Quiche is one of the ultimate brunch foods. It’s pretty healthy. There’s no shortage of fat (cream and cheese) and I wasn’t very light handed with the salt on this one either. That being said, each slice is packed full of protein and nutrients from the kale, mushrooms and other veg, so I’ll take it….

Gluten-Free Zucchini Chocolate Chip Muffins
I’m done with all-purpose gluten-free flour. But…didn’t you just use it in this recipe? YES, fine. I did. And you know what? Even with fresh zucchini I grew myself, loads of cinnamon, sugar and chocolate chips, that grainy, unfortunately familiar texture was still there. That doesn’t mean all gluten-free baked goods taste this way, it’s…
Super Seedy Granola
Making your own granola is surprisingly easy, fast and a huge money-saver. This recipe is very flexible to your personal tastes and takes minimal effort—just pop it in the oven and shift it around once in a while. I’ve made other granolas with pumpkin and walnuts and one with mango, but this time around I…
Flourless Banana-Oat Greek Yogurt Muffins
This is a seriously healthy muffin (besides the chocolate chips, but you gotta live a little). Only a quarter cup of coconut sugar for the entire batch. Flourless. Greek yogurt. Hemp. All good things. Not like one of those muffins that is actually a cupcake disguised as breakfast—you’re not fooling me, Starbucks. These didn’t rise…
Low-Sodium Potato Waffles
If you’re anything like me, your stomach can’t handle a sugar-overload kind of breakfast. I love pancake, waffles and french toast just as much as the next person, but I actually prefer them later in the day or I’ll probably feel like I should just crawl back into bed. These waffles give you something fun…
Paleo Blueberry Pumpkin Breakfast Bars
Breakfast is a fickle time. Some people don’t have time or desire to throw anything together in the morning. Others love it, but sometimes it can get repetitive—a variation of eggs, toast, maybe some vegetables or ham for you meat eaters out there. Muffins are good sometimes but end up being filled with more sugar…
Brown Butter Gingerbread Waffles (plus the Christmas Cookie Recipe Roundup entries)
If you feel like having the most festive Christmas morning breakfast ever, you’ve come to the right place. My boyfriend basically did all of the work on this one so this credit goes to him. I got a new waffle iron for my birthday and we bookmarked around 10 waffle posts, but this one was…
Huevos Rancheros
These aren’t your traditional huevos rancheros—you need to be anticipating a different flavour when you eat this. Fresh radish, coriander, a softer tortilla…it all adds up to a filling, colourful and healthy breakfast. This is a great breakfast to make on weekends because it takes a bit of time but it’s totally worth it. I…
Broccoli, Cheddar and Eggplant Quiche
Quick breakfasts are convenient, but sometimes putting in some extra time is worth it. Quiche is easy, cheap and low-maintenance so you can do the crossword, watch morning cartoons or sit in a morning-zombie state at your kitchen table until it’s done. I know eggplant is not really a traditional addition to quiche, but I…
Sriracha Baked Eggs in Muffin Tins
Baked eggs are a lazy chef’s dream. Seriously low-maintenance, minimal prep time, and easy to re-heat as leftovers. The scrambled egg cups are really simple and puff up, resulting in a soufflé-looking dish. The salami cups are still very easy, but the egg does pour a little bit past the “deli” slice, so just be…
