    Spiced Sweet Potato Bread + Brown Sugar Icing (Vegan)

    December 11, 2019

    The decade is almost over guys! I know everyone’s posting retrospective photos, talking about goals for the next decade, and basically just wondering how it passed so quickly. Me? I’m honestly not too concerned about it. I mean, it’s exciting to be starting a new global chapter for sure. I guess I’m just not so into focusing on new year’s (or in this case new decade’s) resolutions as if that’s the only time to make big life decisions. I sort of prefer to make them on a daily basis. Besides, I’ve never been the greatest at sticking to arbitrary resolutions set out of obligation. I think if something matters to…

    Easy Pumpkin Vegetable Curry (Vegan+GF)

    November 8, 2019

    Time for a cozy veggie curry, sound good? So one of my favorite questions that I get asked since going plant-based is if my family is also plant-based. Lol, now that’s a funny joke. (JK, I lied. My favorite question will forever be “where do you get your protein” ;P ) In case you missed the sarcasm, no they’re not at ALL plant-based. In fact, I get a lot of crap from each of them on a regular basis. I mean, it’s all good fun but they definitely like to tease me and you know what, I have no problem teasing right back. Besides, the way I see it ->…

    Homemade Maple Pecan “Larabars” (Vegan+GF)

    November 5, 2019

    Guys, I don’t know if you knew this but Larabar addiction is a thing. Have you ever tried the cookie dough one? Omg, it’s mon-ay hon-ay! Also something you may not have noticed, I’m a huuuuuuuuge fan of cookie dough. I think I’m getting old though because I’ve noticed more and more that I’m super sensitive to eating too much sugary/fatty sweets. I mean, it goes without saying that eating poorly is gonna make you feel like crap, that’s obvious. It’s just that I remember being a kid and seemingly being able to eat endless amounts of sweets with no repercussions. Maybe it’s just my tastes changing, dunno. Anyway, that’s…

    “Cheesy” Polenta Covered Mexican Tamale Pie (Vegan+GF)

    September 11, 2019

    I think there will always be something a little bit comical about Mexican food to me. Years ago when I first started blogging I was still living in the southern part of Chile with my family. I’ll never forget my assumptions of what it would be like before I’d ever been there. You see, me being a naive North American I just assumed everything south of Texas would be the land of great Mexican food. Well, news flash to me, it’s not. In fact, the area we were living in had way more European style cuisine than just about anything else. However the Chileans, of course, have their own style…

    So um, it’s been a long time since I’ve posted regularly. Yep, it’s been a minute. I realize that some life updates are due because I’ve really only been active on Instagram this Summer. (If you’re just here for the recipe just scroll right on down. I promise I won’t get offended.) Eh hem, well, I decided it was a good idea to get some social interaction this season. Any bloggers out there probably understand the need for this, lol. Anyway, I’ve been working at a local restaurant in case you missed that. Also, since the town I live in is kind of a Summer tourist destination, it gets pretty…

    If I ever run out of new ways to reinvent the chocolate chip cookie I’ll probably have to stop blogging all together. Like “Let’s pack it up guys my work’s done here.” But seriously, these are gonna be a popular addition to my chocolate chip cookie recipe collection. If you haven’t noticed I’ve created a few. Lol.🍪🍪🍪🍪 This is one if f those times where I had a random idea that I just needed to make as soon as possible. You know, like those great ideas you get in the middle of the night or in the shower.

    Sweet Hot Mustard Grilled Tofu Satay (Vegan+GF)

    June 7, 2019

    Guys, can you believe grill season is nearly upon us???? Well I certainly can’t. I had to do a double take this morning when I checked my calendar and realized we’re halfway through the year already. I don’t know about you but I think this is gonna be an awesome Summer and I’m excited!   Everyone knows that no Summer would be complete without some great grill recipes and that’s where this one comes in. Today I’m doing something I haven’t done in a while, teaming up with a great brand. This recipe gets it’s popping flavors from Maille Mustard, which is basically your grill best friend. I specifically used…

  • So it's no secret that the saddest day of the year is December 26th. I know, I'm totally ruining the magic of the season by thinking about it already. Here's the thing, I've decided that maybe if I start anticipating the day ahead of time I can try to make it a little less sad.

