Oh, Cauliflower Rice! Where have you been all my life?!? I don't know, maybe I'm just a bit late to the game, but I'm so glad I finally tried this delicious rice substitute! If you haven’t tried it yet, here's a super simple and flavourful way to prepare cauliflower rice and get a ton of veggies into your meal. You might even get lucky (like I did) and slip it by the kids without them realizing it isn't actually rice! I chopped the cauliflower myself, but you can also just as easily pop it into a food processor to make small rice-sized pieces. You can also find pre-cut bags of "cauliflower rice" in your produce section. As for the veggies, you...
Have you ever bought a ready made salad at a grocery store or restaurant and thought, hey I can make this?! Well I had this salad at a Whole Foods one day, and it was so delish that I absolutely had to try recreating it at home .. it turned out so great! It's a super tasty & filling salad and the addition of the tofu makes it a perfect full meal. It's flavourful and comforting without feeling heavy. These kinds of salads are awesome because you can customize them any way you like - think of it as the perfect "clean out the fridge kind of meal". So, are you ready to take your salad game up a notch? :) Here is what...
Ever have a head of cauliflower staring at you from the fridge and you just don't know what to do with it? Well this simple Curry Roasted Cauliflower is a game changer. It's now on weekly rotation in our house. It's perfect as a side dish or as an after-school snack (especially if Asiyah gets her hands on them)! Love the amazing blend of spices, it's a quick & delicious way to get in some healthy veggies. I remember learning as a child that many fruits & veggies resembling body parts often had direct health benefits related to that part of the body. While I don't know if that's always the case, the brainy-looking cauliflower is packed with lots of anti-oxidants...
Talk about comfort food, this Moroccan Shepherd's Pie is perfect for those cold winter days. Not only is it delicious, filling, and healthy, the fragrant spices will leave your entire house smelling wonderful.

It's just the thing if you're looking to clean up your diet a bit, but still want to enjoy those delicious comfort foods. I like to load mine with different veggies to make sure I’m packing in the nutrients! You can make a big batch to feed a crowd, or prepare smaller beautiful portions for a lovely dinner for one or...
Ok, so in case you haven't noticed, the thermostat has been creeping downwards in these parts. That means we all need a little something to keep us warm & cozy on those dark and cold nights, amiright? This beautiful Turmeric Latte is just the thing to leave you feeling relaxed and toasty all over. I love it's gorgeous golden colour and it also smells divine, with notes of fresh ginger, honey and cinnamon. I've been drinking a version of this milk since I was a little kid. Every time I got sick, my mom would bust out the "Haldi" milk, warm it up to just the right temperature, and I'd sit down on the couch, feeling very grown-up sipping it out of...
