The “Real” Jennifer Aniston “Friends Salad”
I hate to break it to you, but…. It turns out that the famous “Friends” salad which has been making its rounds on the internet for the last couple of years, is not exactly the salad that the girls were lunching on daily, on the set of friends. What?? Like what??? Hmmmm….. Ok, I’m not really that surprised, but I wanted to believe, didn’t you? LOL Upon further investigation, it doesn’t appear that there was actually any footage or proof of Jennifer telling us that this was indeed “The Salad”. So, how did the Fake Friends Salad even come about? I have no idea. However I will tell you that…

Well have you seen the ridiculous price of cauliflower lately?? I just could not justify it. But finally last week a sale…. And I bought the most beautiful, big cauliflower. EVER.

Warm Potato + Green Bean Salad (plant based + vegan friendly)
Need a delicious winter salad and side dish? I’ve got one for you. It’s a simple, easy recipe I had not prepared in a long while, which surprised me when I came across it, because I really love it. I blame summer and its amazing bounty of fresh greens and tomatoes, which I tend to live on for months. Oh summer, I miss uuuu already…… And when that season comes to an end, salads kinda lose their appeal to me. Does this happen to you? Eating leaves just doesn’t cut it anymore. My tummy needs something heartier. This potatoes + green beans salad satisfies that craving perfectly, because it is…

Cocoa + Peanut Butter Overnight Oats (vegan friendly)
Starting the day off with a healthy breakfast isn’t always easy. Sometimes, we get stuck in a rut and have the same thing over and over and over. Not only boring but a missed opportunity to get better food in you and start the day right. I was way overdue for a change, and also in need of making an effort to reduce my dairy intake. What was needed were alternatives that were both good for you and great tasting. The problem is that I really really love Greek yogurt. And the cheese… OMG I love cheese. So this is was no easy task. Thankfully I have a son-in-law studying…

White Wine Sangria with Peaches, Mango + Strawberries
Here’s a delicious way to enjoy white wine this summer. A white wine sangria is a fruity but not too sweet version of the traditional red wine sangria. It’s a great choice for a starter cocktail. Serve it up along with some yummy appetizers and munchies and you are all set. This is a no fuss type of drink. It comes together very easily and quickly, especially if you use frozen fruit. However…all good things require time to become fabulous…. You will need to plan it in advance, as it needs to chill for at least an hour, allowing all the flavours to meld together. Well worth the wait. If…
