Easy Asian recipes to cook on weeknights or date nights that taste great and most can be made vegetarian!

From sushi and Vietnamese food to breakfast, pizza, fish and chips and special-occasion dinners, these are some of my favourite restaurants in Edmonton. Most of the places we visit are around Century Park, South Edmonton Common and south Edmonton, so the list leans heavily toward that part of the city. I’ve included what I normally order, what keeps me coming back and which locations we usually visit. Some are regular casual stops, while others are places we save for an anniversary, date night or occasional treat.

Mornings used to mean skipping breakfast or grabbing a $7 drive-thru burrito that left me sluggish by 10am. Now I spend one hour on Sunday making a batch of wraps, slice them in half, freeze them, and pull one out each morning. If you're someone who hits snooze three times and still expects to eat something decent, this is the gear and grocery list that made it actually work.

When I started to help people with holistic nutrition, most would ask me for better alternatives to their foods. The truth is, it's best to avoid packaged foods, but sometimes we have to, due to our busy lifestyle. These are the “better” things I like to keep in my kitchen.

Every December 25th used to be the same mess. Presents torn open, everyone starving, me scrambling in the kitchen while the family sat around waiting. Last year I finally figured out a full Christmas brunch spread that looks impressive but takes almost zero stress. If you host Christmas morning and want to actually sit down with your family instead of playing short-order cook, this is the lineup that changed everything for me.

Our house has been gluten-free for years, and I've learned that "gluten-free" and "actually good" don't always overlap. These are the brands and specific products my family keeps buying, not just once, but on repeat. No filler, nothing I'm guessing at.

I’m convinced snacks taste better at night while standing in the kitchen pretending nobody can see me 😂

Hanukkah 2026 starts at sundown on Friday, December 4 and runs through December 12, so these are the candles, menorahs, gelt, books and latke tools I would line up for all eight nights.

I am by no means a nutritionist, and this should never replace talking to a trained professional. However, these are some decently healthy(ish) snacks that I, as an athlete, have come to rely on.

Every weekend I'd drop $16-20 on avocado toast at some trendy brunch place and then stare at my sad, plain mashed avocado at home wondering why it tasted like nothing. Turns out the difference isn't technique — it's the right seasoning lineup. If you're tired of bland homemade avocado toast and you keep thinking ‘why doesn’t mine taste like that,' this is the exact shelf of stuff I built over six months of obsessive testing. Save yourself the trial and error.

Ever stood in the wine aisle staring at 200 bottles knowing you loved something last month but having zero clue what it was? I did that for years — buying the same disappointing Pinot over and over because I couldn't remember the good one. This is everything I use now to track tastings, store bottles properly, and actually learn what I like instead of guessing. If you're tired of winging it every Friday night, steal my whole setup.

Starting my micro bakery at home using an old wardrobe turned bake stand that I will roll into my driveway on my ‘open’ days. I hope you will come along with me for the journey.

Everything I got for halloween on my recent NYC trip as a halloween and autumn lover (and some things I regret not getting) 🎃👻

You spent two hours piping buttercream rosettes and then watched them smear against a foil-covered cookie sheet in the backseat of your car. I've been that person at the bake sale with lopsided cupcakes one too many times. This whole list is for the home baker who transports baked goods more than once a month and is tired of improvising with toothpicks and plastic wrap. Took me three school years and a lot of wasted frosting to land on gear that actually works.

From the mouth of a former barista and lifelong coffee enthusiast, here are my recs on beginning your at-home coffee journey! ☕️

There are an increasing number of brands who offer allergen-free products. These are the ones that are actually GOOD and worth your money, from a girl who was diagnosed with a tree nut allergy at 9 years old and who recently developed a gluten sensitivity in her 20s! Disclaimer: some of these products do include peanuts because I’m not allergic to those!

Not every Pinterest recipe is a good one, and half of them are way beyond my energy level. But these ones are repeat hits in our home! Enjoy!

