Charcuterie is how we celebrated my 24th birthday this past year: for like 4 days straight. It’s just the best kind of food, right?! A massive board for 2 to pick from, with some wine…you can even put dessert right on the same board as dinner is! If you’re entertaining, you might be wondering how …
Ah, winter. It’s never been my favourite season; I’m not gonna lie. I’ve never liked outdoor sports of any kind, I despise being cold, it takes a bit more effort to go for runs/walks, and, well, it’s not cottage season. However, if there’s one thing I like about winter, it’s the excuse to cozy up …
Smoothie Bowls. They’re a mood… but they can be hard to perfect. I love smoothie bowls for breakfast, or even lunch. And it’s funny, because I often crave them in the winter… is that weird? My ideal day of food would be a cozy oatmeal bowl topped with peanut butter, cinnamon, and chopped apple in …
I’m a 3pm snack kind of girl. Usually for something sweet–but my tastebuds are used to a healthy sort of sweet. As much as I love a donut, cookie, or brownie now and again, this wouldn’t be so healthy for an everyday kind of snack. But this moist (23% of you cringed; sorry), rich-tasting, fudgey …
Is it just me, or is owning a brand-new waffle maker, like, the Hallmark of being a wife? Since receiving it from my oma at my bridal shower, I have been so excited to use it — and test all sorts of recipes! Belgian waffles are my husband’s all-time favourite breakfast, so I tried making …
When I was a kid, I thought the only “dinner options” were the ones my mom made. Can you relate?So, like, everyone had spaghetti or flour tortilla-with-ground-beef tacos or chicken, rice, and broccoli or lasagna or roast beef or one of the many other delicious meals my mom made. As a foodie and cookbook fanatic …
In honour of my first day at a new job for a company I am thrilled to represent and work for, I thought I would share the lunch I brought today. It was delicious, filling, quick, and easy. Dairy-free and vegetarian, and well-rounded in carbs for lasting energy, and protein and fat for satiety. And, …
…it’s for your next 3pm hankering. You know, the in-between-lunch-and-dinner-I’m-feelin’-snacky hankering. I get it pretty much every day now that I eat unrestricted. It takes 10 minutes to make, is easy to customize, and involves very little effort. Sound like your kind of snack? Let’s get to it! Goat Cheese Margherita Pizza Makes 1 snack …
It is a common misconception that people with eating disorders hate food. The reality is quite the contrary. In most eating disorder sufferers, food is obsessed over, constantly thought about, and researched.In the depths of my disorder, I constantly baked and cooked high-fat, delicious dishes that I wouldn’t let my own tongue even nearly close to, but that I served with glee to those around me.
Frustrated is my word of choice. I am overwhelmingly frustrated. I’ve read every blog post about hypothalamic amenorrhea. I’ve spent months eating as much as my insides could take without exploding and remaining sedentary. Then I’ve tried adding in light exercise, eating high high fat contents without restricting other food groups. Here is what I …
