Pistachio & Dried Cranberry Biscotti

Last weekend, we were in Annan to celebrate an early Christmas with M's family. While we were up there, we made biscotti! I had never attempted this before and thankfully, it turned out really well (with help from M's mom!). I'm sure you could change up the additions that you make - I am going … Continue reading Pistachio & Dried Cranberry Biscotti

Butternut Soup with Homemade Croutons

It's starting to get cold here in Waterloo and that means it's time for soups! Butternut soup is my absolute favorite soup - probably because my mom makes an amazing butternut soup. This version was made lighter by not adding any cream or coconut milk; it's creamy enough without it! And, because it is so … Continue reading Butternut Soup with Homemade Croutons

Dairy-Free Pumpkin Pie

  If you're looking for a dairy-free alternative to pumpkin pie, look no further! I found this recipe on Chemistry Cachet and I have modified it just a little bit for my own use. For the crust I used my recipe from the blog, Homemade Pie. The crust takes a little while to prepare, but if you are … Continue reading Dairy-Free Pumpkin Pie

Light(er) Turkey Chilli

This recipe was a huge hit! Even though we were super busy last weekend, we had time to throw this into the crockpot and have dinners ready for Saturday, Sunday and Monday! Seriously - it took me about 20 mins from start to finish and all our dinners were ready for the weekend. Even though … Continue reading Light(er) Turkey Chilli

Pumpkin Loaf

It may be 30 degrees out today but it's fall and that means time for pumpkin-everything! Just kidding, the pumpkin craze is ridiculous. Do you really need to smell like a pumpkin? What you do need to smell is this pumpkin loaf - it is amazing. Made with pear sauce instead of sugar, it's a … Continue reading Pumpkin Loaf

Turkey Burgers with Feta

These are hands-down the best turkey burgers I have ever made! They are juicy, flavourful, and healthy! As an added bonus, each burger is only 4 SmartPoints on Weight Watchers. We used these burgers for our meal prep this week and added boiled beets and green beans, with an option of adding rice or quinoa. … Continue reading Turkey Burgers with Feta

Homemade Pie

Pie is one of my favourite desserts and now that I know how to make it from scratch, it's very dangerous! This pie recipe was handed down from M's grandmother to his mother, and then to us which makes it very special. Seriously, it's so special M carries a copy of it in his wallet... … Continue reading Homemade Pie

Baked Chicken with Red Chilli Sauce and Veggies

This week's meal prep is the first we have done since I joined Weight Watchers so we had the added bonus of figuring out the points for each meal! I have tried to calculate the SmartPoints based on the recipe and serving sizes I used. Each serving contains 3-4 oz of chicken, 1/4 cup of … Continue reading Baked Chicken with Red Chilli Sauce and Veggies

We made a stew, vegetables, and lentils and served it with pita bread. Traditional Ethiopian food is served with Injera and you can find … Continue reading Ethiopian Food – Take 1
