Sweet Potato Waffles

As the third week of school comes to an end, I am left knee-deep in homework and with a dire craving for baked goods. Seeing as I’m a tad bit obsessed with breakfast foods, I knew as soon as I set my backpack down today that I had to make these waffles. The thought came during physics as I…

Healthy Chocolate Cake

I believe good things come from chocolate cake. I mean, some of my best ideas have transpired whilst enjoying a slice at 2 am. Whether it’s a forgotten fact about snake bites, or the answer to a physics problem — chocolate cake is rather awesome. The only downside to chocolate cake is that apparently some Eeyore…

Two Ingredient Chocolate Ice Cream

I lost my ice cream maker. I don’t know how, and I certainly don’t know when, but what I do know is that I’ve been left to fend for myself in the field of homemade ice cream. Honestly, it’s not a huge deal. I’ve only ever used it once. But I mean, for those inexplicable moments…

Blueberry Muffins

When I was little, my parents used to take our family to blueberry farms to pick fresh berries. For me, the mere thought of a farm solely dedicated to blueberries was absolutely fantastic, and I couldn’t wait to bury my hands in endless buckets of fruit.

Sour Cream Doughnuts

This seems to be the summer of sweets. Forget bikini season, I’ll be in my apron.Although I do love to soak up the sun, eat watermelon by the pool, and relax with my friends, I’m always itching to get back into the kitchen. I want to create a new dish, bury my fingers into a…

Banana Split Cupcakes

When I was little, I woke up on a Tuesday and wanted a banana split for breakfast. It was set in my mind that having one in the morning would bring me the best day possible. So, in my Princess Jasmine jammies, I confidently marched into the kitchen and presented my idea to my mother….

Loaded Vegan Nachos

You know those days when you’re completely exhausted, and cannot even fathom the thought of dinner? But then your stomach…your poor, neglected, hungry stomach growls loud enough to cause an avalanche on Mt. Everest, and inevitably you find yourself at the fridge. Your shoulders sag as you realise all you have are a mix of…

The BEST Cinnamon Rolls

I kid you not when I say these are the BEST cinnamon rolls I have ever tasted. The last batch I made were absolutely fantastic, hands down. But this recipe. These rolls. I’m practically drooling. Warm, gooey, chock full of flavour… I can’t think of anything else I would want. What else is better than sticking your hands in…

Black Bean Salad

A few weeks ago, my dad and I ventured out to a baseball game. I’m not quite sure all the details of how we got the tickets–seeing as neither of us are avid sports’ fans–but we were there, and there was catered food. Now, for someone with food allergies, catered food is a nightmare. I had…
