It’s that time of year again! If you grow your own cucumbers, you might be trying to figure out what to do with them all. I can’t keep up with mine this year and I only have one plant!

Add this Thai style cucumber salad to your cucumber recipe collection. It’s refreshing, comes together fast, and keeps for a few days in the fridge. The perfect side to your fave grilled proteins, stir fries, and more.

Comment CUCUMBER and I’ll shoot you the recipe 🥳

It’s also on pg. 43 of my new COOKBOOK.

Also, let me know what you’re doing with all the cucumbers. I’d love to hear from you! I’ve been away from IG for a while and am missing my peeps 🥰

On Wednesday morning I had the honour of being interviewed on CBC Radio’s Ontario Morning. It was a total “pinch me” moment as I’ve been a listener for years! I was beyond nervous (sh****ng my pants actually 🤫), but Ramraajh is such a wonderful interviewer and put me completely at ease. Thank you CBC/Radio-Canada and Ramraajh Sharvendiran for having me on to talk about my first cookbook!

If you missed it and would like a listen, comment “CBC” and I’ll send you the link! 📻

Well, this was a first. 🥹
I stopped into in this weekend to check on my cookbook inventory and ended up having one of those moments that catches you completely off guard.

A few weeks ago, I dropped off some copies of my cookbook, but this was the first time I’d actually seen it on the shelf. Not on my desk, not in my office, not stacked in boxes at home, but sitting in a real bookstore alongside so many incredible cookbooks.

I stood there staring at it for a minute thinking, How did this happen?

When I started sharing recipes years ago, I never imagined I’d one day walk into a bookstore and see my own cookbook on the shelf. Seeing it there, alongside books like Joy of Cooking, made the whole thing kind of surreal.

I’m feeling pretty proud, incredibly grateful, and taking a moment to soak it all in. ❤️

Thank you to everyone who has supported My Pocket Kitchen along the way. ❤️
And thank you to Novel Idea Bookstore for giving my cookbook a spot on the shelf.

I was skeptical about the whole “cook pasta right in the sauce” trend but wow, was I wrong. Not only is this creamy chicken and asparagus orzo delicious, it also makes for such an easy one pan meal.

Fresh asparagus is comin’ in hot and this recipe lets it shine. Plus, it’s perfect for Mother’s Day if you want to impress Mom without spending hours in kitchen.

This one needs to get into your regular rotation STAT.

Comment ORZO and I’ll send you recipe.
