Paleo, dairy free, vegan popsicles? Yes Please!
These delicious roasted Strawberry Rhubarb Popsicles with coconut cream are easy to make and so perfect for those hot, sticky, summer days. You feel me? With rhubarb just at the tail end of its season, what better way to use it up than by making popsicles?!

Paleo gluten free muffins that aren’t a crumbly mess?
The struggle is real. And so is this recipe. Paleo Orange Date muffins that are moist, tender and sweetened only with dates and freshly squeezed orange juice!! Huge win.
I am obsessed with these muffins and have been making them repetitively. You know, I had to make sure they were *perfect* for the blog. Are you ready to give them a go?
Let’s do this!!

Working on a blog is hard.
Don’t get me wrong, I love blogging. It comes with sweatpants, eating copious amounts of delicious food and cuddling with my pooch throughout the day.
However, it does mean spending a lot of time alone. A lot. It also means a lot of time doing dishes and a lot of time on social media. Social media can be tricky as I often find that the more I scroll the more I compare myself to other bloggers. So instead, I have found it very useful to reach out, make friends, and collaborate. Making food and creating with friends is so refreshing and enjoyable and fun to see things through a different lens.
One of my good friends, Tisha from The Nourished Mind, has been someone I can reach out to to ask blogging advice, talk about the latest health trends (we are both nutritionists) and now, collaborate together! We made a gluten and dairy free holiday charcuterie with vegan cheese (my recipe is for a Cranberry and Rosemary Cheese Roll) and a Tisha made a beautiful Cranberry Apple and Rosemary Jam.
Want to give your own holiday charcuterie board a go? Read on friend.

Sometimes on Mondays all you really need is a little cake. Like this Chai Banana Snack Cake. Paleo, grain free, dairy free and absolutely delicious.
Don’t you love how it’s called a “snack” cake. It makes eating cake as a snack any time of the day legitimate. Now I’m just waiting for the lunch cake and dinner cake trend to take off and I’m all set.
Semantics aside, this cake is moist, tender, flavourful and only has 2 tbsp of maple syrup in the whole thing! (what?!). It’s also full of chai spices like cardamom and cinnamon which smell amazing while it’s baking. I feel like I could even call this recipe a “breakfast cake” because it definitely seems like a nice breakfast treat.

Halloween is coming up fast. Can we all sit here for a moment and just think about HOW IT’S ALREADY THE END OF OCTOBER?! Let’s just slow everything down today and appreciate that it’s not snowing outside (at least where I am) and there are beautiful fall colours around us and we can eat all of the caramel apples our hearts desire. Like these superfood spiked caramel apple slices. Let me just say that again. SUPER. FOOD. SPIKED. CARAMEL. APPLE. SLICES. You dig?
Let’s give them a go!

Peach season is coming to a close. It’s sad but true. We had a good run this summer and I even managed to get some late summer popsicles in. I feel as though I need to embrace the start of fall and school and sweaters and boots and pumpkin spice lattes. However, it is still hot as a sauna outside so instead, I have decided to meet fall halfway with a little bit of summer. These Roasted Peaches with a Cashew Cardamom Cream do just that! Juicy, drippy, perfectly ripe peaches with a flavourful fall-like cardamom cream. Easy, simple and delicious.
