How to make healthy choices every day
I have had the pleasure of writing two cookbooks, My New Roots, and Naturally Nourished. It has been an immensely gratifying experience taking the spirit of my blog into the third dimension! My New Roots is my first book baby. It opens with the techniques […]
Golden Circle Retreats was born out of my dream to create a place for people to go and reconnect with nature, food, the mind-body-spirit, each other, and above all, themselves. I consciously curated the Wild Heart High Spirit program to combine nourishing plant-based meals, inspiring […]
Aside from writing recipes for the My New Roots blog, I also create online cooking videos, consult restaurants and food companies on recipe development and food innovation, lead wellness retreats, classes, and host workshops internationally. For more information or questions about how we can work […]

This post is a long time coming! And I’m so excited to finally be sharing my bedroom with you all. We’ve now been in our home for a year and a bit, and although it’s (still!) not complete, we’re enjoying working on the finishing details […]

I miss Bali. Or maybe I just miss the warmth, the sun, the vibrancy, the life bursting forth from every nook and cranny. I miss living outside, I miss my eyes being assaulted by colours, and layers upon layers of wild sounds, but hey, it’s […]
When we committed to going to the ocean, I immediately felt the thrilling sensation that washes over me when I stand at the intersection of land meeting water. I smelled brine and dampness. I saw certain patterns and colours; light sand against dark water, […]
When I saw the number, I couldn’t believe it: 29 hours. It was undoubtedly going to be one of the longest travel days of my life. I’ve been to Bali twice before, but always from Copenhagen, which is about half the distance from Toronto. […]
Everyone has strong food memories around holidays or special occasions in their life. I can completely recall the distinct taste of boxed cake from my childhood birthdays. Summer vacations were steeped in melting grape juice popsicles made by my grandmother. And one of my […]
Welcome to My New Roots. Since October 2007, this blog has been the place for me to share the edible inspirations from my playtime in the kitchen, and my deep love for whole foods. The recipes and ideas you’ll find here revolve around my plant-based way of eating, and I hope that through the simple and delicious dishes I create, you too will discover a whole new world of flavour and nourishment.
Xo, Sarah B
