If you like food, we'll get along *^_^*
Most pre-made spice mix that you will find at the grocery store always have too much salt of other preservatives added so I preferred to make my own mix. Inspired by many store bought blends, I hope you’ll enjoy this recipe. Use it just as you would any store bought mix and add the salt in your recipe.

I’ve been teasing my twitter and facebook followers for a while now about a new chicken wings recipe… The worst thing is, I have shot these photos about month ago and wrote this recipe 2 months ago but you know how I roll… I get so busy and the culinary site suffer. It’s not because I don’t want to come here (pretty much the opposite) but I don’t always have the time and since my business took off again (thanks god) I’ve been swamped (in a good way) and every day is busier than the one before.
There is also the fact that I wanted to post other recipes before this one but I haven’t been able to get around to take photos of the more healthiest meals I have made so today I said “fuck it” I’m posting my wing recipe and I’ll just have to deal with it! lol The reason why I wanted to post healthier recipes is because I’m currently on “model bootcamp diet” and I don’t allow myself the juicy and delicious wings like these ones or the spicy maple chicken wings I made earlier this year.
I’m planning a lot of shootings in the upcoming weeks and months so I have to watch what I eat a bit more. Although I call it a “model bootcamp diet”, it’s not really a diet but more a new way of life/eating. I don’t feel like I’m stopping myself from eating what I like (beside the obvious junk food) so that’s why I don’t feel like I’m on a diet. Plus I wanted to show you that it’s not because you watch what you eat, that you will always feel like you’re starving yourself, then get frustrated because you cant eat what you would normally eat. I’ll get to that, I have a lot of delicious and flavorful recipes that are on the healthy side and the next time I’ll be posting something here it will be in this category. (hopefully lol)
Till then, enjoy these delicious honey and mustard wings with the flavorful dipping sauce… Ohhh just looking at the photos I’m already drooling.. you?

I always have nuts laying around in my house. Either roasted with spices or just raw, I love them all. It’s a great and healthy way for me to get a boost of energy and make sure I eat all your good fat and control my blood sugar to get me through the day at the computer or on the go at a photo shoot. I’ve been wanting to show you all the great recipes you can do with my homemade cajun spice blend but didn’t had much time as you can probably see by the number of updates on the site. So this morning I decided that enough was enough and I had to shoot at least one recipe! Good news, I ended shooting 3 new recipes including this one so make sure you don’t miss the next updates because they are going to be delicious 😛
Ok enough chatting and more recipe right? I hope you’ll enjoy this simple snack that can be eaten on the go or maybe while you’re watching the football game on Sunday? 😉

I meant to post this yesterday but life had decided otherwise…
Here’s the first recipe of many others where I’m using the amazing grains of paradise that we learned about in my previous post. Like I told you in that post, one of my favorite uses for these amazing peppery seeds is on roasted veggies and what’s better than roast fennel bulbs seriously. This recipe is simple and delicious plus you can serve this side dish with pretty much anything. I personally love it on the side of a big juicy steak 😉
Enjoy!

Creating my own spice blends have been such an adventure up to date and I’m proud to say that I found some pretty fun mixes that I think you guys might enjoy. Let me know what you think about this festive Cajun spice blend! Why am I calling it festive? well only because I added a touch of cinnamon in it.. Don’t be scared, it’s true that it’s something that we don’t usually find in cajun blends but just try it out as a dry rub on fish, seafood, chicken or even meat! Oh and it’s also great for many type of sauces! Enjoy!

I made this the other day and it was a real success! I wanted to make something with the yellow curry powder that I have sitting in my pantry because it’s incredibly tasty and I’m always wondering what to do with it. I took my inspiration from a restaurant I went with a friend the other day and on the table beside us they served a fish curry (that’s what I thought it was) that smelled amazing. From there I had fun and experimenting to end up with an amazing surprise! Hope you’ll like 🙂

Planning a dinner party? Here’s a fun and EASY appetizer your guests who like spicy food will jump on!
** IMPORTANT ** Cutting Jalapenos peppers will BURN YOUR FINGERS!! The best trick I have found is rubbing alcohol or Hand Sanitizer in a pretty big quantity, then wash your hands with soap… don’t do like me and wait for two full day wondering why is your hands burning that much… it’s awful! lol
