The Best Kale Fruit Smoothie

Inspiration: Crux Comptoir Buddha smoothie

I often have this smoothie for lunch when I am working. It gets its beautiful green colour from the kale but don't be fooled - it is sweet, decadent and delicious. Top with some hemp hearts and puffed quinoa for a little extra texture and crunch. I hope you enjoy!

Kale Fruit Smoothie: 1 large serving

1 frozen ripe banana, cut in 4 pieces
4 pieces for frozen pineapple
1 large kale leaf, washed and centre stem removed
3 - 4 pitted dates
1 cup of non-dairy milk of your choice
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
1Tablespoon of hemp hearts (+ more for garnish)
puffed quinoa (as garnish)
protein powder (optional)

Place all the ingredients, except the puffed quinoa, in your blender and mix until very smooth. Garnish with additional hemp hearts and puffed quinoa. Enjoy!

Tourtière du Québec (French Canadian Meat Pie)

One of my fondest food memories is of my mother preparing 10 tourtières at one time in the evening after dinner as she got ready for the upcoming festivities. For French Canadians, this is the time of year when we prepare the Tourtière that will be eaten during the Holidays.

Salmon Tartar - Asian Style

Served here with baked Lays potato chips or toasted baguette In our family we use the expression ''mish mash'' to describe a dinner when we will just go through the fridge and freezer and put a bunch of easy (but good) things together to create a meal. Actually, this is one of our favorite ways to eat because everyone prepares their favorite item and it all comes together buffet (or tapas) style.
