I feel sort of sneaky. Here I am at Starbucks using their free Wi-Fi and electricity while simultaneously writing this article about the sneaky ingredients in their matcha green tea soy latte!

I used to love Starbucks and would feel really comforted finding one while traveling. I have fond memories of sipping match green tea lattes in Seoul and basking in the comfort of  a ‘home’ away from home.  I brought this tradition back with me when I returned to Toronto thinking I was being nutritionally savvy: I kept thinking antioxidants + green leaves = healthy. Boy was I wrong! READ MORE

Every year we make an annual trip to Florida to stay in Pompano Beach. It’s a tradition my husband and I have done for as long as I can remember. Before we even arrive, we have a huge discussion about which one of our favorite restaurants we’ll go to first. The most delicious authentic Greek restaurant in town usually wins as our first stop (this year we actually hit it up two nights in a row – that’s how we roll!)  READ MORE

It’s that time a year when the tomatoes and cucumbers are in abundance! When I’m not fermenting my ripe veggies I love making this traditional Greek salad. It’s so tasty and the juiciness of the tomatoes is absolutely refreshing. READ MORE

It’s a chilly Sunday afternoon, and both my husband and I are in our comfy clothes and thinking of some ideal comfort food to cook up. The trouble is, both of us are feeling quite lazy, and don’t want to spend hours making an elaborate dish. “I know!” he shouts! “Mac and cheese!”  READ MORE

I’ve been meaning to share this with you for a while now on how I became the plant-based nutritionista that I am today. I didn’t always live like this. I used to be a Big Mac loving, pizza freak. Looking back, I remember ordering pizza twice in one day. For realzies!  READ MORE

Do you find that you’re having a hard time living the lifestyle you once did? Is a night of partying leaving you with a ridiculous hangover that seems to last for days? Well, the good news is that horrible hangovers aren’t necessarily related to age. The bad news is that it’s a telltale sign of how slow your body is eliminating toxins. Think about all of the horrible things you’ve put your body through over the years… the beer funnels, the bottles of wine, tequila shots, and of course, the chip truck after the bar? I bet some of you can’t believe you’re still here with us today after going down memory lane! Before we go further, give yourself a gigantic hug and tell your body you’re sorry.  READ MORE
