We can’t exactly travel at the moment so I’m stuck here reminiscing about some of my favourite foods in Hawaii, one of them being kalua pork. This is such an easy dish to make, all pulled off in your slow cooker. Even though we may be self-isolating, you might find it hard to work from home when it’s smelling this heavenly in your house.
Read MoreCould there be anything more satisfying that tomato egg noodles? Not only is this dish super quick to whip up, it’s economically-friendly, vegetarian and easy to triple and quadruple in volume. Who doesn’t love noodles? Give this one a try - you’ll be hooked!
Read MoreThe coronavirus may be taking over our lives lately but atleast we still have cookies. I haven’t baked in over a month. No time due to life, realy. But when I found myself buying treats at the bakery below my office three times in a week over a two-week period I knew it was time for me to start baking again. Thank god these chocolate crinkle cookies were a breeze to whip up!
Read MoreNeed a new breakfast idea? Try Turkish menemen. This was one of my most favourite things to eat when I was in Istanbul. Love the addition of dried oregano and chili flakes on top. Makes for a great breakfast or brunch idea. Move over shakshuka, menemen is here to stay.

I didn't carry what the variety or region it was from - I just needed to have it. So I whipped up this super easy tomato egg drop noodle soup with surprisingly tasty results! Easy peasy and craving has now been satisfied.
Read MoreI have to admit, writing this post made my stomach growl. It also made me miss these Asian flavours. I’m currently finishing this post as I’m nearly half way through my month-long Europe trip. Cannot wait to make this piping out bowl of vegetarian bun rieu as soon as I’m back home in Vancouver!
Read MoreIt’s a rarity that I purposely cook meat now. Seriously, it’s almost a novelty unless it’s part of an ethnic dish that I’m making that truly cannot be created vegan. I used to make baked chicken dishes, stews and casserole dishes a lot when I was younger when I first taught myself how to cook. This is kind of a throwback but moreso to use up the apples that I had sitting on counter before I left for Europe. Herb and mustard-baked chicken, anyone?
Read MorePad thai from scratch. You’ll never have to go to Thai Express ever again. Trust me on this one. It’s easy as pie to make and once you have these ingredients on-hand, you’ll be making it a lot more than you’ll be ordering take out.
Read MoreI have so many rosemary recipes on this blog (thanks mom!). And believe it or not, I’m still not sick of the ingredient! It’s so nice to continue to reinvent this ingredient - this time in a rosemary apple pie. Don’t knock it til you try it!
Read MoreHappy New Year! Is it 2020 already? So you’re either in 1 of 2 boats: you’ve got a fridge full of leftovers or an empty fridge and no groceries in sight and need to make a meal with condiments and dry pasta.
