Power 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.
Read MoreA Spicy twist on a classic - Mexican Lasagna! The best thing about this dish is that it’s so versatile. With almost the same ingredients you can make a vegetarian lasagna, meat lasagna, mexi dip, or stuffed peppers! Change up your garnishes between guacamole, sliced avocado, fresh salsa, and cilantro and you’ll never be bored of this recipe.
Read MoreThe easiest, the tastiest, the best! Once you enjoy the simple beauty of broccoli crack you’ll never go back. Pair this side dish with almost any protein and you have a quick and easy meal. This dish also saves really well, like you will actually look forward to your leftovers.
Read MoreSweet and spicy! This chili cook-off winning recipe came to me in a fever dream vision in the middle of the night - what could I do to make this chili stand out? Maple, peach, and bourbon was the combination I came to. I had no idea if it would work or taste good (spoiler alert - it worked and tasted amazing!). So if you’re tired of the same old chili flavour, spice up your life and try something a little more daring.
Read MoreSalmon is one of my favourite things to eat, it’s full of healthy fat, lean protein, and it tastes amazing. But making the same oven baked lemon herb salmon dish every week can get a little boring. This dish infuses some Thai inspired flavours with a spicy, creamy coconut sauce paired with zesty and fresh lemon ginger cauliflower rice.
Read MoreAfter asking around on Instagram, the community came together to vote Saskatoon Berry Lemon Scones as the ULTIMATE scone flavour. So I’ve uploaded the recipe me and my Mom used to make them over the winter holidays. I will include notes in the recipe for the other scone flavours we tried including: Blueberry, blackberry, maple bacon, and apple cinnamon.
Read MoreOnce you are a few weeks or maybe months into the keto diet and the thrill of cheese and bacon is starting to wear off (unlikely!), you may find yourself craving some fresh greens. Who would have thought? It turns out there is tasty ways to get your greens, fat, and protein in all at once! I like this added touch of halloumi (grilling cheese) to bring a unique texture to a classic power bowl while adding the perfect fat booster!
Read MoreThis meal is what I would define as a go-to keto recipe. The best part - is the versatility of this dish. Sick of Brussel Sprouts? Sub them out for asparagus and baby tomatoes! Turns out almost any low-carb/sugar veggies pan-fried with bacon and cheese is delicious. Not a fan of brie cheese? Use a cream cheese or shredded cheddar.
Read MoreSome low carb twists on a classic recipe: sub out the baguette for zucchini and you can still enjoy warm ,fresh bruschetta! While Caesar salad may get a little stale, switching out romaine for kale keeps things interesting - especially when topped with freshly made bacon bits.
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 MoreA little more indulgent than my usual muffin recipe - but worth every extra calorie when the occasion calls for it! Lemon raspberry is one of my favourite dessert flavours - tangy, sweet, and citrusy fresh, and with that little blast of green zucchini these babies are moist and fluffy.
Read MoreThere’s nothing better than the taste of the Mediterranean - especially in this plate format where you get a variety of textures and flavours in every bite. Crunchy pita chips, salty olives, smooth hummus, crumbly feta, creamy tzatziki, and crispy chickpeas - not to mention you’re getting your greens in! What more could you want?
Read MoreI loooove fish tacos, but sometimes I like to skip the carbs. Keep it light with these lettuce taco shells and flavourful with a bright beet salsa and creamy guacamole.
Read MoreIf fish isn’t your jam, try out these ground pork lettuce tacos…or ground beef or turkey if you prefer! These babies are easy and tasty no matter what kind of protein you are feeling!
Read MoreGrilling season isn’t over until there is snow on the ground - IMO. But sadly I don’t have a bbq, so it’s a grilling pan for me when making this delicious burger bowl. Experience a twist on a classic - and opt for the veggie packed version of a burger.
Read MoreGardens are being dug up and thus my favourite cooking season is upon us - soup season (aka fall).

This recipe can be easily adjusted to include/remove or increase/decrease most vegetables…and you will see a few variations on this recipe coming this fall.
Read MoreThis recipe is one I make quite frequently, so I am always changing it and (usually) improving it. Flavour had been my focus for a long time, now I’m focusing on improving the texture. Check out this post for my latest two updates Zucchini Lasagna 2.0 and 3.0!
Read MoreIt’s still summer right? Hold onto those last few days of grilling and pair a perfectly grilled souvlaki burger with a crunchy Greek salad. Get those veggies in without sacrificing the taste of summer.
Read MoreIf you love the fresh taste of Caprese Salad, then you will love it in panini form! This is basically what I like to call, a grown up grilled cheese - it still has all of the fundamental requirements (bread and cheese) with some added Italian flavour.
Read MoreIf you are an avid gardener - or you have a sweet garden connection - then you are probably rolling in your zucchini harvest right about now. After exhausting zucchini as an ingredient in savoury dishes, I had to expand my horizons into some sweet baking that’s healthy-ish so you can pass it off as breakfast or a quick snack!
