I made Thai chicken Buddha bowls for supper last night. It makes a really good left over lunch too. I posted the recipe in the comment section. I love serving mine with some quinoa and a lot of kale. My favourite veggies in this bowl are red peppers, carrots, cucumber, purple cabbage, sugar snap peas, green onions and cilatro. Our girls did find it a bit spicy but I think it’s the right amount of spice. If you are vegetarian, you could use tofu instead of chicken as a protein. I can’t say enough of the peanut sauce. It’s delicious.

Oatmeal is so good for you! I’ve posted a recipe in the comment section for making the perfect rolled oats. I love topping mine with banana, almond butter, honey and h**p seeds.

One of my favourite things to do is cook alone in a quiet kitchen with music on. Everyone is sleeping in so I decided to make banana muffins for when they wake up, they will smell the aromas of freshly baked muffins. I posted the recipe in the link.

I haven't posted in a while! I'm still cooking a lot. Tonight I'm roasting some broccoli stems with kale and carrots served with a pistachio-crusted salmon. This broccoli roasts beautifully at 400 for about 10 min: drizzle olive oil, salt and pepper.

Do you like squash soup? I made this soup today in the instant pot. It was delicious. I added the recipe in the comments. I also didn't add the bacon to it as the recipe suggested, and I thought it was perfect just like that.

It’s peach season, and they are delicious! Here is a green peach smoothie recipe! Grab some peaches and make this smoothie. You will need 1 cup of unsweetened coconut milk, one handful of spinach, a chunk of cucumber cut into pieces, one orange, 1.5 peaches ( leave the skin on! So much nutrition), 2 tbsp ground flax and some ice to make the smoothie cold. Blend and enjoy!
