Biryani Potatoes and Poached Eggs

March 20, 2016

You know when you’re got so much happening that you feel like you don’t have enough time to take care of yourself? When time has become so precious, that the idea of cooking for an hour seems unfathomable? That’s me right now. We’ve all been there: sacrificing our nutrition for the sake of time. And once in a while, it ...

Crispy Potato Bites with Smoked Salmon and Creme Fraiche

February 21, 2016

This weekend was commemorative for me and my partner Ben: this was the weekend our parents met! I knew I wanted to make this dinner special, so we started the meal off with some sparkling cider from Quebec and these crispy potato bites with smoked salmon and creme fraiche. And oh, how decadent they were! The potatoes were extra-crispy thanks ...

Potato Waffles and Pomegranate Molasses

December 20, 2015

Waffles are one of my favourite breakfast foods. The extra effort required to whip them up makes them a weekend special, and they’re always rated first-class during brunch. But, like any classic, it can also be fun to give them a bit of a new flavour. These waffles are stuffed full of- you guessed it- mashed potatoes! I mixed in some ...

Senegal Potato Salad

August 25, 2015

Have you ever tasted Senegal butternut squash soup? It’s a mildly spicy-sweet soup enhanced with the slight taste of peanuts. It is so decadent and a true pleasure to eat. And lately, I’ve been thinking about this soup like a love crush. You know the feeling- you think about it all day, dreaming of the next time you will meet, ...

Rye Potato tart with Blue Cheese and Radicchio

May 25, 2015

You may argue this is a fall recipe. But I disagree- a light but rich tart is a perfect hot-evening meal, especially when it is served with a fresh green salad. Not to mention a slightly cool glass of wine and an evening breeze to make you forget your troubles. This tart is perfectly scrumptious. The rye crust is subtle and buttery, offering ...

Veggie Power Salad with Lemon Tahini Dressing

April 21, 2015

Have you ever noticed the minute it gets warm outside, everybody flocks to the gym? You see a few runners and joggers outside, sure, but there are hoards of people who run to the gym to get on the treadmill and run. And it is beautiful outside! This is something I just don’t understand about runners. Perhaps somebody could enlighten me? ...

Smoked Salmon Roll-Ups with Pickled Purple Potatoes

March 26, 2015

It’s sort of, possibly, almost spring! I love springtime, when the plants and trees start to come back to life and the sound of birds reappears after months of being muffled by a thick blanket of snow. With spring comes Easter, the bounty of chocolate and treats, and of course if you are like me, some sort of Easter party for your family ...

Corn and Cod Chowder

January 10, 2015

My New Year’s resolutions is to eat more fish. Variety is the key to success, I find, when it comes to a healthy diet. It’s so easy to fall into a routine of eating the same thing every week, so I set out to find easy and healthy fish-based meals, while spending little brain power in actually cooking it. Fish is a very particular ...

Spice Crusted-Potatoes with Whipped Feta Garnish

December 18, 2014

I must be frank with you: I’m not a french fry person. I never order them, never crave them, and you can be certain I won’t be stealing them off your plate. But that’s because most potatoes aren’t prepared like this. When The Little Potato Company sent me their potatoes to try, I was touched by their cuteness! The ...