Here’s my little food diary from Iceland — all the places I actually ate, warmed up, hid from the wind, and tried to convince myself I wasn’t about to accidentally order whale, puffin, or fermented shark (yes… all three were genuinely on menus, and no… I did not suddenly become a Viking). These are real spots from my trip, with real photos, real meals, and real opinions — no affiliate links, no nonsense, just the places that kept me fed, caffeinated, and alive in Iceland’s “four seasons in five minutes” weather. If you’re planning a trip, want honest recommendations, or just enjoy watching someone else dodge questionable seafood, this board is for you.

Long drives with hungry kids used to mean someone crying by mile three and me white-knuckling the steering wheel while blindly tossing goldfish into the backseat. If you spend half your road trips playing snack vending machine from the driver's seat, this lineup is what finally let me keep my eyes on the road and my sanity intact — took me two years of trial and error so you don't have to.

Aldi's is my 1st choice for shopping. Great selections and lots of specials. Their produce is so fresh and affordable. White bread costs $1.25 per loaf. You're not going to find that price anywhere else. Here you will find products from other stores as well as Aldi's.

We've lived aboard for five years and, through trial and error, we have narrowed down our kitchen gear to only the things we can't live without. Space saving, low power usage, and durable are the biggest requirements for us. We also look for items that have multiple uses so that we can have as varied a diet as possible even when we are off grid for weeks at a time! These recommendations also work great for your house or apartment!

I create recipe content for food brands, but I don’t have a picture-perfect kitchen or have room for a permanent studio. This list includes the compact filming equipment, movable surfaces, backgrounds, lighting, and styling tools I use or recommend for creating polished recipe videos with an iPhone. Everything is chosen to work in a small space, produce professional-looking content, and pack away when filming is finished.

Every holiday season I used to panic-buy candles and gift cards — until I started making garlic rosemary infused olive oil at home. Now people literally request it. If you want a homemade gift that looks like it came from a fancy Italian market but cost you maybe six bucks a bottle, this is everything I use from the oil to the labels to the wax seal on top. Took me three seasons of trial and error so you can nail it on your first batch.

Some of my fave Toronto eats as a foodie on a budget looking for diverse options

every cookbook you need on your shelf (& will actually use)

Candy addict sharing real opinions on what’s worth buying and what’s a skip. Focused mostly on flavored and gummy candy, with a few chocolate favorites mixed in. If there’s a candy out there, I’ll try it at least once and tell you exactly what I think.

Saturday mornings used to mean cooking in shifts. Pancakes first, then eggs, then bacon while everything else got cold under foil. If you're the one stuck at the stove for 45 minutes while everyone else sits at the table waiting, this is the gear that finally let me plate everything hot at once. Took me two years of frustrating breakfasts to land on this lineup.

Every Thanksgiving I'd pull a pie out of the oven with a beautiful filling and charcoal-black edges — and no amount of foil origami fixed it. If you're the person who stress-watches the oven window for 45 minutes or has ever scraped burnt crust off a pie plate at 11pm, this is everything I landed on after way too many ruined desserts. Took me three years and a lot of wasted butter to figure this out so you don't have to.

Must haves for all my start up bakers. Truly my biggest enjoyment baking with my little.

I, like many other moms, have had to cut dairy from my diet due to my breastfed baby's milk protein intolerance. It is so hard finding things to eat, so here's some of the things that have been working for me.

This should probably be called the best places to eat around NEPA (North East PA) so a lot of these are in the Scranton and surrounding areas!

Living in the heart of Uptown for 4 years made me fall in love with this crazy town - this is a list of my staples.

Soggy lettuce was killing every vinaigrette I made from scratch — I'd spend fifteen minutes whisking a perfect lemon tahini and then it would slide right off wet leaves into a puddle at the bottom of the bowl. If you've ever dumped a beautiful salad onto a plate only to watch it turn into a sad swamp, this is every tool and trick that fixed my salad situation for good. Took me two years of disappointing lunch preps to nail this down so you don't have to.
