I enjoy but rarely make ‘macaroon-type’ things – you know, stuff with shredded coconut. I don’t know why, but my first instinct would probably be to make my collagen cookie dough protein bites for the eighty-billionth time (they’re just so tasty!). Having made these delicious coconut protein bars, though, I may just have to permanently expand […]

Valentine’s Day makes a person think about sexual health. It’s a holiday about love and romance (and cards and candies), but it can also serve as an opportunity to check in with ourselves about our sexual health.

These collagen protein chocolate chip balls started as an experiment and have now become basically a staple in my life. I’m not sure I can live without them. I’ve literally made this recipe 10+ times and it’s time to share it. I found the original recipe for these on Healy Eats Real and I felt compelled […]

Today is a good day to give yourself a little extra care. Maybe an epsom salt bath, maybe a special nourishing dinner, […]

Are you enamored with teff flour yet? I am! Teff flour is my new baking darling. Making cookies? Teff flour. Making brownies? Teff flour. Making snack bars? Heck, yes, teff flour! Even the Globe and Mail is publishing full page articles extolling the virtues of teff, and when the Globe and Mail gets on board, […]
Read MoreWow, that title is a mouthful. But then again, so are these cookies. In keeping with the theme of using gluten-free flours in recipes that make them shine, these simple cookies take teff flour and let it sing. And they are certainly easy to make, straightforward, and made with simple clean ingredients. Tender Teff Peanut […]
Read MoreI’m definitely new to the teff flour bandwagon. I’m not entirely sure that there even IS a teff flour bandwagon, but however small or niche it is, I’m still new to it. I’ve seen a few delicious looking teff flour recipes in one of my favourite cookbooks, Clean Food, but the only thing I’d eaten […]
