Honey Roasted Almonds

I’m not sure where this recipe originated from, but my grandpa used to make these honey roasted almonds, so I copied the recipe from him. He didn’t make them all the time, but sometimes we’d go over to their house and there would be a bowl of them sitting on the coffee table. And whenContinue reading “Honey Roasted Almonds”

Air Fryer Fish Tacos

I owe this week’s blog post to Michael. Not only did he cook the fish tacos, but he also very kindly took all the photos for me. So, I got a delicious meal out of it, and I only have to do half the work to make this post happen! In case you didn’t noticeContinue reading “Air Fryer Fish Tacos”

Colleen’s Chocolates

If there’s one thing you can trust my word on, it’s chocolate. I love chocolate. I don’t remember the last time I went a full 24 hours without consuming chocolate in some form. If it’s not in solid form, I’m drinking a hot chocolate. I can’t get enough of it, ever. When I’ve traveled toContinue reading “Colleen’s Chocolates”

My grandma used to make these occasionally when we went over for a Sunday supper, and every time I saw them being brought to the table I would get so excited. I thought they would be quite complicatedContinue reading “Best Knotted Buns”

Make a Salad You’ll Actually Enjoy

A little while ago I saw a post on instagram about people not enjoying their salads because they don’t season the individual ingredients going into their salad. The post went on to explain this more in-depth, and to give examples of seasoning each individual ingredient on its own before throwing it into a salad. WhenContinue reading “Make a Salad You’ll Actually Enjoy”

My boyfriend’s birthday was earlier in February, but since he was out of town for work, we waited until last weekend to celebrate. We decided to celebrate his birthday our favourite way to celebrate all occasions – with food!
