Fall is officially here, the leaves have turned and lay scattered across the ground, and the mornings are cool and brisk. At least here in Montreal. And every year, with the arrival of the cooler weather comes my desire to light the oven and bake sweet treats.

Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
You know those giant chewy oatmeal cookies you get from coffee shops (and high school cafeterias)? Well, these are their baby cousins. Baby, only because I make them much smaller. Because whether they’re big or small, I’m still going to eat more than one, so it’s just healthier this way…
Coconut Nectarine Pops
The temperatures are rising, and no, its not raining men. But, if you’re anything like me, cold treats are welcome anytime of the day. Ice cream for breakfast? Don’t mind if I do… Sure, a smoothie would be healthier, but when it’s this hot, does it really matter? Well, I guess it does, otherwise I…
DIY Easy Hummus
DIY Easy Hummus Vegan • Gluten-Free • Sugar-Free Part of my goal for this year was to share more easy, plant-based recipes with you guys. Things that I turn to on a daily and weekly basis, recipes that are staples in my diet. It would be wrong to exclude hummus from that list. With just…
Rainbow Rolls
2018 you guys! I’m in shock! Not really sure where 2017 went, but at least I can say it rocked. So what are you looking forward to this year? Any intentions? Did you know the top two New Year’s resolutions are to lose weight, and be better person? Well… this recipe can’t make you a…

Chocolate Peanut Butter Rice Squares
I feel like its been a while since I’ve posted something sweet… Allow me to break that silence with these – totally SWOON worthy – chocolate peanut butter rice squares. Remember the rice crispy squares you ate as a kid? Well they just got a makeover… Plus, these are vegan! With only 5-ingredients! No marshmallows…
Chipotle (Blender) Salsa
As iconic as chips and guacamole are for a night of drinks with friends, chips and salsa are a close second. They’re budget friendly and a snap to prepare. This recipe is so simple it barely requires an introduction or post, but let me tell you this. This beats any jarred salsa hands down. Its…
Green Reboot
Too much partying this weekend? I know I did… so in case your body needs a reboot this morning here is a really easy green juice recipe. I make mine in the blender, only out of laziness so I don’t have to wash the juicer. If you have a juicer feel free to use it….
Gluten-Free Banana Bread
Banana bread is one of those basic recipes everyone should have in their arsenal. It should be considered part of the basics, right up there with boiling water and cooking rice. Ironically I couldn’t cook a pot of rice if life depended on it… thank god for the rice cooker… But back to banana bread!…
