The first recipe for 12 Days of Pueblo is here - using one of my favourite flavours - Coffee & Cacao! A unique and pleasing combination that adds a little spice to any dish. In this case, I added it to every step of the recipe - the roasted pecans, the maple balsamic dressing, and the dipping sauce! The hints of coffee were also amplified by adding ground coffee to the pecan coating for the chicken breast.
Read MoreA fun fresh fall recipe straight from one of my online cooking classes. This recipe was created with vegetarians in mind - with an option to add bacon for those who can’t go without meat. Everyone who participated was pleasantly surprised by how filling, tasty, and satisfying the veggie loaded recipe was. Not to mention the beautiful fall colours in the finished dish.
Read MoreAll the bright fall vegetables you can get your hands on blended together with fresh ginger and garlic to make a smooth, sweet, and spicy soup.
Pan Fried Yam is a super tasty twist on pasta or rice. It’s a little bit sweet and crispy when cooked on a cast iron pan, which pairs nicely with a creamy Alfredo sauce. Omit the bacon and you have a meat free dish that is still seriously satisfying (yay butter!).
Read MoreGetting cozy with a plate full of pasta is the ultimate comfort food. But if feeling sluggish and carbed up isn’t your fave feeling (I can’t handle it), then switch out your regular noodles for an alternative - I used cauliflower noodles. Other options include: lentil based pasta, or utilizing a spaghetti squash or zucchini to make your own noodles.
Read MoreEveryone loves zaaa…and what I love even more is not feeling like garbage after eating it. Which is why making a cauliflower crust is a simple and healthy substitute. You can use this crust recipe and switch up the toppings every time to keep this recipe fresh (but it’s hard to beat fig and bacon).
Read MoreOk so this looks hard, but it’s really not and you will look like a fancy bitch if you make it. It’s crazy how gourmet a finely cooked salmon can taste. I make a tinfoil packet for the salmon and butter to keep it moist.
Read MoreGuilty pleasure meal made a little less guilty with almond flour breading for the strips and baked yam fries instead of grease submerged potato strings!
Read MoreThis bowl is as big of a mouthful as the name.
Read MoreA meat-free option for a classic meal. Be warned - it will taste nothing like a burger - but it’s still really good. And the cheese buns can be repurposed with a bacon and egg for breakfast the next day.
Read MoreFresh and light salad - but the fish is cooked in butter so you don’t feel sad!
