The cookies are by far the BEST chocolate chip cookies I have ever made. They’re crispy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. And they stay that way days after they’ve been baked and have cooled. Gone are the days of chocolate chip cookies that are hard as a rock. But my…

Instant Pot Minestrone Soup
Hey there friends. Can you believe January is already over? Seriously, where did it go? I don’t know where you are in the world, but up here in Montreal it is cold as f… well I don’t want to cuss, so let’s just say its really cold. Like negative double digits cold, in both Celsius…
Sweet Potato Chili Boats
Waking up to a snow covered city this week made me realize there is no more denying it… winter is here. And while that does mean turning on the heaters, pulling out the sweaters, and dressing in layers, it also means a lot more hot comfort meals. Chili is a favorite of mine, and I…

Lemon Brussels Sprout Pizzas
Spring is in the air. The trees are budding, the grass is beginning to turn a lush shade of green and there is a warmth in the air. Before we know it’ll be summer and time for backyard BBQs and patio parties. During the summer months I enjoy recipes with a light, and fresh air…