These sweet crumbly muffins, I feel like they’re just the answer you need for all that nog you’re probably gonna have leftover in your fridge. I'm obviously referring to almond nog for me but whatever kind you've got will work here. (Did you know they make so many kinds these day? Coconut, soy, almond....) I mean, if you share any of my enthusiasm for the holidays then maybe you’ll understand when I say how downright depressing it is for me to have anything like that around more than a few days after the season ends. Well, and if you aren’t a fan of nog in the first place then maybe you can at least try to imagine feeling that way. Like I said, it’s depressing.

  • The 12 day countdown is here! My goodness is the season flying by. At least the season has been everything I love this year. Our snow arrived just on time to ensure we'll at least have some white on Christmas day. Also, I've been listening to Christmas playlists on repeat. Oh, and I've been loving the local lights and decor. The CDA resort puts up a stunning display every year that draws people from all over and the surrounding businesses are getting all festive as well. I've been down to the resort twice already. 😍✨ Over the next week and a half the streets and stores will be filled with last-minute shoppers trying to finish their lists. If you're anything like me you at least have a bunch of wrapping to finish (I definitely do right now). Anyway, I just wanted to say that I hope you're having an amazing season. Don't forget to enjoy as many moments of it as you can and step back from all the chaos to just be with friends and family.

I think if something matters to you you’ll stick with it and go for it regardless of how long it takes you to get there or if it’s written on some list. Life has a way of happening how it wants to anyway, so planning it so intently is kind of pointless.

I'm just so excited we've finally got some snow on the ground. It's a winter wonderland outside. ❄️😍🌨️
  • So there’s a time and a place for all things pumpkin this time of year, but if I’m being honest I prefer using sweet potatoes in baking and cooking. It’s a little but sweeter, it’s much easier to prepare from scratch, and it adds amazing texture to your baked goods.

I had a bunch of leftover sweet potatoes after Thanksgiving was over this year so, me being me, that meant baking time. If you’ve never tried a sweet potato bread before, honey, you are missing out. I love adding pecans as well but it you prefer to keep it simple they’re optional. The brown sugar glaze is a must though. It’s not you’re typical icing but it’s simple and it compliments this bread really well.

  • So it's almost mid-December my friends, holy jingle bells, how did that happen?!?! If you haven't gotten into the kitchen to make something festive yet, what are you doing with your life? I mean, it's Christmas cookie crunch-time, people!!! I love making the traditional simple things like sugar cookies and fudge, but I also like to make some fancier things too. Obviously gingerbread houses are a must and then these homemade caramels are something I like to make during the season as well. They're require a little more patience but they're a crowd favorite and make a perfect handmade gift.

  • Comfort food time! So when I was growing up my family's Christmas Eve tradition was always to get together with grandparents and cousins and have chili for dinner. It sort of changed at some point as me and my siblings got older which is really sad. However, I still find myself thinking of chili as a perfect holiday season meal. 
My favorite variation of chili is one my mom used to make with a little bit of Mexican flair. I sort of switched things up from her recipe (sorry mom but I left out the chicken 😜). It's amazing with some homemade cornbread and lots of cilantro of course.

  • Okay, so I haven't even started my Christmas shopping and the countdown to Christmas is ticking away. Yikes! Please tell me I'm not the only busy person that isn't on top of things this season.

When it comes down to those really difficult to buy for people, I sometimes prefer to make gifts myself. Even if a store-bought gift might be more convenient and cheaper, a handmade creation is always going to have way more gift value. Besides, when you take the time to make gifts you have the ability to tailor them specifically to the friends and loved ones in your life.

Anyway, these hot cocoa mixes are not really a new idea, they've been done a billion times. I was just hoping these flavor combinations might inspire you to think outside the box and create even more unique cocoa mixes. These are thoughtful, fairly inexpensive, and not to mention super aesthetic!

  • For some reason I find it so much less fun to post savory things during the month of December. Oh yeah, that's because all I want to do is share Christmas cookies! Of course that's not very practical so here's something savory.

So traditional Mexican tacos are always delicious, but if you're ever in the mood for some fusion these Asian inspired tacos are a fun way to change things up!
