CREAMY PEPPER SAUCE WITH MUSHROOMS goes well with with a meaty dish The key to getting the most “pepperiness” from your peppercorn sauce is to toast the pepper gently with the mushrooms and garlic before adding the cream. Fresh thyme, bay and a squeeze of lemon add all the right flavours and you’re done.

’Alessio family is pretty serious about their sauce. Jen grew up watching her grandmother cook pasta sauce on the stove all day. Although a 4 hour marinara is delicious, sometimes a quick, fresh sauce is a bit more practical. Here’s our version of a garden fresh pasta sauce.

We never imagined making tomatillo salsa would be this easy! First, you just need to find the tomatillos in the grocery store. At Whole Foods, they are in the refrigerated produce section.

Perfect with pasta, in a lasagne, as a dip, and with fresh potato wedges. It truly is your everything sauce and will quickly become a staple with your family.

Paprika Hummus

Vegan cashew ricotta

This Spicy Garlicky Avocado Hummus is sooo yummy and healthy. It’s loaded with protein, fiber, and healthy fats which make it the all around snack. On top of that, paired with some healthy low carb options like carrots and cucumbers, it really is the ultimate power snack.

If the van is a rocking, I’m probably making butter.

Carrot Greens Pesto

This is pretty much the hot sauce that you’ll see on every table. It’s dead simple, fresh and delicious. It is made with huacatay leaves, a Bolivian herb with quite a unique flavour. Traditionally this sauce is made with a special hand blender, that gives the sauce a chunky blended texture. However, I was shown it can also be made with a grater.

The best simple and authentic pesto sauce. Use as a spread in a sandwich, a dressing for a salad or as a rich sauce for your pasta.

The sauce is the boss! My favorite way to make sauces and dressings is to shake it in a mason jar to combine the ingredients thoroughly and easily store the leftovers.
