I love the flavours found in Thai food. There is a great Thai restaurant in Winnipeg that is very accommodating to vegans and those on gluten-free diets. I eat there all the time, perhaps more than any other restaurant. But, eating out is expensive and I just can’t go out for Thai food every time…
Lunch
Roasted Chickpea Cauliflower Salad with Candied Pecans
Roasted cauliflower and chickpeas are tossed in a cumin vinegrette with candied pecans and cilantro. This vegan, gluten free Roasted Chickpea Cauliflower Salad makes a great side and is delicious served hot or cold! Alright, friends. Here we are. Do I owe anyone an explanation as to why it has been a couple months since…
Roasted Beet Salad w/ Almond Feta
Tomorrow is December 1st. I can’t wait. I am especially excited for Christmas this year, but I am more excited for the whole month of December (minus the first week). As I write this, it is nine days, three hours, and fourteen minutes until I land in Winnipeg. I have never looked forward to…
Summer Salad w/ Savoury Dressing

my favourite tofu strips w/ maple dill sauce

Touted as Winnipeg’s anarchist icon, Mondragon was the heart of veganism in Winnipeg for a very…
post-holiday ‘turkey’ soup
It’s been over a month since my last post. I kind of disappeared for a while, for both good and bad reasons. Life got busy, the days got shorter. Essentially, life happened. I left on a bit of a bad note; my last post was slightly dreary, wasn’t it? Well, thankfully, I am feeling much…
Vegan Fall Quinoa Salad w/ Cranberries, Walnut, Apples
It’s been over a month since I posted anything, but it feels like only a week or so has gone by. Life is hectic and I haven’t had time to sit down and write a post. Well, that’s a lie. I have had the time but I’ve been unmotivated and would much rather watch re-runs…
creamy asparagus soup
It is almost officially fall and I cannot wait. The boots, the scarves, the sweaters… is there anything better? The beginning of fall also marks the beginning soup eating season. Don’t get me wrong, I eat soup all year round, but I crave it in the fall because it is so comforting and easy to…
