What Jenn’s Lovin’

Homemade Pizza

It’s dark early, there’s a chill in the air and nothing warms up my home faster than homemade pizza night. This is my go-to, versatile, simple, forgiving pizza dough recipe that is sure to turn you into a dough master! I’ve made it early in the day and set to rise in the fridge, I’ve doubled it up, I’ve made it into calzones, breadsticks, mini pizzas, I’ve only used all-purpose flour for an even lighter dough and I’ve added seasonings to the dough for a fun twist. Master the basics in this video and you’ll be adding this simple meal night into your weekly plan.

What are you favourite pizza toppings? Are you on team pineapple?

Word of the Year

Ring in the New Year not with resolutions but instead with a Word of the Year.

For the past 3 years, I have set a word of the year.  For me, it’s an intention, mantra or a cue.  They are like a road map and a reminder for how to live out each day.

2018 was about MORE, 2019 was TUNE IN and as I take the month to reflect in January, I will set my 2020 Word of the Year and share back in February with you all.

Eat Well…Jenn & Ellen

Apples from B.C., the list is endless and I just cannot pick a favorite!

  265. The very Canadian McIntosh apple with the tart & sweet taste and juicy crunch, perfect alone or prepared in many delicious recipes. Those apple memories run deep…Fresh picked is my favorite! My grade school summers spent under or in my Dads Mac apple tree he planted for us. As an 8 yr old sitting near the top of the tree,the buzzing of insects and the brightness of the day still fresh in memory. I plucking ripe enough apples and tossing them down to my best friend, laughing as 9 year old do. So immersed in our play I said Beverlyeverlyapple as if all one word and we laughed!
