Read MoreYou can’t go wrong with big spicy meatballs…especially when you start to over do it on the turkey and potatoes. The Pueblo Black Garlic hot sauce, with flavours of Scotch Bonnet, create a complex spicy flavour which gives these balls some punch. I also became obsessed with couscous after having it soaked in this zesty roasted red pepper sauce. Couscous walks that perfect line between rice and pasta - similar to an orzo pasta.
Read MoreI don’t know about you but cranberry sauce has never had much appeal to me…before now. As per usual adding a little spice adds a nice layer of complexity to almost any dish. Go ahead and toss out that can of cranberry sauce that’s been in your pantry for 10 years, you will never use canned again! I used this sauce for my Chipotle Berry Pork Loin and the addition of apples to the cranberry sauce really complimented the pork dish.
Read MoreA spicy take on a classic comfort food. I made the mistake of adding three spicy Thai Chili’s to my first batch, and it was much too hot for me to consume. On the second try I scaled it back to one pepper, and it had the perfect amount of kick. You can also omit the pepper altogether if you are just looking for a savoury and herby flavour.
Read MoreI have officially perfected my butternut squash soup! The robust selection of my favourite harvest vegetables adds vibrant flavours and colours to this dish. The addition of coconut milk smooths out the soup to the perfect creaminess. By topping with crispy kale and bacon, you get a contrast in textures to really take this dish over the top.
Read MoreA little taste of the SaskTel Instagram Live Online Cooking Class recipe I debuted this past summer. This cheesy, citrusy, and juicy recipe has quickly become one of my favourite summer classics. The peaches and feta mixed into burger keep it moist and bursting with flavour. Pair that patty with creamy brie and balsamic peaches your mouth won’t know what hit it. Pictues by @nomadicstories.

Read MoreTurkey burgers are a nice alternative to beef, which tends to make me feel really full and a little sluggish.

Read MorePower Pucks! These little guys have no processed sugar or flour - which means they are a little denser than your traditional muffin. But the coconut and oats make a delightful moist and chewy texture that will keep you satisfied until lunch. Also chocolate makes everything amazing.
