Salmon “Caesar” Salad
Another great recipe from my grain-free days! See I told you that time was inspiring! This makes use of crispy chickpeas instead of croutons and the roasted garlic and cauliflower gives it a nice earthy flavour.

Blue Cheese & Crispy Kale Burgers
So by now you might have noticed that I am a big fan of comfort food. I love to cook comforting meals and thinking up ways to reinvent classic combinations is always fun. This week its burgers! We love burgers in our house, but when I’m trying to keep the carbs down, I like to find…

Chicken Parm Meatballs
I am a comfort food cook. I confess. I love hearty and indulgent meals, the kind you have to loosen your belt for. Sadly, I’m not 24 anymore and can’t eat like this all the time. BIG SIGH. Even now when we do crave one of these meals, I try to find alternatives that make…

Sweet Potato Hash
I spent almost 10 years in New York during my 20s and a better part of that time was spent “brunching”. I was in heaven. Breakfast or really brunch has always been my favorite meal of the day. So much so that my mother always said that I would end up having a wedding brunch…

Crispy Chickpeas
Since I was pregnant with the boys, I suffered from pretty bad sciatic pain. Last October I was looking into different treatments and ended up reading about how grains in our diet can cause inflammation in our bodies….interesting. I decided to try a 30 day grain free diet. It was so successful that we ended up going 60…
