Winnipeg Under $10: Quesadilla, Por Favor

Adventures and experiences of a vegetarian foodie under a budget. A food review of the Culinary Exchange in The Exchange District in Winnipeg.

Bae-ritto Night

One burrito is kinda sad and alone. Two burritos make a happy bae-ritto. And, this vegetarian burrito recipe is so good that you're gonna wanna have two.

You Win Some, You Dim Sum

On Saturday, two of my friends and I went to Kum Koon Garden for a dim sum brunch. However, I didn't research enough beforehand and the place did not have too many vegetarian Dim Sums. However, I was lucky enough to find enough dishes to stuff myself until I was full.

One, Two, Chai, Chai, Chai

There are few things less comforting than a steaming, hot, cuppa Chai on a cold, winter morning. Since the dawn of time, it has been the Indian parents answer to all life troubles. Feeling sick? Need a caffeine fix? Hangry? Have some Chai.

I love Mac n' Cheese. And, I love burgers. So, when you put two comfort foods into one basket, you know it's going to be radishing.

Time to H-Avocado

Oh, Avocado. I feel you. It must be hard to be the scapegoat for the problems of one generation and the angst of another. But, you're still there. Still going strong. On the chalkboard menus of that hipster cafe and the kitchen of a student on a budget. 

Salad and Sangria Saturdays

Weekends mean long, lazy brunches. And, you don't want to spend hours making a brunch, you want to spend hours eating it. This salad is quick, filling, and easy to make. I tried to hold on to a little bit of summer with this Fusilli and Veggie salad and White Wine Sangria yesterday and it was delicious.
