Our go-to recipe for roasted asparagus with watercolor illustration by me and hand lettering by my mom Shelley. This is a fun and fresh weeknight side dish that's totally customizable: you can change up the toppings any way you like!

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

Very delicious recipe from Italy

Fresh Italian variation of a Greek classic salad

In our 20s, my sister and I used to do a lot of long distance bike camping, and our go-to cooking method amounted to “wrap it up in tin foil and throw it in the fire!” This breakfast my sis invented is GENIUS. Multigrain bagel for fibre, apple for ... fibre as well, I suppose, and chocolate caramel for fun!

This quick version of the Vegetable Biryani although easy is bold and flavourful. It's lightly spiced with turmeric, cumin, coriander, garam masala and other warm spices.The vegetables in this Indian rice dish can be changed around - perhaps add bell peppers, potatoes or cauliflower. You can add a teaspoon of cayenne pepper for a kick if desired.

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!

Food Geometry | In thinking about the geometry of food, I needed to look no further than my garden, ripe with all the makings for a grilled pizza: tomatoes, chives, basil & oregano. As a letterpress printer I like experimenting with forms, and pressure printing is a wonderful way to capture the details in plants. I arranged the leaves of the ingredients on my Vandercook 4 press, inked them up, layed cotton paper over top, and rolled the carriage down the press bed to impress the images into the page. The tomatoes were a beautifully explosive disaster, so I gave myself permission to print circles instead. I then went back & printed the tomato leaves overtop the red circles; the perfect final touch. As I printed the aromatic oils were released from the leaves, making my mouth water. The hand lettering was done with a fountain pen, rather than wood or metal type, to capture the spontaneity and ease of my new favorite late-summer meal.

Food Geometry

When I look at my sister's garden - a true work of natural beauty and art - I see how the shapes and arrangement of each vegetable and fruit come together to form it's own version of food geometry!

Food Geometry. This is a super healthy and super easy to make pizza, despite its geometric precision ;o)
