I am a huge salad lover and rarely a day goes by that I don’t eat a big bowl of something that would be considered salad. I have a big passion for kale, which may be weird, but i just love the stuff, as you’ll probably see here…
I ate this entire bowl of jicama salad for lunch.It’s a big bowl. Then I made it again for dinner and my girls inhaled it too.It’s just so good. You might be thinking what is jicama? Or maybe you know what it is but you’re wondering how to eat jicama… […]
I adore butter lettuce and I adore this salad. It’s a funny story though… the whole inspiration for this salad was a bottle of raspberry red wine vinegar that I bought thinking it was regular old red wine vinegar, put in something that should definitely NOT taste like raspberry and […]
When life gives you leftover cornbread… well it wasn’t “life” exactly, it was my mother-in-law who made us some amazing cornbread and because it was too good to waste I did what any sensible person would do… I fried it in butter and threw it in a Southwest Salad! This […]
I’m starting to wonder if my love of salads is more a love of salad dressings… I mean, a Strawberry Mango Avocado Salad is a delicious thing in and of itself, but this dressing… I am all about the dressing… You know what? I’m eating my veggies. All is good. […]
I really wanted to just eat this dressing with a spoon. Like soup. Thought that might be frowned upon though, so I didn’t. But it’s so good! So is this salad. You see, arugula salad is often on the menu around here. So much so that my family banned me […]
In my never ending mission to convert the kale haters of the world (“Hi” Father-in-Law!) I bring you the best kale salad I’ve ever made (since the last best kale salad I’ve ever made). But this one is seriously delicious. The combo of strawberries, balsamic & pepper is often seen […]
Add “Thai Glass Noodle Salad” to the list of things you want to try next. Believe me. I reeeeeeeeally hope you’ve tried my Smoky Brown Sugar & Grainy Mustard Salmon salmon. Why? Because if you did, you just might have leftover salmon in your fridge right now which you means […]
Sick of kale salads yet? I’m not. Never will be. I love it so much I could eat it every day. In any form. Kale rocks! But, for the haters… This is not your average kale salad. Bright sweet pineapple, loads of texture from the cashews & coconut and spicy […]
This salad was born out of my deep hatred of washing lettuce and also my strong dislike of chopping up Kale. Listen, just because I love to cook doesn’t mean I love everything about it. Dishes, for example. Who needs that??!! I also want things just how I want them. […]
Welcome to my site! I'm a self-taught, home cook who pretty much lives in the kitchen. Or with my nose in a cookbook. Cooking is my passion, my obsession, my very favourite thing. I make a lot of really good comfort food with creative twists and bolder flavours. My food is slightly elevated but isn't too fussy. I'm not here to teach you how to cook, I'm here to inspire you, to show you something new and really, really good. And to make you hungry. In my home, in The Pypers Kitchen, this is what we eat.
