Carrot and Ginger Soup

Carrot and Ginger Soup

Healthy, delicious and velvety; this versatile carrot-ginger soup is perfect for any occasion. It can be served hot or cold and I must admit that I love it chilled, as it is so light and refreshing. If serving chilled, refrigerate at least two hours before service.
Note: this soup can be made well in advance or frozen for later use.

Healthy Dried Fruit truffles

Healthy Dried Fruit truffles

This vegan truffle is a healthy alternative to the decadent chocolate truffle. The recipe can be modified and used as a torte, cake, entremet base, or shaped into a bar for a healthy snack; the possibilities are endless.

Note: the healthy dried fruit base can be prepared in advance and frozen for up to 3-4 months.

Roast Chicken Pasta Sauce

Roast Chicken Pasta Sauce

I love to Roast or BBQ a whole chicken for Sunday’s dinner and then use the leftovers for delicious weeknight dinners and lunches. I often use my left over chicken to be included in a big pot of pasta sauce. This sauce is very versatile and can be served over pasta, zucchini spaghetti, squash or even rice. The sauce is delicious, jam packed with vegetables and it freezes well. Enjoy!

Nevermind traditional bland blueberry scones….these take it up a notch with warm spices of cinnamon and nutmeg and drizzled with a glaze made with sweet real Canadian maple syrup.

I have a friend who can’t stand mushrooms.. Needed to come up with an alternative to crab stuffed mushrooms, thus, the stuffed crab potato was born.

Coco-Coconut Muffins

Coco-Coconut Muffins

These scrumptious chocolate muffins are deceptively healthy. Compared to similar muffins, they pack a nutritious whole grain punch, and swap out sugary chocolate chips for intense cocoa nibs; a depth of flavour true chocolate lovers can appreciate. Start your morning with this no-guilt indulgence!
