This is my latest pesto combo and I absolutely love it. Mint is super fresh and vibrant and always reminds me of spring. It works really well here with broccoli, spinach and cashews, but you could certainly substitute other nuts or seeds.

CREAM OF BROCCOLI SOUP (dairy-free)

There is nothing better than a cozy bowl of soup to nourish the soul! Give my chicklets a plate of broccoli and it’s one complaint after another. But blend it up into a thick and creamy soup, and they’re asking for seconds.

SUPER SEED SLAW

SUPER SEED SLAW

I absolutely love this colourful seed-packed coleslaw.  It’s bright and beautiful with a variety of textures, plus it’s super easy to make and bursting with fresh flavour and health benefits.

I basically used every seed I had in my pantry for this salad, but feel free to use your choice of seeds and/or nuts.  They’re a great source of healthy fats and plant-based protein, and add a wonderful crunch to this family-friendly slaw.
