With labour day a thing of the past and cooler weather on the horizon we thought we would turn our sights on some comfort food. Hearty soups, warm morning drinks and classic Italian all topped off with a delicious and easy peach crisp. Grab your fresh ingredients and a nice sweater and jeans and get ready for a day of plant based goodness. If you have any comments or suggestions please let us know. Have a great week!

The shopping list is broken down by meal for ease of use. We try to include recipes that use the same ingredients more than once so that you don’t end up with food waste. Because of this you’ll see that if an ingredient in the breakfast recipe is also in the dinner recipe it is only listed once. Let us know if you like this way of laying out the shopping list or if you have a better suggestion. If you’ve been following along for a few weeks you’ll notice that many of the ingredients are things that were used in weeks past.
