Migas with Chili Oil

Migas is a traditional Mexican breakfast dish that includes scrambled eggs with crunchy tortilla chips. Here, we upgrade migas with a platter of refried beans and avocado, all of which are enlivened with a punchy chili oil—a fast, satisfying meal for any time of day.

Charred Cabbage Lentil Salad with Smoky Hemp Crumble

This main-course salad, made by lightly charring cabbage strands under the broiler, is seasoned with a lemony dressing and smoke-infused hempseeds. The slight bitterness from charring amplifies all the savoury and sweet flavours of the dish. The hemp crumble, a healthier stand-in for bacon bits, tastes very similar to bacon bits and it may just become your new favourite salad and soup topper.

Roasted Salmon with Seared Citrus Salsa

This warm, buttery salmon is adorned with a bright citrusy salsa. Charring citrus in a red-hot pan brings benefits: the sweetness is enhanced while mellowing the tangy notes, and a surprising smoky flavour is imparted on the fruit. This makes charred citrus a next-level way to serve salsa. For an extra layer of smoky essence, try seasoning your salmon with smoked salt.

Chipotle Tofu Tacos with Herbed Mushrooms

It’s taco night, starring only plants. The combination of saucy chipotle pepper and powdered smoked paprika infuses the meaty tofu crumbles with an unmistakable smoky essence. The sautéed mushrooms are an umami-packed alternative to standard salsa and there will be extra tofu filling for anyone with a bigger appetite!

Blistered Vegetable Quinoa Sausage Soup

This hearty and comforting soup is layered with the robust flavours of roasted vegetables, chewy sausage, grassy quinoa, earthy beans, and smoked cheese. The result is a bold, protein-packed soup that’s sure to help you feel extra cozy on a winter night. For a Mexican twist, swap the chicken or turkey sausage for smoky, spicy chorizo. The soup makes excellent leftovers, but you’ll need to add additional liquid as the quinoa will soak up the water as it sits.

Mayan Fudge Cakes with Raspberry Coulis

A Valentine’s Day-worthy dessert made with love, these cakes are sweetened naturally with dried plums for a rich, fudgy consistency. The cayenne adds a slight fiery kick, making the dessert feel extra cozy. The raspberry coulis, sauce made from puréed fruits, adds a burst of fresh flavour and vibrant colour. The cakes can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, but they are best served at room temperature or warmed through.

Silky Chocolate Maca Pudding with Cherry Compote

Silken tofu certainly lives up to its name in this silky-soft pudding flavoured with seductively rich chocolate. This sexy, protein-packed treat gets an extra boost of love with potassium-rich maca root, which is thought to have mood- and libido-boosting powers. The maca root lends a slight butterscotch flavour to the pudding, which also gets a shot of cinnamon and cayenne. When topped with a cherry compote, the result is a luscious and creamy delight.

Beef Carpaccio with Pomegranate and Arugula

Lean into your adventurous side and prepare carpaccio at home with this easy-to-make and satisfying dish that’s perfect for two. Pounded thin and drizzled in a bright dressing of pomegranate molasses, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar, the final product is topped with fresh arugula and pomegranate seeds for a tart and tangy flavour burst.
