These are the recipes that I create in my kitchen. I live in a small down town Toronto apartment. I love to cook, and I hope these recipes inspire you to love food, love life and love your friends and family. Food builds community, inspires life and keeps you healthy. Food is meant to be fresh, colourful and vibrant, not dull and out of a box. My recipes are meant to encourage you to experiment, they are guidelines not rules so add more, or less, but please enjoy.
