Simple real food - and sometimes dessert🧁
The good stuff👇🏽
Instagram post 2182347363484876045_2502561 Copy Cat GF DF KFC (wow that’s a lot of acronyms). ⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ I mean why bthr to spl out whole wrds when u can get it done with less thn half the ltrs? Vowels are overrated. Like I’m a totally wasting my time writing this whole sentence out right now. 🙄😝⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ Neewayz (also big fan of making up words over here), after I made this Copycat KFC, J tried it and said: “I actually don’t like KFC that much. I prefer Popeyes” 🤦🏽‍♀️⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ J’s misguided preferences aside, these taste so close to the secret 11 herbs and spices that make KFC so addictive. Obviously you can make this gluten full by using regular flour instead of the arrowroot flour to coat the chicken, but it was a nice to have a gluten free option. Either way the flavour is all there!⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ Want to know what the secret herbs and spices are? Click the link in my profile for the recipe. ⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ Are you team Popeyes or team KFC?⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ #rueeats #whole30recipes #paleo #fbcigers #eatprettythings #cleaneating #foodiesofinstagram #shareyourtable #foodphotography #homemade #foodpic #surlatable #feedfeedglutenfree #foodsforthought #recipeoftheday #eatingfortheinsta #deliciousness #foodblogfeed #eatclean #sugarfree #feedfeed #buzzfeast #mississaugafoodie #tastethesix #torontofoodblog #kitchn #thenewhealthy ⁣ #healthyfood #realsimple #foodtographyschool
Instagram post 2177270208086357193_2502561 Been practicing my pour shots. (Special thanks to J for being my pour model).😛⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ Also I highly recommend pouring this #dairyfree cheez sauce over roasted cauliflower, pasta, or serve as a dip with veggies or nachos. ⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ It’s like cheez whiz got a real⁣ food makeover - and decided to go dairy free!⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ The secret is using cashews for the creamy factor and and nutritional yeast for the cheesy flavour. Nooch is not like actual yeast. It’s in the fungi family (like mushrooms) but has this intense cheesy flavour that makes a great cheese substitute. ⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ Recipe on the blog #linkinprofile⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ #rueeats #vegetarian #vegan #plantbased #foodiesofinstagram #f52grams #eatmoreplants #healthyfood #cleaneating #foodtographyschool #delicious #dinner #foodporn #fbcigers #sharefood #homemade #eating #feedfeed #feedfeedvegetarian #foodpics #hungry #foodgasm #foodsforthought #eatstherainbow #kitchn #thenewhealthy #mississaugafoodie #torontofoodblog
Instagram post 2173483310901420255_2502561 Happy Saturday! Decided to make this @basically giant no flip blueberry pancake for breakfast today. Peep my stories for the play by play 👀⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ What’s everyone doing this weekend? ⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ We got big plans: laundry, groceries, cleaning, meal prepping... exciting stuff going on over here. Adulting is so over rated!⁣😫 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ #weekendvibes #happysaturday #healthyfood #healthylifestyle #healthychoices #motivation #noexcuses #instagood #cleaneating #diet #fbcigers #rueeats #fbcigers #f52grams #cleaneating #foodsforthought #eatingfortheinsta #feedfeed #buzzfeast #mississaugafoodie #tastethesix #yyzfoodie #torontofoodblog #kitchn #thenewhealthy #healthyfood #realsimple #foodtographyschool
Instagram post 2172179344200611303_2502561 Icymi dairy and my tummy are no longer friends. 😢 So I’m on a quest to reduce my dairy consumption and not miss all the fun things in life. ⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ Like this dairy free Mac n’ cheez. It is a variation on @detoxinista ‘s vegan Mac n cheez with the seasonally appropriate addition of butternut squash! It gives the sauce this vibrant orange colour (like the boxed stuff) and ups the nutritional profile and tastes so creamy.⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ Full recipe is on the blog. ⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ It’s comfort food without the guilt or the tummy aches! 😝 ya feel me?⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ #rueeats #vegetarian #vegan #dairyfreerecipes #plantbased #foodiesofinstagram #f52grams #eatmoreplants #theundiet #healthyfood #cleaneating #foodtographyschool #delicious #dinner #foodporn #fbcigers #homemade #eating #feedfeed #feedfeedvegetarian #foodpic #foodpics #hungry #foodgasm #foodsforthought #eatstherainbow #kitchn #thenewhealthy #mississaugafoodie #torontofoodblog
Instagram post 2169060914425739895_2502561 What are you doing with your extra hour this weekend?⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Ofcourse I’d spend it doing something food related. We spent the evening yesterday with my family making pasta from scratch! 🍝⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ While it took a bit of time to do it was so fun! We kept it simple but just tossing the fresh pasta in some garlic butter and served with some sautéd Brussel sprouts, shrimp and chilli oil on the side. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Pasta is the best. But fresh pasta. That’s a whole other level of yum!🤤
