Peach Turnovers (vegan/dairy-free)

by Tazim Damji

peach turnovers

Peaches. They feel so warm and cozy to me. Some people are really into watermelons, or cherries, or blueberries during the summer months - for me, it's all about peaches. I especially like getting peaches from farmers markets—I feel like they taste so much better and have a much nicer texture. Though, really - I would buy all my produce direct from farmers if I could.

Blueberry Scones

The truth about stories is, that's all we are. - Thomas King There are always stories behind the foods we eat, the ways that recipes are developed, and the ways in which the ingredients in our kitchens came to be there. We often feel a connection to the end result—the cooked meal, the baked dessert, the poured drink. Therefore, it may not always be that we pause and contemplate the process.

This recipe involves a bit of stove-time, which made my apartment even more hot—but in the end I had a sweet and cool treat to make up for it! Strawberries are my favourite ...

Smuckers Pairings

Every season I put together a list of things I want to try, new adventures I want to go on, and books I want to read. One thing I’m always down on myself about is not making enough different types of food. I’m changing things up, though! I’ve been excitedly jotting down ideas for how to use things I have a lot of in my kitchen. Right now, I have a lot of different flavours of Smucker’s jam.

Summer Strawberry Recipes Roundup

by Tazim Damji

summer strawberry recipes

One of the things I most look forward to, as soon as it starts getting nicer outside, is strawberries. This year, I purchased a Kitchenaid blender, so I've been making smoothies most mornings — usually with strawberries. With the inexpensive price of strawberries so far this season, I've ended up purchasing and freezing several pounds of the delicious fruit already. I don't know about you, but when I see (organic, and preferably local) strawberries, I can't help but buy some. . .even if my ...
