Cucumber, mint + lime ice blocks
The one thing my kids have always craved in the middle of winter and/or when sick with a cold, is cucumbers. They love them so much and will happily munch on a whole one like one would eat an apple. Sadly for them I don’t often buy cucumbers over winter, unless we’re really desperate (or […]
Herb quiches with tomato salsa (Gluten + dairy-free)

Honey Soy Tofu
I don’t want to start this off sounding like a broken record, but I’m going to do just that. Gosh it’s been awhile! The last few months have been a blur and after all the launch events I did for my latest cookbook, I totally crashed. As the gravity of my health issues (if you […]
