When I’m looking for a fun treat for the kids, I make chocolate fondue, cake balls, fruit pizza or these bright and colorful homemade Cosmic Brownies. But let’s be real – the adults love these brownies just as much as the kids do. If you love brownie recipes, you’ll also adore my red velvet brownies, cheesecake brownies, Oreo brownies and blondies recipe. I grew up eating Cosmic Brownies from the Little Debbie box, and I wanted to share those awesome little fudgy bites with my kids....

The coziest mug of hot cocoa…for your Black Friday lounging…of course! Hoping you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your families!! I know so many of you made recipes from HBH. I’ve been loving taking a peek at your dishes on Instagram. It’s always so fun to see what everyone is making!! I’m feeling extra thankful for you all today!! And to thank you for your support? A mug of delicious steaming hot cocoa!...

Simple skillet dinners are my go-to right now. With December 25th quickly approaching things are busier than ever. This means I’m relying on easy dinners both for weeknights as well as for entertaining in the coming weeks. Last week I shared a creamy Tuscan inspired sun-dried tomato chicken and this week? Switching it up with salmon in a creamy spinach and artichoke sauce. Similar…ish, but different, and both so DELICIOUS....

Can you tell that I am slowly leaning us into the cozier dinners? I know it’s still hot in most places right now, but it is September 1st. We all know that chillier days are on the horizon. Fall will be here in the blink of an eye! I fully intend to soak up every last minute of the nice September weather, but with super crisp nights and slightly shorter days, I’m craving a little cozy too....

If there’s one thing my family universally loves, it’s taco night. We make my crispy chipotle beef tacos at least once a week. We’ve done so since I was a kid and my dad was cooking up dinner. Really, we love any Mexican-inspired recipe, they’re just so delicious. Sometime last year I shared a fun taquito recipe made with buffalo chicken. I adore that recipe. Those buffalo chicken taquitos are just so delicious!...

Wait, what?!? I did, I know these look like chocolate heaven (cause they are!), but they are actually full of all healthy ingredients. Double fist pump, please. Healthy things like zucchini (a whole cup full, that no one but you really needs to know about), buckwheat, coconut oil, cacao powder and ok a lot of dark chocolate. Clearly, I am a firm believer that good dark chocolate is also very good for your health…and don’t try to tell me otherwise…I most likely will not listen....

And it is, I promise. But there are a ton of ingredients, and for that I am sorry. But not that sorry, cause it’s still an easy and darn awesome recipe. Which honestly is what I need right now. Too bad I already made these, ate them and there are no leftovers in sight. Currently, I am working in a three bedroom condo, with absolutely NO light, and room for about six people....

It’s the day before Thanksgiving and I’m sharing my very first Christmas cookie of the season. And it’s such a yummy Christmas cookie too! I was going to wait to share this recipe until after all of the Thanksgiving feasts had concluded. But then my mom pointed out that there could be a few of you looking for last-minute cookies for tomorrow. Or maybe you have time off this week and are planning all of your Christmas cookie baking....

Rogan Josh is an aromatic lamb curry from Kashmiri cuisine. Quite popular for the aromatics and the tender lamb cooked in a spice blend special to Kashmiri cuisine, it is a very famous recipe. I have never had the privilege to visit the scenic beauty of Kashmir so far, but then have heard and read a lot Kashmiri recipes. Few months back I made a cauliflower yogurt based curry and loved it immensely....

They are seriously that good. I just want everyone to be able to experience them. Think about it, caramelized apples inside a fried puff pastry, sprinkled with a heavy amount of cinnamon sugar. If there was ever an apple dessert for you to make guys, this is it. No joking around here. You have to make these. For the full recipe, head over to Food 52. This weeks Link Love:...

I know we usually do cocktails on Saturday, but I’m switching things up and throwing you guys a curveball with a Thursday drink! It’s my first spring drink of the season and one I am very excited to share with you guys. I figured with Easter this Sunday, I wanted to share something new and springy for everyone to serve as their holiday cocktail. Just before I left for LA, something I was doing really inspired me to create a frozen drink....

My family loves Italian inspired appetizer recipes and side dishes like fried ravioli, caponata and these hot and delicious garlic knots. Serve these rolls with a side of marinara for dipping and watch the compliments come in! Garlic Knots Ingredients To make garlic knots you will need a can of pizza dough, melted butter, garlic powder, dried oregano, parsley and parmesan cheese. They’re the perfect side dish to any Italian meal along with other favorites like angel hair pasta, Italian salad and pasta pomodoro....

It’s no wonder that I am a breakfast person, I love breakfast the most of all the meals in a day. During the weekdays, we are always rushing in the morning and I end up making either idli or dosa. I always have a big batch of idli and dosa batter stocked in the fridge that it becomes really easy to make quick breakfast or dinner during busy work days....

When it comes to summer recipes I tend to favor the fruity, produce heavy recipes over the meaty grilling recipes. You all know I love a fruit-based dessert, a simple summer pasta…with all the cherry tomatoes, crostini with strawberries, or a dinner full of zucchini. Over the past almost 8 years of HBH, I haven’t shared very many recipes requiring the grill. But with July 4th this weekend I really wanted to share an easy grilling recipe....

That BUTTAH…it’s just too good not share. This is one of those recipes that’s barely a recipe. I mean, basically the recipe is for the butter. It’s literally clams and butter. Simple as that, but the clams?? They could not be better. Personally, I think the only way I can handle clams is one, if they are covered in cheese – like on a seafood pizza, two, served with pasta in a creamy and or buttery sauce, or three, just completely covered in butter....

Ever since I started the process of creating my own cookbook, I have had the utmost respect for any others who have been through this process, like whoa! Believe people when they tell you that writing a book is hard and will consume your life, BELIEVE them! My friend Heather who is maybe one of the kindest people out there, just came out with her new cookbook Pure Delicious on Tuesday, and today I finally get to share her gorgeous book with you!...

Guthi Vankaya or Stuffed Brinjal Fry is one of the most favorite Andhra special recipes for a lot of Telugites. My association with Brinjal or eggplant is always an oscillating one. From loving it to hearting it, I went to hating it to loathing it and the circle just continues. I am at a stage where I am loving this vegetable again and hence making it quite often these days....

I’ve been talking a lot about my family these days since a lot of my brothers are still here in Colorado. And, I’ve been doing a lot of my cooking with them in mind. Another silver lining from this past year is the ability for everyone’s schedules to slow a bit. My brothers have all been able to work more from Colorado, which means we’ve gotten to see everyone more this year than ever....

I might just turn into a wheel of brie by the time the week is over. I am so about the brie wheel. It’s kind of my favorite thing to serve over the holidays, it’s just so easy. I have yet to meet a person who does not LOVE brie. I always make this blue cheese appetizer (either on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day…haven’t decided yet for this year). But let’s be real, I feel like half the people love blue cheese and the other half hate it....
