✨PIZZA MARGHERITA ✨⁣
Made pizza for dinner last night and thinking of having another pizza night this weekend. The recipe comes via @robertaspizza for @nytcooking and it's without a doubt my favorite pizza dough. ⁣
⁣
The trick when baking homemade pizza is to pre-heat your oven to its highest temperature (I had mine in convection mode at 550 F)The pizza stone ( I prefer steel) has to be in it and placed on the lower rack. 4 minutes was all the time it took to bake them👌🏽⁣
⁣
⁣
I'll try to have this recipe on the blog by the weekend so that you can make it at home and also, I'm sending you a big virtual hug. Let's take a big breath and do the things that feel right to us during this time. Xo⁣

I've also been trying to keep a routine. Working out at home, reading, making recipes from other food blogs, and creating simple meals to share with my family and with you. Like this lemony Israeli salad and Labneh on toast.⁣ And even though I love to lounge around wearing comfy leggings and a sweatshirt, lately I've been dressing up just to be at home. It has helped me with my mood, and at this point we have to do anything that cheers us up right? Which brings me to this jumpsuit from @molly_bracken_officiel , it feels like a second skin 👌🏽and comfort is all that matters right now. ⁣ ⁣⁣

✨OVERNIGHT OATS WITH CARAMELIZED BANANAS, BERRIES AND A HONEY TUMERIC MAPLE DRIZZLE.✨⁣
⁣
A few weeks ago, I was part of a breakfast challenge with @danone.canada .We were divided in groups of three and had to create our own recipe using the contents of a Mistery bo (Cue Master Chef music ☺️)⁣ @ushappyfour @thedelilahblog and I, came up with a hearty bowl overnight oats, topped with caramelized bananas, berries and a honey tumeric maple drizzle. The recipe was simple, but then again, simple is my motto. In life and in the kitchen!⁣
⁣
What made the overnight oats stand out, was that we used Danone 100% Natural yogurt instead of only milk, and it made the oats extra creamy. The yogurt also has such a delicious flavour and my favorite part, no sugar added 🙌🏽⁣
⁣
At the event, I also learned that Danone is B- Corporation certified. Meaning that they help our community by partnering with The Breakfast Club of Canada to provide a healthy breakfast to children in need.⁣
⁣
Our recipe, ended up winning the challenge and I am sharing it with you below!⁣
⁣
Ingredients⁣
⁣
1/2 cup + 2 tbsp large flake oats⁣
1 cup Danone 100% Natural Yogurt (natural or vanilla)⁣
4 tbsp milk⁣
1tbsp maple syrup + 1 tsp⁣
1 cup mixed berries (I've used blueberries and strawberries)⁣
1/2 tbsp butter⁣
1/2 banana⁣
⁣
In a medium bowl, mix the oats, yogurt, milk and maple syrup. Let stand for s few hours or overnight.⁣
In a cast iron pan, melt the butter at medium heat. Add the bananas, and cook for about 30 seconds. Flip the bananas to cook the other side, and add the maple syrup.⁣
⁣
Just before serving, top the oats with berries, caramelized bananas and a bit it the honey turmeric maple drizzle 🍯⁣
⁣
For the drizzle: we used an already made honey with turmeric, but at home, you can mix 1 tbsp manuka honey+ with 1 tsp turmeric powder and 1tbsp maple syrup. Mix well until smooth and drizzle on top of the oats just before serving.⁣

We could all use delciously comforting food right now. So today on the blog, I'm sharing the easiest buffalo cauliflower tacos you'll ever make🌮🌮 With ingredients that you probably have at home.⁣
⁣
I've used corn tortillas (but feel free to use flour ones if you prefer) and topped them with a luscious avocado and cilantro crema, crunchy purple cabbage, a lemony tomato salsa and crispy cauliflower. ⁣
⁣
⁣
For the cauliflower, I used the Air- Fry function in my new @frigidairecanada range. You get that crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, with little or no oil. So from sweet potato and zucchini fries to tofu and coconut shrimp, I've been using the airfry non- stop👌🏽⁣
Find the recipe on the link on my bio!⁣

