		<title>Cherry Tomato, Basil and Brie Panzanella Salad</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve gone a little tomato crazy this year. I&#8217;m finding myself literally surrounded by tomatoes of all varieties and I only have myself to blame for it. As I may have mentioned before we receive more than we can eat in tomatoes each week from my mother-in-law and with many failed attempts at refusing her [...]]]></description>

		<title>5 Vancouver Restaurant Favorites</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I rarely write about Vancouver restaurants here on The Hunger Struck, so I thought it was time to make a quick list of my current favorites. We do eat out at least once a week and over the past few months have been going back to these places frequently. They are all in the moderate [...]]]></description>

		<title>Brown Butter Ice Cream</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Its almost like I have an unconscious wish to get really really fat. I&#8217;ll spend hours at the gym the weekend baking and eating and still find myself a bit confused when my jeans fit tight on Monday morning. The best part is that by some miracle I am able to ignore this and use [...]]]></description>

		<title>Fig and Blueberry Tarts with Almond Frangipane</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I love to bake and have always longed to be one of those bakers who can produce perfect aesthetically magnificent creations. This is a bit strange because in other ways I&#8217;m not exactly what you would call a perfectionist. This desire for baking perfection may stem from the fact that baking is something I was [...]]]></description>

		<title>Fig, Serrano and Bocconcini Bruschetta</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have been the laziest cook lately. For the last few weeks as this blog will attest I have had minimal time in the kitchen. Actually it hasn&#8217;t been intentional at all, I&#8217;ve just been so busy lately. We are desperately trying to find a house right now as we&#8217;ve out grown our one room [...]]]></description>

		<title>Black Current Jam</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I over bought at the farmers market a few weeks back. Does that ever happen to you? I find it so hard to control my purchases at this time of the year, it seems I have to constantly remind myself that with work and everything else I just don&#8217;t have time to plan what I&#8217;m [...]]]></description>

		<title>Farmers Market Greens with Anchovies and Sesame Spelt Croutons</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Saturday lunch during the spring and summer months is my favorite meal of the week. It rivals even the prized boozy Sunday night dinners at my parents place. Though arguably lighter and without the wine parings these lunches are always pretty fantastic and inspired by the farmers market. They are also extremely simple, usually no [...]]]></description>

		<title>Quinoa, Garbanzo, and Spinach Salad with Smoked Paprika Dressing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There are many things I love about quinoa but the best thing by far is that it fills you up for a long long time. I&#8217;m not sure exactly why that is, someone mentioned to me recently that they thought quinoa contained more protein than other grains, I&#8217;m going to run with that theory as [...]]]></description>

		<title>Roasted Baby Artichokes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s a recipe that will make you feel a little fancy on a Tuesday night. I almost can&#8217;t believe I&#8217;m writing a post about artichokes as they were one of my most feared food items as a child. I&#8217;m not quite sure why anymore, I think it had something to do with a period in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Chicken Paillard</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I think Chicken Paillard might be the only chicken recipe where I can support using boneless skinless chicken breast. It&#8217;s inadequacies are well documented, but to put it in a nutshell, boneless skinless chicken breast has the power to turn even the most ardent meat lover into a vegetarian. You know that staunch type that [...]]]></description>
