This recipe is an all time favorite during rhubarb season. The nutty sweetness of the cashews blends deliciously with the tartness of the rhubarb. Serve for Tuesday night dinner or at a dinner party to guests, everyone will be licking their bowls.
This delicous recipe comes from my mother-in-law Vivian who is an excellent cook. She excels at finding and executing tasty recipes like this one. This was passed to her via a friend.

The recipe is so easy that I watched the video once and remembered the whole thing – well, almost
You may have noticed that I have a soft spot for many different foods. Roasted vegetables come close to the top of this list. Roasting takes something wonderful like a zucchini and makes it divine, turns garlic into something swoon-worthy, and gathers every last drop of sweetness from a tomato. These vegetable stacks take all that deliciousness and adds two more amazing ingredients; fresh bocconcini and balsamic vinegar. Once you try these little towers of vegetable power, you`ll be singing their praises too.
My husband Ryan is a talented guy in many ways. Cooking, however, is not one of them; this is not his recipe :)
This is another recipe from the ‘Whitewater Cooks at home’ cookbook by Shelley Adams. I’ll likely be posting many many vegetarian burger type recipes as I love a good burger. And though I will occassionally go all out and indulge in a grass-fed, organic, free-range beef or buffalo burger, I usually prefer to go for a lighter option. Really, it’s just an excuse to layer all of my favorite toppings between two buns! Who can resist sauteed mushrooms, crisp red onions, garlic aoili, all the varieties of lettuce, cheese (sometimes), unpasterized saurkraut, etc etc etc. It’s got to be lunchtime somewhere…….
Tofu is unfortunetly not without it’s faults as a potential health food. It is however a very good source of protein and relatively fast to prepare. I keep it on hand for the occasional quick dinner. Like anything else that isn’t completely healthy, use this food in moderation. Serves 4 1 package (440g) firm or extra firm […]
This recipe was passed on from my mother-in-law, and is a staple in her kitchen. It’s freezes well, is fancy enough to serve to company, and healthy at the same time. Yams are very high in carotene which is helpful for everything from preventing cancer, to keeping your eyesight strong. Serves 6-8 ½ cup olive oil […]
This pudding knocks everybody’s socks off. Kids and adults fight for the last spoonful, and nobody realizes they’re also lapping up B vitamins, fiber, as well as vitamins C, E, and K. Ti’s smooth, chocolatey, and everything a good pudding should be. For those of us living in British Columbia (or similar cold winter climates) this recipe […]
As a foodie and wannabe chef, I am super proud of this dressing. It is a little labour intensive for a dressing, but well worth it.
