CHIA PUDDING
I went to the store the other day and they were selling chia pudding cups for $3.99. It was a 1 cup serving with a few ingredients in it. I thought to myself, why would someone buy this when chia pudding is so easy to …

BANANA NUTELLA WONTONS WITH ICE CREAM & RASPBERRIES
This dessert is everything you want in a dessert – sweet, tart, cold, hot, creamy, crunchy… absolutely perfect. I made it for my friend for her birthday instead of a birthday cake. She couldn’t get enough.
GREEN SMOOTHIE
Smoothies are my favourite everyday dessert. I use kefir for its probiotic properties. It’s a fermented milk drink that has lots of good bacteria. Coconut oil has so many health benefits and when I first heard of adding it to a smoothie, I was skeptical, …
FROZEN BERRIES WITH ICE WINE CHOCOLATE
The first time I had frozen berries with white hot chocolate was in NYC with my Swedish friends. It was New Years Eve and we were at this Swedish restaurant. When they told me it’s berries and white chocolate I wasn’t overly impressed. But then …

RASPBERRY ORANGE PARFAIT
When I want something sweet for breakfast during the week, I choose yogurt and berries. It can be made in advance and is easy to assemble. I sprinkle my favourite granola over it for a nutty yummy crunch. This can even be taken to work …
S’MORES ICE CREAM BAR
This is one of those OMG! desserts. You can’t believe how good it is. A graham cracker crust, with chocolate fudge which is basically the fudgey part of the dairy queen cakes (double score on figuring that out), toasted marshmallow ice cream, and then brûlléed …
