Hello Darlings!

I’m Stephanie; mother, wife, former surfer, food stylist, product merchandiser and founder of Meet the Smallsens.

Meet the Smallsens is a place for millennial parents looking for new favorite recipes, parenting life hacks, and seasonal inspiration. It’s for the food curators, who love to entertain company over meals. I’m here to share my west coast life and recipe ideas you will probably recognize, but with a twist of my own to make them different and special in hopes to make your loved ones smile.

Hope you follow along with my Pacific Northwest, Flexitarian Life.

My two loves. Today's Father's Day celebration definitely comes with extra hugs. ❤️☀️
Lifestyle Choices. 🌿💜 . Ethical Soda and Vegan Donuts, because everyone deserves to indulge while making good-for-you choices. On a side note, my peonies have developed a romance with ants. While I hate to break up their garden love affair, I'm kind of tired of shaking off ants. Please send tips. Or wine 😉 . You can find these vegan goodies at @pommenatural ✌🏽️
My homage to @anthonybourdain told in the art of food. . Some of the best stories from my grandparents came surrounded by rye bread, patê, pickles, my grandmas pickled cabbage, beets and more. While we haven't gathered in years, I still remember all the stories surrounded by their long table which may or may not have involved singing #tingelingelater with pots on our head. . Here is my story influenced by childhood memories, in the form of a plant-based Danish smorgasbord, inspired by my grandparents. . Everything is vegan and gluten free. 🌿tap to see details on specific items
Who else is obsessed with @miraclenoodle ❤️🌿 . Low calorie, almost zero carbs, keto friendly, paleo and vegan, these noodles have become part of my food life. . Added a few additional ingredients and some herbs and radish from the garden and I have the most delicious and tasty pad thai. . This easy meal will be on repeat this week. ✌🏽️
All Hail The Mighty Caesar. . If you have these delicious cocktails on your mind, check out the link in bio for three easy and delicious recipes. . If you're local to the GVRD you can grab everything you need from @meinhardtfinefoods and @wholefoodsbc and @drinkaddition horseradish cocktail spice from @jaksliquor @pacificliquorbc #icameisawicocktailed
This is 34, and I'm definitely embracing every.little.bit. Highlight of today is having Nicholas and Sophie sing happy birthday off key, with such love and enthusiasm ❤️while we have dessert (before dinner) on our patio. #parentwin . For those local mommas in the gvrd, @cuppycakesbyjulie made this gem. Check her out, she's my go-to cake lady.
Sunday Brunch. . I may have bought too many boxes of fiddleheads this weekend so I'm seeking all forms of fiddlehead recipes (while snacking on this delicious toast and soaking up some patio Vitamin D). Please spam me below with your favourite ways to enjoy this delicious fern. 🌿☀️❤️
Saturday Vibes ❤️✌🏽️ . Seriously, that view though. Today was my first time hiking Joffre Lakes and I was literally mesmerized. The beautiful turquoise lakes, the glaciers in the not so far distance and the fact that there was no cell phone service allowed every single person to be present. . I am so thankful for my patient and motivational husband who helped guide me over endless alpine inclines. We climbed 380 meters in elevation to land this gorgeous view, celebrating my birthday weekend. . Anyone else here climbed Joffre Lakes?
Garden to table dinner for the win ❤️🌿 . I am so glad it's fiddlehead season! While those may not be from my garden, everything else except the micros is 😍 . To celebrate all things fiddlehead, I've partnered up with @vistamagcanada and @puricawellness for the tastiest and easiest recipe that will also improve your immunity and stress levels. . Simply clean and wash fiddleheads. Boil for 15 minutes to cook. Sauté in olive oil, salt and pepper and 1 tsp of Purica Complete 360 (a synergistic blend of ashwaghanda and eight medicinal mushrooms that support immunity and strengthen the bodies response to stress). Sauté for 2-3 mins and toss with your favourite microgreens. I added purple basil, crispy purple sage, parsley, borage and pansies with a squeeze of lemon juice. . #puricawellness #purica #medicinalmushrooms #vistamagcanada #vistaambassador
Wrapping up the long weekend with some patio Viognier and this ridiculously easy and healthy halibut dinner that took less than 5 ingredients (plus seasoning). . I've been gardening like crazy the past two weeks, and my herb garden is finally on point. Purple sage, purple basil, thyme, parsley and mint are growing strong; plus borage, purple and watermelon radish, Swiss chard and pansies are in full force. . Seriously, I get all the feels when it comes to my meals knowing that some of the ingredients I used came from my garden. . Here's to a summer full of everything seasonal, fresh, and literally backyard to table. ❤️☀️🌿✌🏽️
