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!

Hi, my name is Lizzy and I am 100% obsessed with tomatoes right now. My usual mode of consuming these beauties is sliced with a hefty glug of olive oil and more than a fair sprinkle of sea salt and black pepper. Simple, and so satisfying. However, do to the fact that I somehow can’t help but buy pounds and pounds of these at the farmer’s market, I need to find other ways to use them up. In comes this tart. A cheesy (dairy free of course), pesto-y and tomato tart combination that is the perfect culmination of all that summer has to offer.

Can we talk about breakfast for a moment? I love breakfast (even when I have it for dinner) but I must admit that what my breakfast looks like has changed dramatically over the last few years.
When I was in university the vast majority of my diet was sugar (ummm Lucky Charms for breakfast and Sour Patch Kids for lunch). Obviously not the optimal diet! Moving on after university in my attempt to eat healthier I consumed a lot of toast, fruit, and skim milk- which also ended up not being optimal for me. As I got older and more intentional about what I was putting in my body I started experimenting with loaded bowls of oatmeal- I would cram these bowls full of ground flax/chia, hemp seeds, nut butters, goji berries, fresh fruit, berries and superfoods. These bowls were filled with awesome but honestly never left me feeling great. So, I decided I had to move away from sweet and onto savoury.