Instagram post 2167077622755321716_2502561 It’s time for your weekly Dosa something yummy! #imsopunny 😝⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ Now that our Whole30 is over I can get back to eating all the gluten and dairy filled goodness that is a dosa!⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ This breakfast dosa is a bit different than the traditional fermented dosa batter. It’s a quicker at home version, that comes together as fast as making pancakes. The batter contains a mix of rice flour, semolina, and oat flour (which also boots the fibre content). It can also be made gluten free by replacing the semolina with more rice flour. The tangy flavour comes from the yogurt in the batter. Or make it dairy free by substituting yogurt for coconut yogurt - or coconut milk with a squeeze of lemon 😁⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ It’s called ‘breakfast dosa’ but really it’s good anytime. Who am I to tell food when it should or shouldn’t be eaten?!⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ Full recipe on the blog. Or come peep my IGTV 👀 ⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ #rueeats #vegetarian #plantbased #foodiesofinstagram #f52grams #eatmoreplants #healthyfood #cleaneating #foodtographyschool #delicious #dinner #food #foodporn #fbcigers #sharefood #homemade #eating #feedfeed #feedfeedvegetarian #foodpic #foodpics #hungry #foodgasm #foodsforthought #eatstherainbow #kitchn #thenewhealthy #mississaugafoodie #torontofoodblog
Instagram post 2166775672914330083_2502561 How do you spell candy with two letters?⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ C-and-Y ! 😝⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ Happy Halloween to all the ghosts and ghouls out there! Hope your Halloween is full of more c-and-y and less TP (toilet paper) for my non-Canadian friends 😛 ⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ It’s business as usual for boring ole me. J gets to dress up for work so he’s going as kylo ren. I decided on a low-key-work-appropriate nod to Princess Leia. And I am only just now realizing how weirdly Oedipal that is...😆 swipe to take a peek 👀⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ Who’s dressing up today? Send me a pic I wanna see!⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ Stay dry friends. It’s trick or wet feet today!⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ #haloween #happyhaloween #haloween2019 #trickortreat #haloweendecor #letterboard #atumnvibes #falldecor #sweaterweather #pumpkinseason
Instagram post 2162065221764807261_2502561 Did you know cassava or yuca has a chemical in it that, if eaten raw, can turn into cyanide in your body?! Once cooked, it goes away and is totally fine to eat. I know. I’ve eaten plenty and I’m fine 😛. ⁣⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣⁣ These mogo (aka cassava chips aka yuca fries)⁣ are double cooked just to be sure. So you know they are safe. First I boil them, then pan fry to get them crisp. Add a sprinkle of salt and red chilli powder or my tangy masala to make them irresistible. Fries will never be the same. ⁣⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣⁣ Full recipe on the blog. 😁⁣⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣⁣ These are so friggin’ addictive! J and I fight over who gets the last one every time! What’s one food you can’t get enough of?⁣⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣⁣ #rueeats #whole30recipes #paleo #fbcigers #eatprettythings #cleaneating #foodiesofinstagram #foodphotography #homemade #foodpic #forkyeah #surlatable #feedfeedglutenfree #foodsforthought #recipeoftheday #eatingfortheinsta #deliciousness #foodblogeats #eatclean #sugarfree #feedfeed #buzzfeast #mississaugafoodie #tastethesix #torontofoodblog #kitchn #thenewhealthy ⁣⁣ #healthyfood #realsimple #foodtographyschool
Instagram post 2156991308068354845_2502561 A while back I shared these Merchant Family Ninja Kebabs that my mother-in-law taught me. Finally got around to making them a permanent fixture on the blog. 😁⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ And they really do kick butt in the flavour department. ⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ One of the secrets to the flavour is using crushed coriander seeds in the meatball mixture. They add a crunchy burst of flavour as you bite into them.⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ I also modified the recipe to make them gluten free by subbing the traditional buckwheat flour for arrowroot flour.⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ We love to eat these straight up with some ketchup (and cassava chips- which may or may not be next weeks recipe 😉). But they also make great meatballs in tomato sauce or add to a curry and call it kofta. ⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ How do you like them meatballs? 😁⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ #rueeats #whole30recipes #paleo #fbcigers #eatprettythings #cleaneating #foodiesofinstagram #foodphotography #homemade #foodpic #forkyeah #surlatable #feedfeedglutenfree #foodsforthought #recipeoftheday #eatingfortheinsta #deliciousness #foodblogeats #eatclean #sugarfree #feedfeed #buzzfeast #mississaugafoodie #tastethesix #torontofoodblog #kitchn #thenewhealthy ⁣ #healthyfood #realsimple #foodtographyschool
