We live mostly plant based and love raw food! Normally you will find chick peas in Falafels, but if you want raw food you have to find something in exchange! We took zucchini instead and we LOVE this! Just try!

Beans around the World...Ahoy Matey! This recipe is said to be from the mid 1800’s, from a staple of “Yankee” real cooking, Durgin-Park in Boston, sadly now closed, but I have the recipe from a visit a few years ago. The Best baked beans ever, deep brown, and delicious! The key is, you have to keep them moist over the six hours of baking, adding water slowly, as the recipe says, “you can’t just let the pot sit in the oven’...and don’t flood the beans! You can leave the pork out, I never use it and half the sugar...you won’t be disappointed! A simple & perfect comfort dish on damp, grey days to warm your soul, and hey, they are “Navy” beans after all😝

Sundal is a common evening snack consumed with relish throughout South India.It is made with Garbanzo beans also known as chick peas.It is common man's protein rich diet.This is distributed in places of worship,in beaches where during summer's they are garnished with raw mango pieces to give a tangy effect and during festivals in India.It is easy to make and tastes really yummy!!

Baked beans are one of my favourite comfort foods. In Eastern Canada, a traditional winter activity is to visit a "cabane à sucre", or sugar shack where they produce maple syrup. Part of the experience is a meal where foods like sausages, eggs, pancakes and baked beans are enjoyed in a communal setting! Traditionally, these beans are baked with lard but this recipe is vegetarian for all to enjoy!

I recently made this salad, it’s simple and yummy for sandwiches or eat it with other vegetables.

I am so drawn to the cookbook illustrations of the 1950's, so simple and geometric. This is my classic vinaigrette recipe with a soupscon of Canadian maple syrup. Delicious on any salad!
