A Perfect Pear Crisp Recipe | Vegan & Gluten-Free

March 26, 2017 By Sarah Leave a Comment

“>

I LOVE that my son loves to eat fruits and vegetables, and consider myself lucky because he is really willing to try anything at least once these days. Great right? But let me tell you what happens when well-meaning grandparents hear “my grandson likes pears” and bring them faster than you can eat them? I knew the situation was bad, but actually counted this morning as I was putting away groceries and realised that we had 15 pears in the fridge! I knew the easiest fix was to make some sort of pear dessert, and made what turned out to be the most perfect pear crisp recipe for dessert for Friday night dinner!

I grew up with apple crumble as a regular in our home, but am not sure that we ever had pear crisp, so I looked online for some recipe inspiration. As far as reviews go this recipe by Ina Garten had the best reviews by far so I decide to use it as my starting point….

Red Lentil, Sweet Potato and Pumpkin Soup (a.k.a. “Orange Soup”)

March 10, 2017 By Sarah 8 Comments

Baby, it’s cold outside (I love that song), and we have finally turned on our heating for the winter, which means I can start making soup! Maybe not the most logical of conclusions (why wait?) but I have a thing about eating soup when it is warm out, which it is here for most of the year. So I wait patiently for these few months of winter when I can enjoy a warm bowl of one of my favourite feel good foods, like this red lentil, sweet potato and pumpkin soup, which my son creatively calls “Orange Soup“.

Easy Roasted Brussel Sprouts

February 25, 2017 By Sarah 2 Comments

For the first time in over 6 years I came across fresh brussel sprouts at the grocery store. I almost didn’t buy them because I still have a bit of a trauma from the boiled to death sprouts of my childhood. But I do love oven roasted brussel sprouts (or any other roast vegetable, for that matter), so I took advantage of this rare occasion and picked some up to have with dinner. And they were delicious!
