Last Christmas my aunt bought me the Canadian Living cookbook called ‘The Vegetarian Collection’ and this was one of the first recipes I tried out of it. It’s vegan, gluten-free and easy to make. I only altered a few small things (like adding more sesame oil) and otherwise followed it word-for-word. It works perfectly every…

Mini Calzones (Pizza Pops)
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,…
Veggie “Burger Bowl” Salad
I’m not a huge fan of eating veggie burgers with buns because it’s too filling and gets soggy…gross. Most of the time I just cook up veggie burgers and eat them with a knife and fork, but it gets a little boring and it doesn’t really feel like a proper meal. Burger bowls are a…
Roasted Red Pepper Soup
This soup is perfect for when you’re too lazy to cook anything that takes a lot of time, and you want a healthy meal. Quick and easy roasted red pepper soup; it takes 15 minutes and has tons of flavour and nutrients. I know the list of ingredients looks long for a lazy quick-and-simple soup,…
Mozzarella Sticks
A lot of people have the notion that vegetarians always eat healthy. WRONG. We like greasy bar food just as much as the next person. I’m doing a double-shot of fried food posts because a few friends and I decided to get together for lunch and experiment frying different foods. I got this recipe from…
Vegan Green Thai Curry
A little while ago now I was browsing around on Urbanspoon at the top rated Toronto restaurants for under $10. This restaurant came up called Salad King–a funny name for a restaurant that only serves two salads, but my god, it is so good. It also got me addicted to thai curry. Since Salad King…
Homemade Soft Pretzels
Soft pretzels are one of those things that you just don’t see out on the street that much anymore. And if you do, those pretzels have probably been sitting there for a while. I made these pretzels back in the summer and they were a big, big hit. You can eat them on their own,…
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. It’s super healthy, packed with veggies and is flexible to your personal taste and spice tolerance. I looked all around…
Refried Black Beans in Burritos
I am a big fan of refried beans, but when I read the nutritional ingredients on the pre-made ones I felt like I was having a heart attack before I even ate it. Crazy amounts of sodium and fat. So I decided to make my own! Mix up these homemade refried beans in layer dips,…
Roasted Butternut Squash Soup
It seems like every time I come into my kitchen there is some form of gourd on my counter. This time, it’s butternut squash. I adapted this recipe from How to Eat, changed up a few things and it was perfect! I was surprised at how thick and creamy the soup tasted because there’s absolutely…
