This is a good spice mix to keep in your pantry. It’s delicious on eggs, on top of spreads, on seared tuna, steaks, potatoes etc. You can even blend it in with some extra virgin olive oil to make a delicious dipping sauce for some fresh bread

The longer this dish marinates in the fridge the better it tastes. I used a mandolin to get the beautiful ribbons but you can just slice the zucchini into rounds if you don’t own one. This recipe is great for summer potlucks!

This is a great dish to have in your back pocket. It’s dairy free and gluten free all while tasting luxuriously creamy.

This is a twist on a salad with some familiar southwestern flavours. I used jalapeno cheddar popcorn to give it a nice crunch and some spice instead of the usual crunchy tortilla strips. Add some ground beef or chicken and top with fresh salsa for a filling meal.

This salad is great because it keeps well in the fridge for a couple of days even if it’s been dressed!

I find that cauliflower is a highly underrated vegetable. In my opinion, when it’s raw it’s pretty blah, but as soon as you give it a nice roast it’s incredible. It is a great vessel for all sorts of flavours: in this case a buttery, salty, anchovy-based sauce.

This is a twist on a classic Caprese salad. Chimichurri is an Argentinian sauce made of fresh parsley and garlic that is traditionally served with grilled meat. This dressing is fresh and vibrant with a serious punch of garlic.

This one is a play on a classic Italian appetizer of prosciutto wrapped cantaloupe. Endive was a great pairing for this salad because it’s bitterness is contrasted fantastically with the sweet melon.

This salad originates from Lebanon and is the third salad in my summer salad series. It’s cheap to make, holds up well in the fridge for a few days and is a great addition to any meal. If you want to eat this on its own I would suggest adding some cooked chickpeas for some protein and fiber to keep you full longer.

Time to switch up the classic mashed potato side dish. I'm still serving up potatoes but in a more satisfying way.

This is a versatile salad. We added in pomegranate seeds and sunflower shoots to some of the versions, and we also played around and made it with squash instead of sweet potato and Finocchiona instead of Coppa. Po-TAY-to Po-TAH-to, you know?

This salad is incredibly flavourful and good for you! Not even a drop of oil is used which is very uncommon considering most traditional salad dressings are oil based. To make the papaya strands I used a handheld julienne shredding tool but you can always use a regular box grater or even a spiralizer if you have one. I found all of the ingredients listed fairly easily at my local Asian market, so hopefully, you can do the same!

Cake for breakfast?!? Dreams do come true. All the delicious flavours of carrot cake are here and in pancake form (except for raisins because they are the shittiest version of a delicious grape).

These are no joke. These eggs Benedict are sitting on top of a crab cake instead of a traditional English muffin.

Start your day off right with a salad. If you put an egg on it you can call it breakfast, right? This has the perfect amount of protein and vegetables to set you up for success for the day.

This is an impressive party appetizer that is a sure fire hit. If you are making these be sure they are the very last thing on your list since they do not keep well after frying. I would suggest to even fry these in front of your guests because that is the most fun part. The wontons expand and contort immediately in the oil and are quite beautiful. The fresher the better!

This is a classic dip from Arabic origin, made mostly of roasted eggplant. Sometimes it is made with mayo for extra creaminess but I wanted to keep this plant-based so I used a vegan mayo instead.

These are a lot easier than I expected! You don’t need any kind of special equipment (other than a rolling pin) and you can top them with your favourite spices. Since these don’t have any yeast they do not rise so do not worry about them being very close together on the baking sheets.
