This salad is a lemony delight. Lightly sauté your beans to warm this one up for fall and winter. 1 bunch dinosaur kale (other varieties will work well also) 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil juice of half large lemon (approx. 1 1/2 tbsp) zest of half a large lemon (or add all of the…
Squash, White Bean and Tomato Soup
This hearty soup is packed with fibre, antioxidants and flavour. You can use any type of squash or pumpkin in this recipe and the result is still spectacular. At harvest time I like to make this soup with fresh garden tomatoes for a lighter, fresher variation. 1 tbsp extra virgin coconut oil 1 1⁄2 cups…
Simple Dahl
We love lentils in our house! Rich in protein, minerals (iron!) and fibre, they make a great budget-friendly meal anytime of the day. Enjoy this super simple recipe as a mildly spiced soup or stew. It makes a great lunch or dinner and I have even been known to have this for breakfast too! 1…
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Squares
These are a favourite in our house and don’t last long. They are perfect for the lunchbox or as an afterschool snack, hearty and substantial and loaded with goodness. Lately, I have been using freshly steamed butternut squash instead of canned pumpkin and my son seems to enjoy these even more when I do. When…
Fig, Pumpkin Seed and Kale Smoothie
When fresh figs are available and are not too expensive, I will indulge. I bought my latest for $9.99 for a flat of 27 at my local specialty grocery store. They are so delicious and are so good for you too. I will buy a large flat and eat half, then quarter and freeze the…

Add roasted red pepper, lettuce and sprouts for a spectacular power sandwich. 1 cups cooked or canned chickpeas (rinsed and drained) 1 cup grated carrots 1 stalk celery,…
Fresh and Simple Veggie Soup
I am still in Whistler and it is a balmy 10C today. And rainy! No problem, I am actually doing some work so this unseasonal, fall-like weather is very welcoming. I don’t feel guilty about getting down to business, if you know what I mean. There are so many outdoor activities here so it can…
Simple Mixed Bean Salad
This simple salad is always a hit for a summer buffet. I often use cans of mixed beans and omit the green beans for a quick modification of this recipe. It makes great leftovers and tastes better as it sits. 1 can or 2 cups cooked kidney beans, drained and rinsed 1 can or 2…
Fingerling Potato, Pea and Cucumber Salad
There is nothing more satisfying than homemade potato salad and the umeboshi vinegar and ginger give this one a nice light twist. Amazingly delicious, a summer fave. Salad: 1-1/2 pounds fingerling potatoes, unpeeled and cut into 1” chunks (can use red skinned new potatoes also) 1 to 1-1/2 cups frozen or fresh green peas 1/4…
Simply Romaine with Magic Dressing
It’s magic! Put this dressing on your picky eater’s salad and watch it disappear. This recipe makes a big batch and can be kept in the fridge for the week, if it lasts that long. Yes, there is a good amount of maple syrup in this recipe, but it is the secret and magical ingredient….
