Asparagus & Cheese Quiche
A few months ago I started a new series on my Youtube channel called “Slow Sundays” – this is a place where I’ll share long form videos of recipes. A place to appreciate cooking and making things from scratch without a catchy hook in a 30 second video. Don’t get me wrong, those have their place too but it’s also nice to get away from that. Unfortunately I have been a little slow at posting them but life has been super busy in the last few months. I’m feeling more settled now and hoping to get back to my Slow Sundays.

Breakfast Parfait with Coconut Yogurt and Berry Chia Jam
I have to admit…breakfast is NOT my favourite meal of the day! I know so many people love breakfast, and love going out for breakfast on weekends, but that is soo not me! It is always too rushed during the week, and I’m the kind of person who eats sooo slow! And when it comes to going out for breakfast, the options are always slim for vegetarians/vegans. What I really look forward to is a beautiful homemade breakfast on a lazy weekend day. I always enjoy my buckwheat pancakes, but I think this breakfast parfait with coconut yogurt and berry chia jam might be my new, ultimate breakfast. I used Coyo…

Carrot Cake Oatmeal with Ginger Spiced Cashew Cream
I hope you all had a great weekend! I did 🙂 I went out for a delicious Thai dinner to celebrate a friend’s birthday, and went straight from there to a fun housewarming party. I also went to “The Food Show” in Auckland. I love going to these types of events, and it reminded me of EAT! Vancouver. It’s always fun to check out the stalls and samples at food shows. It’s a great way to learn about new companies, and smaller, local companies that you might not have heard of. There were tons of vendors at The Food Show, selling everything from cheese to bread, granola bars to dumplings,…

Tropical Coconut & Passionfruit Chia Pudding
One of my favourite things about eating raw foods is that often dessert and breakfast can be the same meal! Who doesn’t want a chocolatey raw cacao and banana smoothie, or banana soft serve with fruit and coconut cream for breakfast. In this instance, I made a sweet and fruity tropical coconut & passionfruit chia pudding for breakfast; but I could easily enjoy it as a healthy, sweet dessert, too. I love all of the amazing fruit they have here in New Zealand. I rarely get to work with things like passionfruit, or guava. We stopped at “Fruit World” the other day, and picked up quite the haul of delicious…

Drop Dead Recipes- Vegan Lemon “Buttermilk” Pancakes with Blueberry Sauce
My latest post for Drop Dead Clothing is allllll about breakfast. I’m actually not that big into breakfast foods, but I have always liked breakfast for dinner. Pancakes at suppa time, yes please. I feel like it’s way too difficult to find vegan options for breakfast when you’re dining out. It’s a lot easier to stay at home and whip up these pancakes! No eggs, no dairy! I also made these pancakes wearing my new fav sweater. It’s so cozy, and I normally wear a lot of black, so I like the light blue for a change. These are lemon-flavoured vegan pancakes topped with a mouth-watering blueberry sauce. Has anyone…
