Updated May 16, 2011 I really liked this meal. It was easy, filling, and loaded with protein!! Heat up your tortillas. In a small sauce pan, warm up your black beans with the onion and cumin. Fry up your eggs or scramble your egg whites. Place the eggs on the flour tortilla. Top with the beans. Next, add all of your toppings-tomatoes, cheese, avocados, cilantro, and lime juice.

I’m in a bit of a veg-obsessed state at the moment. My absolute favourites right now are beetroot and cauliflower and I have a feeling my family are going to beg me to stop serving them these two vegetables in every way, shape and form pretty soon as they are appearing on our dinner table almost every day. This cauliflower soup being in rotation regularly. The weather has been quite icy here over the last two weeks and so a comforting soup was just what was needed a few nights ago....

Updated October 06, 2020 I cut the strawberries in half tossed them with agave nectar and a little turbinado sugar. I placed them on a baking sheet and roasted them in the oven for about 30 minutes. While the strawberries were roasting I went back to bed to rest. I love how little work is involved for this delicious recipe:) I took the strawberries out when they were soft and the juices were bubbling....

Updated March 26, 2019 Caleb has decided he doesn’t need to nap anymore. Ok, I will give him a little credit, he usually falls asleep for 20-30 minutes, but then he is wide awake and ready to play. I admire his energy, but it makes it difficult for mama to get things done. My work and personal time are very limited these days…and that includes my lunch time. I try to keep my lunches simple because I never know how much time I will have to cook or eat....

I know that with a name like “bitter melon,” I’m going to need to do some convincing to get you to try this. I know it looks a bit funky too. But forget that for a moment. If you want to bring about better health for you and your family, bitter melon is a great way to make that happen. Stir fried bitter melon gives it a flavor that’s nothing like the name suggests....

I like my sweet and I like my savory but I LOVE when sweet and savory fall in love and make fantastical sweet salty babies. Like chocolate covered potato chips. And watermelon with feta.

Over the years I’ve cooked in different home kitchens using different stoves and equipment. After many experiments and comparisons, carbon steel pans have become one of my essential pieces of equipment, and it’s the pan I use most frequently, almost daily. I covered in a previous post why you shouldn’t use a wok, and the best stir fry equipment depending on your kitchen setup. Long story short, I choose to use carbon steel pans because they’re suitable for most home kitchens, where you have limited space and a stove that’s not as powerful as in a commercial kitchen....
