Pesto BABY! The plants this year have blessed us

Pesto BABY!

The plants this year have blessed us with the most beautiful basil 🌿
She needed constant pruning to keep her going for the summer, and the best way to use basil leaves is in a pesto!

This pesto recipe is stupidly simple and freezer friendly! So when we are sadly saying goodbye to summer, at least we will have a piece of summer in our freezer 😅

Recipe is on the blog! See link in bio!

Nectarine Bruschetta anyone? 🍑 Nectarines wit

Nectarine Bruschetta anyone? 🍑

Nectarines with Brie, Lemon Thyme and Honey is a winning combo!

Especially this time of year when the Niagara Peaches and Nectarines are in season.

Local Nectarine with Local Honey from @rosewoodwine is the dream team.

Of course too we have Lemon Thyme from the garden, which if you haven’t tried it, you should!

A little flaked salt on top and you got the appetizer of the season!

Have you tried this? It’s definitely one of those classic flavour combinations you find this time of year!

Give it a try and let me know what you think! Link in the bio for full recipe.

Are you team peach or nectarine?

If you know, you know…

We can never go wrong with the simple classics!

Iced Latte made with my favourite espresso of ALL TIME - @416_coffee beans are perfection!

We’ve been through BAGS of these wonderful beans. No lie, 2 lbs of @416_coffee beans gets crushed per month 🙃

It’s just pure love for that morning latte sip!

If you are local to the Grimsby or St. Catharines area check out their shop and get some locally roasted beans for your morning brew.

I will being doing a blog post talking about my coffee journey. If we think about it, our lives and coffee are so intertwined together. Coffee itself is a beautiful tool to gather altogether.

Ingredients:

- Double Shot Espresso (using @416_coffee LAVATO DECAF)
- 240ml Milk (I always cold froth, cuz I’m insane)
- Ice
- Optional Sweetener (Usually do maple syrup in my lattes)

Also, big Thank You to @lindahermansphotography gif tutorial! It comes in handy anytime I need to gif something!

This weekend calls for breakfast in the garden 🪴

The weather this weekend is going to be beautiful, so why not take breakfast outside!

Every weekend I take my coffee, computer and breakfast out to the garden! Feels so much nicer than eating inside - especially on a sunny day. Of course Lilly (my cat) joins me too and chills underneath the lounge chair.

These Buttermilk Pancakes are the perfect outdoor garden breakfast! Treat yourselves this weekend!

The early summer classic…🍓 Strawberry Rhubar

The early summer classic…🍓

Strawberry Rhubarb Pie is Summer’s official calling card! Nothing beats pie made from scratch, from the shell to the filling - you will never buy a store bought pie again!

Knowing exactly what goes into making this pie is especially important to me, since unfortunately a lot of store bought or bakery crusts are made with Lard - which I can’t have or modified ingredients, which I prefer to stay away from.

Trust me the crust is TOO easy to make and made with butter!

Don’t get me started on the filling?! Garden fresh Rhubarb with local Strawberries is just perfection!
Topped with Delicious Vanilla Bean Ice Cream - so GOOD!

Coming to the blog this week!

To all the Mums, Mums to be, Caregivers and Fur Mums too! One day is not enough for you!

My heart goes out to all those who have lost their Mums, or those who long to be Mums - I think about you today.

Save this! 🍊 Orange Blossom Stuffed Dates… Y

Save this! 🍊 Orange Blossom Stuffed Dates…

Yes, Orange Blossom Dates stuffed with Walnuts and Tahini, dipped in Dark Chocolate - topped with Flakey Salt.

Let me tell you, these are just the PERFECT post dinner treat! Super easy to make too!

Walnut stuffed Dates is a tradition we have in Morocco. Typically, the dates are wiped with Orange Blossom Water and just stuff with Walnuts.

I decided to take it up a notch! Get the recipe down below!

Ingredients:

- 16 Medjool
- Orange Blossom Water
- 1/2 Cup Walnut Halves
- 1/2 Cup Melted Dark Chocolate, more if needed
- Tahini
- Flaked Sea Salt

Instructions:

1. Place all your unpitted dates in a small bowl and pour over the orange blossom water until they are just covered. Leave for 2 minutes. Alternatively, you can just wipe each date down with a paper towel soak with the blossom water
2. Remove the dates from the bowl and pat dry
3. Make a cut down the centre to remove the pits
4. Stuff each date with one or two walnut halves and gently squeeze them closed
5. Melt your dark chocolate using the double bowl method
6. Dip each date in chocolate and place on a plate lined with parchment paper and top with the salt
7. Place the dates in the freezer and allow the chocolate to set. About 15 minutes
8. Remove from the freezer and drizzle tahini into the opening of each date over the walnuts
9. Store in freezer or fridge and enjoy anytime you need a little treat!
