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…

Lo Mein with Hoisin Glazed Tofu
Noodle bowls of any kind are among some of my favorite foods. There’s nothing like sitting down to a Netflix Marathon (or binge session) with a big bowl of slurpy noodles. Carbs for the win… These Lo Mein Noodles with Hoisin Glazed Tofu are super easy to prepare making this dish weeknight approved, and are…
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…
Chocolate Hazelnut Sticky Rolls

Tacos Al Pastor
During my earlier trips to Mexico – prior to going vegan that it is – my favorite dish was Tacos Al Pastor. If you’ve never had it, it’s the Mexican equivalent of Hawaiian pizza, taco style. Now if you’re one of those people who think pineapple has no place on your dinner plate this dish…
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…

With the heatwave currently present in Montreal I’ve been looking for easy meals that require minimal cooking, and appliances that exude minimal amounts of heat. These jackfruit sandwiches make for a perfect summer…
