Ricotta pancakes are so fluffy and delicious and a sneaky way to get more protein without it tasting like you are getting more protein. One batch has 24g of protein which is pretty fabulous since they taste like you are eating nothing but a pile of fluffy delicious carbs. I’m slightly obsessed. I really had no […]
Homemade Baked Pita Chips
I have received quite a few requests for my homemade baked pita chips recipe after posting photos on Instagram a few times in the past so I thought I’d post the recipe for easy reference! Homemade pita chips are really easy to make, are much less expensive than the store-bought variety and since you’re making […]

Roasted Grape Tomato & Bacon Pasta
This roasted grape tomato and bacon pasta recipe was a random lunch concoction that was too good not to share. Usually when it comes time for lunch I throw something really quick together and get back to work, but yesterday I was in the mood for something tasty. Something bacon-y and delicious. I also wanted […]
How to Make A Homemade Peppermint Mocha
One thing that has kept me going (quite literally) during this busy week is the peppermint mocha. Last weekend I had a couple of the McCafe Peppermint Mochas when they were on sale for $1, and I was totally hooked. They are so darn tasty! It got me thinking, wouldn’t it be nice to be […]
Meatless Lasagne
I’m not a vegetarian, but I do enjoy meatless meals and occasionally like to make a meatless lasagne using ricotta cheese instead of ground beef to bulk up the protein count. Unfortunately my photos for this dish aren’t terrible great – thems the breaks when you take your photos in the evening without the use […]
The Best Homemade Granola!
If there is one thing I like it’s granola. Well no that’s not true, if I was just going to choose one food to like it would probably be pizza but, I do really like granola! However, I’m not always fan of the store-bought kind. So what is a girl to do? Make her own […]
Oven Baked Potato Wedges
Oven baked potato wedges the best of both worlds, all the health benefits of forgoing the deep fryer with all the yumminess of fries. How can you go wrong? Well, one way to go wrong is to attempt making potato wedges on an unlined (no parchment paper or silicone mat lined) cookie sheet, but I digress. Friends, I […]
Pita Pizza: Your Lunchtime Savour
Somehow, even when I plan our meals prior to grocery shopping I always neglect to think of meals for me for lunch. I always make sure I have everything figured out for supper, and for my husband’s lunches/breakfasts but not my own. Sometimes I am smart and make a big pot of soup on the weekend […]
Road Trip to Applebees
This past weekend, myself and three friends (Arlene, Lisa and Cathy) piled into my car and headed to the city for a day of shopping and supper at Applebee’s. I had never been to Applebee’s before so when I was contacted by them a month or so ago and asked if I wanted to come try […]
