A great make-ahead pasta salad, this one is high in protein and gluten-free when you use this red lentil “Risoni”. The rainbow of coloured sweet peppers and lemony asparagus make this a family favourite!

Luscious Lemon and Berry Tarts
This make-ahead dessert is so lemony and wonderful! The crispy phyllo pastry tart shells and the lemony filling can both be made a day or two ahead and assembled when you are ready to serve! Always impressive and tasty!
Mango Orange Cheezecake
This wonderful, make-ahead dessert freezes well and is always impressive! An easy, creamy, flavourful filling is baked in a crispy almond and oat crust for a perfect bite!
Savoury Sourdough Pancakes
Using some sourdough starter, it’s easy to create this savoury meal! A delicious mix of smoky corn and green onions make these pancakes a tasty treat any time of day. Drizzle with a little vegan hollandaise for a bright flavour addition.
Apple Pie-rogies
Warm apple pie-ish bites of goodness, these are scrumptious dipped in a cinnamon-spiced caramel sauce! This combination tastes of my childhood memories: eating apple pie with lots of cinnamon sauce! A sweet, alternative way to use extra perogi dough!
Roasty Rainbow Pepper Soup
Enjoy slurping the rainbow in this quick and easy favourite, with or without the smoky corn. Try some homemade bread along side, like this wonderful Patchwork Pull-Apart Bread, or this scrumptious Sunshine Bread!
Grandma’s Brown Sugar Cookies
Grandma used to make these for special occasions and the homemade flavour still brings back wonderful memories. A thin, lemony glaze is the perfect compliment to the richness of the brown sugar base; add some coloured glaze and swirl for extra fun! A great activity for a house-bound day!
Tumble Cookies
These tasty Tumble Cookies are made with a tumble of craisins and almond flour combined with a chewy chocolate chip oatmeal cookie dough.
