Travel: Paris Eats
Paris eats – here are some of our favourite places to eat in Paris, France. I’m a celiac so it’s a bit tricky for me when travelling, and to top that off, I’m not a huge fan of French food. I know, right?! Part of trip planning for me often involves searching out restaurants and making sure they have something GF. Since, as I’m sure you can relate, it’s so frustrating when I’m hungry, in a city I don’t know, and I can’t find food.…

Recipe: Pico de Gallo
Pico de Gallo – it’s like a fresh chunky salsa. So delicious. We eat it with chips, on chicken or even in tacos to add some freshness. Either way, it’s well worth the time to dice up those tomatoes into tiny pieces. Ingredients 6 roma tomato 1/2 of a white onion 2 tablespoons of cilantro 1 teaspoon of garlic 2 teaspoons of lime juice dash of hot sauce salt to taste Deseed the tomatoes and cut them into equal sizes – about 1/4-1/8 of an…

Travel: London Eats
London Eats – this is where we ate on our recent trip to London. Full of some Michelin Star restaurants, along with pubs, and chains that deliver on freshness. Let’s eat up!

This was our first stop after we got off the plane and checked into the hotel. For us,…

Projects: Halloween Treat Bags 2019
Halloween Treat Bags 2019 – what are you giving out for Halloween this year? We’ve got KitKat bars – the chunky ones I used to love before having to go gluten free. And, we’ve got hot chocolate, ring pops, and Jurassic Park pop-rocks. Total score. We live in the country and the kiddos show up on quads, side-by-sides or even mini-vans that are like clown-cars. How many people can fit in one of those things?! Since there aren’t too many houses on our block we…

Recipe: Buffalo Chicken Chili
Buffalo chicken chili – such a great fall eat. It’s a take on a classic buffalo chicken dip – if you like that dip (I love it) you’ll probably like this chili. It’s got a bit more heat, yet some creaminess to tamper down the spice. Last year I shared the red lentil chili 2.0 which I roasted the corn and charred the jalapeño and I did that again in this recipe. Okay, let’s get cooking! Ingredients 2 pounds of ground chicken – cooked 19…

Recipes: Favourite Fall Eats
Favourite fall eats. It’s September, I know, hard to believe, right? Fall is so beautiful with the leaves changing colour and back to school festivities, it’s like a new year. So, let’s celebrate with some awesome food. Favourite Fall Eats Red lentil chili warms the soul. Plus, it’s easy to cook up a huge batch and freeze for lunches. I actually put it in freezer bags (I know, single use plastics) and then it defrosts in the fridge at work in the morning. Hearty, filling, but not…
