This might be absolutely obvious to some of you, but I couldn’t believe how easy it was to make quinoa in my rice cooker. My kitchen is full with gadgets so I am very happy to find more uses for a single-purpose item like my rice cooker. I have a very basic model. It has…
Almond Milk Hot Chocolate
Just yesterday morning we had our very first snowfall of the year in Niagara and it is beautiful! I don’t know if it’s going to last but I was still super excited to bring out my favorite winter recipes like this vegan hot chocolate. This recipe is pretty versatile. I used to make it with…
Homemade Nut Butters
I am a little bit crazy about nut butters. I have almost a whole shelf dedicated to a variety of them because they are so good and on so many things! Making your own homemade nut butters is so easy and it eliminates any weird ingredients that you see in a lot of the store-bought…
Gluten Free Pasta Dough

Healthy Berry Sorbet
This is such a simple recipe (if you can call it that) that it sort of feels like cheating. I don’t have a big sweet tooth the way I know a lot of people do. This means that I rarely have sweet snacks stocked at my house so when I DO get a sweet tooth…
Cream of Anything Soup Mix (gluten free)
I love to use cream soups. I know many people my age have memories of their moms cooking pork chops in cream of mushroom soup or bringing a hot-out-of-the-oven casserole to the table. Or my favorite… scalloped potatoes. Over the years I have phased out this out-of-the-can cooking. It is in part because of my…
