Dessert. Sweet potato. fries. They’re like churros you can feel good about. I can say this with absolute certainty since I ate SO many of these and felt that each time I made the decision to eat another fry, I was making the right decision. We’ve got cinnamon sugar sweet potato fries drizzled with chocolate tahini sauce and a…
I have a vegan fried sage pumpkin pasta recipe to share. It’s creamy, flavor-y, and is a great use of all those cans of pumpkin you impulse-bought at the grocery store. Oh, and in the spirit of flexitarianism, I suggest to all you cheese lovers out there to forget all that vegan nonsense I just said and add a…
Popcorn is such a wonderful thing, isn’t it? I truly believe I am a happier person because I eat it every night. This tasty, strange snack has been a very important part of my life, considering I have loved it dearly from the very start. I’ve since evolved from the microwavable stuff I used to eat as a…

It brings dishes to life and it’s rightly used in some form or another in about 85% of the world’s savory dishes that come to mind. People notice garlic’s…
I am a very particular pancake eater. In America, eating cake for breakfast is totally cool as long as it’s made in a pan or in the shape of an “O”. Young Autumn was also perfectly happy when a box of Dunkin Doughnuts (I grew up in Massachusetts, so no Tim Horton’s for me) appeared on our kitchen…
You know how pasta is the standard choice for pre-race carbo-loading? It’s such a classic choice that people may think you’re strange for not eating pasta the night before a race. People who care about running, that is. Anyway, just as pasta is the established pre-race meal, I have come to the conclusion that pizza is the perfect…
