A Family + Lifestyle Blog
For those of you who’ve followed our blog and channels for a while, you know “zah” is kind of a big deal around here and “Pizza Night” is a regular one in our dinner rotation. I’ve also shared how I’m committing to a healthier lifestyle this year in partnership with Weight Watchers Canada, so spending the day with the WW Canada’s Chef Tyler and cooking
EAT. PIZZA. LOVE. Since becoming parents, Valentine’s Day at home has been our norm, so this year won’t feel much different in lockdown times. We’ve been making so many lovey dovey themed recipes for the blog this month, we’ll probably take a bit of a break and do a combo meal of part homemade, part take out to show some local love. Kinda like this
Follow my blog with Bloglovin It’s DadChef’s Birthday week [you can’t see him blushing from the virtual gush ;)], so today’s recipe is in honour of our pizza-loving family man, and we’re celebrating even harder because this Rustic Flatbread Fig & Prosciutto version takes just 10 minutes to make! We haven’t been dining out as much as usual, and would normally take a night
Whether it’s because our frigid Winter temps are giving you FOGO (fear of going out) or staying in cozies & bypassing the need to arrange a sitter is more favourable, we would agree, date nights in are a total parenting win!

Our Ponzo-dillas™ Sheet Pan Recipe was born from Quesadilla night gone bust when the chicken and Mexicana ingredients I thought we had on hand, well, weren’t. All good – pizza toppings were stocked and this one worked out well. A combination of baked panzerotti (“ponzos”) with the brilliant sheet pan method of making Quesadillas is a mash up we’ll be adding to our meal rotation
Our family’s love for Québec is deep – the breathtaking landscapes, the gastronomy, the ‘joie de vivre’ culture, and the many affordable types of accommodations for our big brood have made it a top choice for us to vacation over recent years. On our way to some of the province’s popular getaway hubs – Mont Tremblant, Québec City and even passing through Ottawa, Ontario before
I thought I would make it through Easter preparations without using “eggs” as a lead-in to an expressive word, but guys, that’s just not a commitment I can live up to this year 😉 I remember feeling so depleted this time last year fresh to lockdown life, and well, maybe we’re well-adjusted to living life under chronic uncertainty, and we’re feeling a little more hoppy
One of the best parts of holiday eating is loving on the leftovers. We hope you had a beautiful Easter/Passover weekend & found some joy amidst the heaviness of the times. We missed loved ones dearly, but found some comfort in dusting off sacred family recipes from the vault – Dad Chef made Perogi from scratch using a vintage recipe from his Ukrainian maternal side,
Our family’s diet doesn’t have a name – we love a variety of foods and don’t have restrictions or allergies to work around. Just like many families we speak to, though, getting more veggies in our meals (and kids’ bellies) is a focus for us, and we love the variety using nutrient-dense cauliflower brings. Blend it for soups, mince it for pizza crust, chop it