Today I'm sharing 2 simple, weekday recipes that you can have for dinner in less than 30 minutes 🙌🏽 Quick for those nights when you want something more convenient, but packed with flavour.⁣
⁣
As you know by now, our meals at home put vegetables first, and about twice a week, we include fish. @highlinercanada has 2 options we love. ⁣
The first is their English Style Haddock fillets. Wild caught and slightly battered, they're not only great for fish and chips, but also delicious with a Mediterranean pasta.⁣
⁣
Recipe⁣
2 Highliner Canada English Style Haddock fillets⁣
250 grams spaghetti⁣
3 tbsp olive oil⁣
3 garlic cloves, minced ⁣
1/2 cup breadcrumbs⁣
1 cup parsley, chopped⁣
1 tsp chili flakes⁣
1/4 tsp salt⁣
3/4 cup cherry tomatoes ⁣
1/4 cup Kalamata olives⁣
1/4 cup Feta cheese⁣
⁣
Preheat your oven at 450 F. Bake the fish for 27 minutes, turning once. In a large frying pan, pour in the olive oil and heat over medium heat, add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds string often. Add the breadcrumbs, parsley, chili flakes, salt, tomatoes and olives. Cook for 5 minutes string frequently and set aside.⁣
Cook the spaghetti until al dente, about 11 minutes. Drain and mix with the tomato and Kalamata mixture. Top with feta and serve with the Haddock fillets.⁣
⁣
The second recipe features Highliner's Fish Wings. Made with a bit of Frank's hot sauce, they are crispy, super flavourful and have the perfect amount of heat.⁣
Enjoy them with sweet potato fries, guacamole and a garlicky feta sauce that you'll be putting on everything 🙏🏽👌🏽⁣
⁣
Recipe⁣
1 cup yogurt ⁣
1/2 feta + 1 tbsp ⁣
Juice of 1 lemon ⁣
Sea salt and pepper⁣
1 tbsp olive oil⁣
2 cloves of garlic⁣
2 tbsp chives.⁣
⁣
In a blender, process the yogurt, feta, lemon juice, salt, pepper, olive oil and garlic until smooth. Top with 1 tbsp of feta and chives.⁣

✨ Roasted vegetables over labneh and poached egg✨for the next little while, I'll be creating recipes that you can make at home with simple ingredients. ⁣
For this recipe, you can easily make Labneh at home (recipe below) and all you'll need is any vegetables you have on hand, an egg, and pita bread (optional)⁣
⁣
To make the Labneh, all you need is⁣
900 gr yogurt⁣
1 tsp sea salt ⁣
1 clove garlic, minced⁣
⁣
Line a medium strainer with 2 layers of cheesecloth. Place the strainer over a bowl big enough to hold the strainer. In another bowl, mix the yogurt, salt and garlic. Pour it over the cheesecloth- lined strainer and let rest in the fridge for 24-48 hours. I usually only wait 24. ⁣
⁣
For the rest of this recipe, place 1/2 cauliflower head (cut in florets) 1 cup sliced mushrooms, 1 cup cherry tomatoes, 1 medium zucchin, and 1 cup chopped eggplant on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper and a dash of smoked paprika. Roast or bake at 450 F x 20 minutes, stirring often.⁣
⁣
In a separate baking sheet, add 1 can of chickpeas, 2 tbsp olive oil, salt, pepper, and a dash of cummin.Mix well and Place in the oven and roast for 8 minutes, stirring halfway through. (At the same temperature)⁣
⁣
Poach an egg (you can also boil or fry it)⁣
⁣
Once the vegetables are ready, spread some labneh on a plate ( I had Za'atar a at home and added a bit on top) add some roaasted vegetables, chickpeas and a poached egg.⁣ Xo
