    January 18, 2021

    Egg roll in a bowl is a simple, one pot wonder that gives you all the flavours of an egg roll sans the wrapper. It has become a go-to for me in terms of meal prep and also for a quick, think on your feet dinner since it takes all of 20 minutes to make!…

    Breakfast Egg Muffins… Part Deux (Gluten & Grain Free, Keto, Paleo, Whole 30)

    February 25, 2020

    I’m always looking to revamp my recipes and this recipe is one of my favourites. This version is different from the original in that instead of beating the eggs together, you crack one each in each muffin mold. Top with your favourite toppings and bake….easy peasy! What I love about this version is that you…

    Overnight Oats

    May 7, 2018

Hello Everyone⁣ ⁣ February 4th is World Cancer Hello Everyone⁣
⁣
February 4th is World Cancer Day, and it is 3 months from when I first received my colorectal cancer diagnosis. ⁣
⁣
Although colorectal cancer tends to have a good prognosis, I remember feeling overwhelmed, frightened, in complete shock, and powerless. I am grateful to have had life changing surgery that saved my life a few weeks ago 🙏🏻 💜⁣
⁣
Today, I would like to acknowledge the warriors that are newly diagnosed, those who are in treatment, those supporting and treating people with cancer, those living and thriving post cancer, and all of those missing and grieving loved ones they have lost to this horrible disease. ⁣
⁣
Since my diagnosis, I am happy to share this journey and raise awareness via my @gutsygirldiaries account. Together we are stronger 💜💪🏻⁣

Hello Friends! ⁣ ⁣ December 1 to December 7 is Hello Friends! ⁣
⁣
December 1 to December 7 is Crohn’s and Colitis awareness week. This year, this week has a whole new meaning for me as an IBD warrior. ⁣
⁣
As many of you know by following my journey @gutsygirldiaries, I have had IBD, specifically Ulcerative Colitis (UC), for 25 years. There have been many ups and downs, and I’m so grateful to have been in remission for the last 4.5 years. ⁣
⁣
At the end  of Sept 2022, I had my routine surveillance screening colonoscopy. It didn’t go as planned, and my doctor found a polyp that she couldn’t remove. I got my results a few weeks ago, and ..⁣
⁣
..I have colorectal cancer. ⁣
⁣
Hearing this news came as a shock to me, and I am still processing, but as always, I will continue to fight.  I try to remain as positive as possible, especially because my kids don’t know yet, but It’s been a rough couple months.⁣ 💔
⁣
The stage has not been determined, so  I don’t know yet if I need treatment, but I will most definitely need surgery which will result in me having a permanent ileostomy. ⁣
⁣
Today I want to make IBD visible by sharing this new journey with you, and encourage you to book your colonoscopy and get checked 😊
⁣
Much love 💙 xo⁣

Good morning friends! ⁣ ⁣ All the pumpkin reci Good morning friends! ⁣
⁣
All the pumpkin recipes left me with some leftover pumpkin and so I decided to make one of my favourite fall drinks, a pumpkin spice latte aka a PSL 🧡⁣
⁣
This PSL is dairy free and the warm spices make it so comforting. Check out the recipe below:⁣
⁣
•2 tbsp puréed pumpkin⁣
•1 cup nut milk (I used @milkadamia )⁣
•1/4 tsp nutmeg and allspice⁣
•1/2 tsp cinnamon ⁣
•1 tsp vanilla ⁣
•1 cup brewed coffee (I used @nespresso.ca )⁣
•Honey to taste ⁣
⁣
Heat the pumpkin, 1/2 cup nut milk, spices, and vanilla on the stove. Whisk until combined and set aside. Add honey to taste. Froth the other 1/2 cup of nut milk (I used the Nespresso Aeroccino). While the milk is frothing, make your coffee. Add the pumpkin mixture to the coffee and top with frothed nut milk. Enjoy! ⁣
⁣
Happy Monday! 💜xo ⁣

Hello friends!⁣ ⁣ Risotto is such a comfortin Hello friends!⁣
 ⁣
Risotto is such a comforting dish, which I love enjoying all year round. Will the fall season and holidays around the corner, I wanted to create a risotto that could work as both a comforting fall meal and a holiday side dish.⁣
 ⁣
The addition of pumpkin makes this risotto perfectly seasonal, and I love how the sweetness from the honey and the smokiness from the bacon really enhances the pumpkin flavour.⁣

Hello friends…it’s pumpkin season! ⁣ ⁣ Th Hello friends…it’s pumpkin season! ⁣
 ⁣
This gluten free, dairy free pumpkin spice loaf is so moist and flavourful, plus it gives me all the fall feels! It is so easy to make: mix the wet ingredients, mix the dry ingredients, add them together, pour into your pan, and bake….so simple!⁣
 ⁣
I used a combination of 1-1 gluten free flour along with gluten free rolled oats which give this loaf an amazing texture. The pumpkin obvi keeps it super moist as well!⁣
 ⁣
One thing I love about this pumpkin loaf is that it is not super sweet. You can totally enjoy it on its own, or you can top it with the dairy free maple glaze in the recipe if you’re craving something more decadent.⁣

Recipe is up on the blog and linked in my bio …check it out!⁣

Hello friends!⁣ ⁣ If you are like me, then you Hello friends!⁣
⁣
If you are like me, then you are always in the mood for something sweet, especially around 3pm in the afternoon 😉⁣
⁣
I made these chocolate covered dates on a whim because I was craving something nutty, chocolatey, and sweet, and boom. These hit the spot so good, and they legit taste like I’m eating a snickers bar, without all the additives, preservatives, etc⁣
⁣
Medjool dates are naturally sweet, and they have a caramel-like texture on the inside which makes them so satisfying. These dates have many health benefits, such as they are high in fibre, potassium which give me that much needed boost of energy in the afternoon. My kids love them and they also love getting their little fingers dirty in helping me make these as part of our Sunday meal prep!⁣
⁣
Check out the recipe below!⁣
⁣
Ingredients:⁣
•10-12 Medjool dates, pitted and halved⁣
•¼ cup nut butter (I used crunchy peanut)⁣
•½ cup chocolate chips (I used @enjoylifefoods )⁣
•1 tsp coconut oil⁣
⁣
Directions:⁣
1. After the dates have been pitted and halved, fill the centre with nut butter and set aside⁣
2. In a double boiler (or microwave) melt the chocolate chips with the coconut oil⁣
3. Line a baking dish with parchment paper⁣
4. Dip each date into the chocolate mixture and place on the baking sheet⁣
5. Place the baking sheet into the freezer until the chocolate has set⁣
⁣
Enjoy!⁣
⁣
💜xo⁣
