A simple dessert to pull together when you’re craving a more complicated Baklava.

I created this granola recipe as a gift for when guests arrive in my home. I also make as a hostess gift, packing it in clear pantry jars with a ribbon and note. Everyone loves it! It truly is the best I’ve ever tried.

Fork-tender acorn squash given the slightest zing with cayenne pepper, and decked with festive pomegranate.

This special vegetable dish could take centre stage, inspired by my love of Top Chef Canada Eden Grinshpan’s Recipe the combination of slightly charred vegetables (created by roasting directly on a baking dish), toasted nuts, honey and dates is incredible.

This dish is all about texture, with the smooth goat cheese playing off its Panko crust, the tender arugula paired with dressed-up olives. So beautiful and so good.
