Oatmeal Spelt Banana Bread [Vegan] | EmmaEats

Oatmeal Spelt Banana Bread, 2 ways [Vegan or Dairy-Free]

August 15, 2013 by EmmaEats

The first day of school will be here in a flash. Truth be told, I’m not ready for the first day of school quite yet. And, I’m pretty certain Emma isn’t either. How about you? Are you and the kids ready to call it quits on summer vacation already? Since the first few days of school will be rather bittersweet, I’m hoping to ease the bitterness with a few treats including these ever popular spelt crust pizza buns and this banana […]

Quick Udon Soup

March 28, 2013 by EmmaEats

Sometimes you just need to get a meal on the table. Stat. And if it’s fast, flexible and healthy, all the better. This is that meal. Days can go by so quickly with such a wide array of activities on everyone’s schedules. Add in the countless items needing attention around the house and no wonder it feels easy to turn to fast food or other unhealthy options when mealtime comes around. This quick udon soup offers a healthful alternative to those […]

Get the Balance Right — Homemade Caramel Corn, 4 ways

August 9, 2012 by EmmaEats

We’re fresh off a visit to Disney World. One of Emma’s favourite Disney treats, among the many, is caramel corn. In general, it’s off-limits since most varieties are plastered with peanut warnings or contain added nuts. So we’re not talking just any caramel corn here. This is a nut-free, explicitly-stated-on-the-package kind which we only find at one shop over on Main Street. On past trips, we’ve even returned home with a few bags. This time, however, we didn’t have to! […]

Wonderful One – Lemon Olive Oil Layer Cake with Coconut Whipped Cream Frosting

July 5, 2012 by EmmaEats

Let me start by saying I cannot stop eating this cake. I have made two of these cakes in the past 2 weeks. And no, I didn’t eat both of them all myself – one was actually for Katie’s first birthday party. What a glorious day! Our dear little Katie soaked up all the love from our family and friends that summer sunshine-filled afternoon. She made her entrance after nearly all of the guests arrived and socialized while eating tonnes […]

A rose by any other name – Beet Green and Feta Triangles

June 21, 2012 by EmmaEats

Triangles, burek, spanakopita, téftlonkopita (ok, I made that one up with the help of Google’s translate tool) – whatever we call them, these are some pretty popular tidbits in our house. Recently, I read that beet greens are edible, tasty and quite nutritious. They’re actually in the same family as spinach, chard and quinoa — mmm, good company. Beet greens are high in vitamins A, C and K plus fibre and protein. I needed to find a way to incorporate these into […]

In between meals… — Chewy Cranberry Chocolate Chip Granola Bars

March 3, 2011 by EmmaEats

Most of our friends (with and without children) are always looking for healthy, portable, easy to assemble snacks. When I was pregnant with Emma, I was looking for the same. I ate many All Bran bars, blueberries, Babybel cheeses and baby cut carrots, and although it satisfied my need to eat constantly, I would have been happier to have a bit more variety. I posted a granola recipe awhile back that is incredibly popular in our household and thought would […]

During summer heatwaves, our air conditioner just can’t keep up. In fact, yesterday, the thermostat in our dining room read 29C. We’ve been known to eat by LED candlelight - it’s very romantic when we aren’t sweating so much! . As a result, our (indoor) kitchen closes for a significant window in the summer and the barbecue becomes the primary place for food prep. We’ve made many meals of chili, fish tacos, pizza and chicken paprikas. All without ever turning on the stove. . Tonight was one of those nights, taking advantage not only of the barbecue but also of the bounty of fresh, colourful summer vegetables and herbs available. This grilled vegetable ratatouille is filled with so much goodness and perfect with wedges of grilled flatbreads for soaking up the soupy goodness. . What are you making these days to keep your kitchens cool? . #yummy #delicious #instagood #instafood #instadinner #meatlessmonday #eatwhatyoulove #eattherainbow #toohotinthekitchen #veganfood #healthyfood #glutenfree #dinner #summer #bbq #homemade #foodoftheday #foodstagram #onthetable #timetoeat #damnthatsdelish #fbcigers #igerstoronto #emmaeats @canadianfoodies

Happy FRIYAY! . Friend Friday seems like the right day to refill our cookie reserves. And for playing around - I tried using self-rising flour in these and mixing them by hand, the of-fashioned way. Tasty and much more puffy than our usual chocolate chip cookies. 😊 . #sharingiscaring .

Gorgeous hair for grad by our friends at Fiorio on Bayview - thanks for such a great morning! Friend Friday came on Tuesday this week :) . . #greathairdontcare #gradday #bffgoals

One of the wonderful parts of writing a food blog and being on Instagram is that occasionally family and friends share their tried and true favourites with me. It is inspiring and heartwarming to understand how those recipes are appreciated and enjoyed in their households. And, I so value that I am trusted with a longtime “secret” recipe. . So thank you @gailburton for sharing these simple and absolutely tasty flourless morsels - while we had to substitute soybutter for peanut butter and roasted sunflower seeds for peanuts, we love them and know they will become part of our regular rotation! . Flourless Soybutter and Sunflower Chocolate Chip Cookies . #yummy #delicious #instagood #instafood #instacookies #friendfriday #eatwhatyoulove #dessert #bakersofinstagram #bakersgonnabake #homebaking #homemade #bakefromscratch #kingarthurflour #sharingiscaring #chocolate #peanutfree #sunflowerseeds #sweettooth #sugarrush #foodoftheday #foodstagram #onthetable #cookies #timetoeat #damnthatsdelish #fbcigers #igerstoronto #emmaeats @canadianfoodies

It’s Thursday night of the long weekend! Here’s hoping it’s been a simply sweet start to it for you! . Oreo and Easter M&M Magic Bars - although these are mostly for the kids, I have to admit I’ve been sneaking a few bites too. . #yummy #delicious #instagood #instafood #instacookies #eatwhatyoulove #dessert #bakersofinstagram #bakersgonnabake #holidaybaking #easter #homebaking #homemade #bakefromscratch #magicbars #hellodollybars #chocolate #sweettooth #sugarrush #foodoftheday #foodstagram #onthetable #cookies #weekendvibes #timetoeat #damnthatsdelish #fbcigers #igerstoronto #emmaeats @canadianfoodies

Happy FRIYAY! . Friend Friday is the right day to refill our cookie reserves. We bake half for sharing and freeze the remaining dough for future friend fun! #sharingiscaring .
