Everyday I’m more and more excited that I’m heading home SO soon (15 more sleeps but who’s counting lol!). I’m sure anybody who lives far away can relate. Are you travelling long distances over the holidays? I head home twice a year, once during the holidays and once during the summertime. And the couple of…

ByCeara November 27, 2014July 28, 2023

These Flourless Almond Butter Chocolate Chunk Cookies are so easy, healthy and delicious it’s not even funny. Made with 7 simple ingredients: Almond butter, oats, ground flax seed, maple syrup, vanilla extract, baking powder and chocolate chunks + sea salt if you count that as an ingredient.

Hearty Vegetarian Bolognese

ByCeara November 6, 2014July 28, 2023

The other day I sat beside a cheerful, chatty 11 year old on the train who spoke four languages – four. We conversed in French on the train (his third language) and he couldn’t get over the fact that A) I just spoke two languages and that B) my family just speaks English. He seriously couldn’t get over how…

Healthy Pumpkin Bread with Maple Pecan Crumble

ByCeara October 9, 2014July 28, 2023

Things I learned since moving to Belgium: They do not sell canned pumpkin puree here. Chia seeds and a lot of other superrr foods are only sold in special shops. And everything in those special ships is wayyyy overpriced. I mean, who can afford 8 euros for a tiny bag of chia seeds that will last me less than…

“I can’t believe it’s not peanut butter”: Peanut Free Peanut Butter

ByCeara September 25, 2014July 28, 2023

Peanut Butter was sacred when we were kids. It was never allowed in the house. So the moment we would visit grandma’s we would politely ask for a warm, melty peanut butter sandwich for lunch – or quite frankly for any meal/snack of the day. It was only a plus if it was spread on a…

Since coming back to Canada a couple weeks ago I’ve been indulging in lots of fruit including fresh and frozen wild Canadian blueberries.
