Cucumber and Tomato Salad

Originally published on March 14, 2014 I’m one of those people that doesn’t see a whole lot of point in having lettuce in salads. I mean, I have nothing against lettuce per se, but when there are so many other delicious vegetables, what’s the point? In Caesar salad, I get it. It’s a main component. […]

Sweet and Sour Cucumbers

Originally published on March 15, 2014 Yesterday I gave you a classic recipe for a cucumber and tomato salad, which is always a big hit at our table. But I recently discovered a side dish that might just replace that salad. You take away the oil and the tomatoes and replace it with sugar (just a […]

Chicken Fried Cauliflower

Originally published on March 17, 2014 If you follow me on Facebook you might remember when I told you last week that experts were now saying that cauliflower is the new kale. I didn’t come up with that all on my own. I watched Bethenny Frankel talk about it on her show, when she had […]

Cauliflower Fried Rice

Originally published on March 19, 2014 Yesterday we talked about “ricing” cauliflower – the process of putting florets into a food processor and pulsing it until they began to look just a bit larger than pieces of regular rice. Doing this allows you to take cauliflower to a whole new level, such as turning it […]

Cauliflower Tots

Originally published on March 20, 2014 Of all the cauliflower recipes I’ve given you this week, this one might be my favourite! I once watched a Diners, Drive-Ins, and Drives where Guy Fieri interviewed a restaurant owner that made his own tater tots. There was much discussion about how this was a very difficult thing to do, and how […]

Buffalo Cauliflower

Originally published on March 22, 2014 All week long we’ve been looking at different cauliflower recipes because you know, cauliflower is the new kale. And I think we’ve proven that by shaping, reforming, and revamping cauliflower in many different ways. Today, we do it again with Buffalo Cauliflower. All the great taste of buffalo wings, in a […]

Cabbage and Bacon

Originally published on March 25, 2014 Bacon really does make everything better. I love cabbage just about any way you cook it, but I know a lot of people that don’t. But if you want to reap all the health benefits it holds, and not be distracted by that taste and texture you just can’t […]

Avocado and Eggs

Originally published March 27, 2014 This might be one of my new favourite recipes, especially for the middle of the day when I want something really tasty, really satisfying, but doesn’t take a long time to make. I’ve seen eggs stuffed into avocados and baked a couple of times, and it’s always been just a […]

Tuna Boats

Originally published on March 30, 2014 Being a type of fish that I know will always be good for me and will never cause me to break out in an allergic reaction, I love tuna. But still, I overlook it far too often. This dish however, is one that I’ve been making for years and one that not […]

Granola Bars

Originally published on April 1, 2014 You can have granola, or you can spend a few minutes squishing it all down into a casserole dish, let it sit in the fridge overnight, and have granola bars. I prefer the latter, and just to keep everyone on their toes (and to comply with the peanut-free zone at […]
