11 Easy, Healthy Ways to Conquer Breakfast On-The-Go

Breakfast is my favourite meal of the day. I’m not a morning person, however, so hearty breakfasts are not the norm in my house on busy weekday mornings. Most days my kids eat cereal with milk, or toast with peanut butter, with a glass of orange juice before they head to school. But what about those occasional days when a child doesn’t have time … [Read more...]

Roasted Pumpkin Seeds

As I write this post, I'm noshing on one of my favourite Halloween treats... and it's not candy!  There's only one time of year when I buy pumpkins, so at Halloween I always make roasted pumpkin seeds. They're a delicious - and healthy - savoury snack. If you've ever wondered how to make them (psst... it's super easy!), read on. … [Read more...]

Easy Homemade Croutons

When you go grocery shopping, do you ever check out the "Enjoy Tonight" or "50% off" racks? If not, you should!  I often buy half-price meat and, if I don't need it "tonight", I pop it in the freezer to be enjoyed sometime soon. Same goes for baked goods - they're a great buy on the sale rack.   My supermarket marks down their … [Read more...]

New Breakfast Favourites {And Kids Eat FREE!}

Just to be clear, I love to cook when I have the time.  But I almost never have the time.  So, when I can combine two of my favourite things (eating and NOT cooking) and throw in "kids eat free", … [Read more...]

From the minute you step onto a Disney property, you're transported to a fantasy land beyond your wildest dreams!  My kids have been to Walt Disney World twice, and keep asking to go back. We … [Read more...]

My Family’s Favourite Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

There's nothing my family loves more than homemade chewy chocolate chip cookies, fresh out of the oven. I've been using the same recipe for years and if I ever try something new, they usually ask me to go back to the original.  It's from a cookbook of family recipes my Mom gave me when I went away to university. (Fun fact: they are the … [Read more...]

From Farmers, With Love  

As a Mom, I want the best for my kids. From the food we eat to the sunscreen we put on our skin, everything seems to take on greater significance when it comes to them. So, ever since my first child was little, I’ve been more conscious about what goes into our bodies. In turn, we buy organic produce (the EWG’s Dirty Dozen+ is a good … [Read more...]
