quick Meals
You know those evenings when you wish you could just have food magically appear on the table? I have a lot of those evenings. Sometimes I need something lightning fast to eat while rushing from work to soccer practice, or when I’m working late at the office, or when I just want to wind down…
Cranberry Gingerbread Granola
I usually make some kind of Christmas treats to give out to family and friends at Christmas. Last year, it was homemade marshmallows. Other years, I’ve done spice mixes, baking mixes, and other goodies you can find in my Homemade Holiday Gift Ideas post. This year, I felt like making something healthy but still really…
Stevia-Sweetened Pomegranate Lime Spritzer
It can be hard to find a decent sugar-free, non-alcoholic beverage to sip on over the holidays. I learned this the hard way three years ago, when I had gestational diabetes while pregnant with my daughter. (For more on that story, visit the blog I wrote: The GD Diaries) I had GD with both my sons as well,…
Cherry Tomato Santa Hats
Aren’t these Santa Hats cute? They’re really simple to make, with only 3 ingredients. Plus, they’re actually healthy, which is a nice change from all the sweets we eat over the holidays. My kids loved the fun shapes of Santa hats on top of crackers. They like cherry tomatoes anyway, so these were an instant hit….
Cranberry Coconut Blender Pie
I’ll start this off with a quote from Jack Handy (I love his Deep Thoughts): “When you die, if you get a choice between going to regular heaven or pie heaven, choose pie heaven. It might be a trick, but if it’s not, mmmmmmmm, boy.” I love pie and would happily go to pie heaven,…
