Sauce, cheese and veggies all folded up in dough and baked in your oven…it’s essentially a big ball of homemade pizza. Life is good. Pizza pops are one of my guilty pleasures. I could just demolish a box of those no problem, but they aren’t all too good for you. When you make them yourself,…

Spicy Udon Noodle Soup
With winter coming up (way too quickly) what better meal to warm you up than a spicy soup? Udon soup has these thick delicious noodles that absorb flavour and make for a great, filling meal.
