I was always under the impression that making donuts was a lot of work . After seriously looking into it I found it's much easier than I thought! The biggest thing I learned however, is that you can get super creative when it comes to flavours! So we put ourselves to the challenge and tried making a donut with our own Chai Spiced Apple spread and I've got to say, the results were delicious! Check out the recipe on our website: https://www.luvthegrub.com///6/18/chai-apple-filled-donuts

Roasted apples with all your favourite spices from a chai tea. A dollop in your oatmeal and spread on top of peanut butter toast; your mornings will never be the same! We also love spreading this jam on melted brie and camembert.

Any fruit or vegetable bumped or bruised, we take it and turn it into the yummy chutneys and spreads. They are still just as delicious and perfectly imperfect.

LONG WEEKEND VIBES With some yummy cheeses, fresh veggies, crackers, dried fruit and our delicious spicy mango chutney

The savoury earthy tones of the cheese are complimented with our chutney's own sweet and spice, with a little oomf to kick things into high gear. Add that with an especially fruity, tangy Sauv Blanc, and I bid you adieu to the world of flavour!

Introducing our Cheese and Wine Pairing series where we showcase what works best with each of our chutneys and spreads. Here we have our Chai Apple Spread paired up with Brie and some Pinot Grigio!

What's one thing you're thankful your mother did for you? For me, it was working hard so I could follow my dreams. She came here as a refugee from East Africa and worked hard to provide for our family. I wouldn't be where I am today without her strength and love. I wanted to show my appreciation for her with a gift basket. But not just any kind. One that gives back to the community. So we reached out to several local businesses and this is the result: our very own locally so...urced mother's day box! We specifically reached out to small businesses within the Vancouver area who give back: whether it's to the community or the environment, they make a conscious effort to create positive change. If you're looking for a thoughtful mother's day gift that gives back to the community, check it out here: https://www.luvthegrub.com/mothers-day-box/mothers-daybox The Mother's Day box will be $65 including delivery. All other information is on the website!

We got featured! Check out the digital version of the magazine!

I know the world is kinda scary right now so let's pulse check: how is everyone doing with the social distancing? Have you been keeping occupied? I sure have! Been experimenting with a whole bunch of recipes the past couple of days!... I had to do something with the classic grilled cheese... So I added some dijon apple chutney on top of some good american cheddar! And I have to say: nothing. can. compare... It was sooooo tasty! The tangy kick from the dijon complimented the apple's sweetness so well, and the cheese just brought it all together! Definitely something you should try if you can! There's my recipe for the day! Ok but really, on a more serious note. What we're facing today? Not every business will be okay. Not every LOCAL business will be okay. Let's show some solidarity for all the self-starters, entrepreneurs, and local businesses out there! Tag some local companies that need some love.
