Rainy days make for soup binges. They also make for laziness, which is good because this recipe takes under 30 minutes, uses pretty basic ingredients and has tons of flavour and texture. It’s also really healthy, so throw that concept of junky comfort food out the window. This is all you’ll need when it’s looking…

Savoury Waffle Panini
I have been wanting to make these for a long, long time. The wait was worth it, because I think this could be my proudest recipe. I’m a bit of a picky sandwich eater because any form of soggy bread is my enemy. That’s why paninis are so perfect because the bread has a bit…
White Eggplant Baba Ganoush
I’ve been a vegetarian since I was 11 years old, and if there’s one thing that can really make a difference in any meal it’s a good dip or spread. You can change up flavours and textures so easily and they are generally easy to make. Baba ganoush is something that I’ve only just recently…
Butternut Squash and Quinoa Stuffed Peppers
If you are a fellow vegetarian, you can sympathize with the pains of smelling turkey around Thanksgiving. First BBQ season, now this?! Torture. So my goal is to come up with recipes that will make up for the lack of post-turkey napping. This particular recipe is my mom’s and she doesn’t eat any gluten, so…
Avocado Egg Cups
Breakfast! If you are feeling up to something a little unconventional for breakfast and want a bunch of protein, try this out. Eggs baked into avocados with cheese, sesame, salsa and spices. Be warned: the avocado takes on a smoky flavour after it’s done being cooked, so if that isn’t your thing I don’t recommend…
Naan Pesto Pizza
Just a very basic recipe that takes 10 minutes. Not a whole lot of work was put into this, just quick, fun and thought it would be worth a short post! Store-bought pizza dough has never really been my friend. I love the way it smells, and working with it is always fun, but I…
Fresh Basil Pesto
Before anything else, I would just like to officially say that I am a Workaholics addict. I can not get enough of that show and the new season is out next week so I can’t wait! Anyways, I’m trying my best to get every last bit of fresh stuff from my garden. The one thing…
Autumn Borscht (Beet Soup)
Ok well first of all, I realize my description of this blog is “Adventures of a music, food and photography lover” yet I have not mentioned music ONCE! So without further ado, this week’s musical obsession is electro-swing. I was listening to a playlist on 8 Tracks called Electro Swing #2 and it has pretty…
Homemade Tomato Sauce
Fall’s gradually rolling in and it seems the second that happens everyone’s appetite changes from light to heavy. Could be the return to school for some, maybe the fact that summer is gone for another year, but either way a salad for dinner isn’t cutting it this September. My summer harvest (I guess you could…
Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins
Well, so far I have posts for dessert, dinner and appetizers but no breakfast. So here it is! I’m not really one to cook big breakfasts in the morning unless I have lots of time, so it’s either a bagel or nothing. These muffins have been quite the life saver for many years in the…
