(version française plus bas!) The other day, I stumbled upon some burdock root at my favourite produce store. I was really curious to see it sold as a root vegetable, as I am more familiar with the dried root that I use in herbal tea blends. Well, the fresh root is delicious!

Cauliflower fried rice \\ Riz frit de chou-fleur
(version française plus bas!) I love fried rice. I love it so much I usually end up eating two or three portions instead of one every time I cook fried rice. As you can imagine, this is not the healthiest of options and it doesn’t help make you feel light and comfortable. So, I hadContinue reading “Cauliflower fried rice \\ Riz frit de chou-fleur”

Sushi Rice Dip, a recipe review
For a while now I have been addicted to Tasty’s recipe videos. I love their style, the way they edit, and the food the make always looks so good and easy to make. Not all their recipes are vegan, but they often are. This morning, I stumbled upon their Sushi Rice Dip video. I showedContinue reading “Sushi Rice Dip, a recipe review”
One-Pan Rice Dish (for lazy days and cooks)
Autumn really is setting in, and with the cold weather, I have been craving comfort food… or deep fried anything. Of course, I could resort to vegan poutines, cakes, or chips (I’m making myself hungry now!), but as I try to keep on the healthier side of food, this is what I cooked tonight. IContinue reading “One-Pan Rice Dish (for lazy days and cooks)”
