- Shredded Napa Salad with Lemon Dressing & Bacon
  
  Posted at 9:25 pm by Hollie Jeakins Photography, on May 6, 2014
  I LOVE making different salads, slaws and veggie hashes with my food processor. (As a side note, if you’re looking for a good food processor then I highly recommend the Breville BFP800XL. I previously used a KitchenAid model and I much prefer this unit!)
  
  Along with my blender, I consider my food processor to be a mandatory appliance that has earned permanent residence on my kitchen counter (prime real estate!). It’s good to know my hand and wrist will not suffer from the never ending chopping, mincing and shredding. Did you know that carpal tunnel is a real risk for cooks?
  
  Here is the recipe for my latest salad experiment using the shredding attachment of the processor. I find shredding the salad greens and veggies really helps my family consume greens in larger amounts without realizing it. Sneaky! Continue reading →

- Welcoming Spring with Whole Roasted Orange Carrots
  
  Posted at 10:56 am by Hollie Jeakins Photography, on April 15, 2014
  Spring is officially here! How I’ve missed the sunlight-filled days and warm breezy air. I don’t even mind the rain. Everyone knows that April showers bring May flowers. They must teach that in junior kindergarten because I’ve heard my son reciting it to his little sister while gazing out at a cloudy day with rain boots in hand.
  
  With spring comes a fresh start. New buds begin to bloom and trees start to pop with beautiful green leaves. It’s a season of “new beginnings” and it inspires me to make some new resolutions, set some new goals and look forward to some great time spent outdoors in the months ahead.
  
  I’ve decided to try a simple garden (again). While I’ve gained a lot of experience with food preparation and education in the last few years I still haven’t been terribly successful at growing my own produce. I have tried container gardens in the past with middling results. My mom has a green thumb though so I’ll certainly be hitting her up for tips this year. I’m going to keep trying though because you just can’t get a fresher vegetable than one you pick yourself from your own garden. Continue reading →

- Irresistible Indian Dahl Soup Bowl
  
  Posted at 7:36 am by Hollie Jeakins Photography, on February 28, 2014
  Creamy lentils, caramelized onions, garlic, cumin seeds with a burst of intense Indian flavours? Oh yes! How good does that sound?
  
  I was delighted after taking the first spoonful of dinner last night. I really love a good soup! I was left with a spicy tang that kept me wanting more…and more! I must say thank you to my kitchen friends: Indian spices, fresh lemon juice and hot peppers.
  
  I’m actually going to cook another batch today. I know it’s an exceptional recipe when eating the same meal two nights in a row seems like the best idea ever!
  
  Lentil soup is quite filling and wholly satisfying. One bowl would definitely serve as a main dish for most people. I didn’t need that second bowl but I’m a real sucker for Indian inspired food with some heat!
  
  The level of spice depends on how many hot peppers you add. If you prefer mild, you can cut the hot peppers in half (or even leave them out). When I reduce the hot peppers by half, the soup is mild enough for my children to eat but still has a subtle heat.

- Happy Tummy & Cold Busting Tea
  
  Posted at 7:34 am by Hollie Jeakins Photography, on February 24, 2014
  Winter can have a tendency to leave people feeling dragged down. I often feel as if the bitter winter will never end. On our way to school each morning my son has begun asking “When is spring going to come?”
  
  Spring where are you?? I’m pretty sure most of us are ready to say goodbye to Winter for another year. Even my five year old is fed up with the cold weather and short days!
  
  When winter has me feeling run down (or I’m worried that I may be coming down with a bug), I often turn to a homemade tea. Tea can be so soothing and comforting. Continue reading →

- Dark & Decadent Chocolate Bark-The Perfect Valentine’s Gift
  
  Posted at 3:41 pm by Hollie Jeakins Photography, on February 11, 2014
  Dark chocolate is definitely one of my favourite indulgences.
  
  Is there anything better than a hot sip of coffee followed by a bite of rich dark chocolate? It immediately melts into a smooth and creamy moment of pure bliss!
  
  With Valentine’s Day around the corner, there is no better time to make some handcrafted chocolate. What’s a more fitting way to say ‘I love you’ than with a gift of homemade Dark & Decadent Chocolate Bark?
  
  I’m delighted to skip the expensive chocolate stores and inflated prices of Valentine’s Day merchandise. I also get to avoid all of the iffy ingredients (refined sugar, preservatives) found in store-bought chocolate.
  
  You can get quite creative and personable with this gift. A classic tin lined with wax paper or parchment paper always makes for a pleasing package.
  
  I’m considering heading to the craft store and picking up some clear gift bags. I’d love to secure the bag closed with some cooking twine and attach a personalized gift tag.
  
  This bark has a mere 3 ingredients for the base. The toppings are optional and customizable to taste.
  - Raw cacao powder (or cocoa powder)
  - Raw cacao butter
  - Honey
