If you’re a regular reader of this blog, you know how much I love Yotam Ottolenghi’s recipes. I’m not a vegetarian, but his unique take on vegetables is very inspiring. I knew I wanted to try this Slow-Cooked Chickpeas on Toast with Poached Egg from his book […]
When I first worked on this recipe I did so because I had an overwhelming amount of leftover cabbage I did not know what to do with. It then occurred to me how rarely I eat cabbage, why is that? It’s a controversial vegetable, apparently, […]
The holidays are here! Cue the Christmas movie marathon. Ugh I’m so excited. I watch the same ones every year, because unlike my adventurous eating tendencies, when it comes to Christmas movies I want the same old ones over and over again. It’s comforting, blissful […]
Adding dimension and depth of flavor to a dish typically takes hours of prepping and cooking, and no home cook is willing to put that much effort into a meal at the end of a long day. That’s precisely why I love taking some shortcuts […]
Is everyone doing okay after the Red TV drop? The ATW short film?? Oh man, it was an intense weekend for me, I’m slowly recovering. Oh wait, the I Bet You Think About Me video? A masterpiece. Nothing New has to be my top favorite […]
Inspired by a wonderful trip to Mexico and those insanely good Trader Joe’s hash browns, this has Hash Brown Avocado Toast instantly become my favorite breakfast. It’s got flavor, texture, heat, and despite being a few components and a tiny bit of work, it’s nothing […]
If you’ve never heard of gremolata before, it’s an Italian condiment made of parsley, lemon zest, and garlic. It’s bold, bright, fresh, and it really livens up any meal. It’s great on salmon and meats, but we’re using it as sauce for our fabulous bowl. […]
Just an easy way to fancy up your avo toast. I’m all about healthy fats and I love a big, filling breakfast – specially before hitting the gym. A big fat avo toast has everything I need: good fat, it’s quick and easy, it’s healthy, […]
I love tomato confit. It’s probably my favorite way to eat cherry tomatoes, but also it’s a great approach to cooking, since it’s much less active than sautéing and it’s easily scalable. It goes great with pasta, making it a wonderful alternative to a weeknight […]
So apparently eggplant is boring and weird, and falls under the “if it tastes bad, it must be good for you” food group. Um, okay I see where you’re coming from, but have you tried Roasted Eggplant with Tahini Sauce? So.. I kinda beg to […]
I won’t take credit for this one. This Sticky Cinnamon Fig & Yoghurt Bowl is a Jamie Oliver recipe. I know we’re heading into summer and this is an “autumnal recipe” blah blah, but I can’t wait until fall to post this one, people!! Figs […]
A version of this recipe was first spotted on the glorious Donna Hay website. I just love Donna Hay. The photography! And… the photography!! ugh, stunning. But let’s talk about the flavours for a minute. We’ve been stuck in a wintery pandemic for a while […]
