Like a whole two days! But it was two day’s too long and really if feels like a lot longer since this idea has been in the works for two weeks now. Yeah, two weeks. That’s a long time for something to just be stewing in my head. I think it is one of my life goals to create as many unique buffalo recipes as possible. Example 1: Homemade Soft Pretzels with Hot Buffalo Cheddar Cheese Sauce Example 2: Buffalo Oven Fried Goat Cheese Example 3: Buffalo Chicken Quinoa Salad...

When I have extra ham on hand after the holidays, I use it in dishes such as slow cooker ham bone soup, easy hash brown egg casserole, a Cuban sandwich, ham and beans, and this flavorful ham and corn chowder. I always make an extra large ham when the holidays roll around, because to me, it isn’t a proper holiday meal unless there are a lot of leftovers to enjoy the next day!...

Not gonna lie, I can get a little board of zucchini this time of year, BUT not if it involves these muffins or this Hoisin Salmon with Zucchini Slaw from the new Inspiralized Everything cookbook by Ali Maffucci. Oh my gosh, this salmon…and every other recipe in this book… are beyond delicious. I am so excited to be sharing Ali’s new book with you guys today. Not only are the recipes all incredibly creative and completely delicious sounding, but they’re all made on the healthy side!...

Or breakfast or in my case dinner, but then this sauce happened and since this said lunch includes this Harissa sauce I felt I had to share this first. But, I am making it known that you have a very, no highly delicious, meal coming your way and I am jumping out of my skin to share it with you. But not tomorrow, and I think we all know why it is not happening tomorrow....

These bowls kind of remind me of burrito bowls, but I like them better. I ditched the beans (my least favorite ingredient), doubled the onions, and doubled the peppers. Instead of salsa, I used my favorite super simple honey-lime vinaigrette. The only things missing were a handful of cheese and a side of chips, which I honestly added after the photos. You can never go wrong with some cheese and chips!...

When the holidays roll around, I always have a turkey on the table. Whole roasted turkeys are impressive, simple to make, and are popular with both kids and adults alike. Add a few festive Thanksgiving recipes such as Thanksgiving appetizer recipes, slow cooker cranberry sauce, sweet potato casserole with pecans, broccoli casserole, sausage stuffing and bacon green beans, then watch the rave reviews come in. Have you ever cooked a turkey before?...

And just like that, we’ve made it to Friday! When I was a kid, Friday was my absolute favorite day of the week. Friday meant it was the last day of school and I had two full days of absolutely zero school ahead of me. It was always such a relief once Friday finally rolled around. Plus, I knew that after school there would be a very good chance I could convince my mom to bake something sweet with me, normally cookies....

I made these as an offering to Lord Ganesha on occasion of Ganesh Chaturthi. In our family even though the celebrations didn’t look as elaborate as in other parts of India, a small pooja was conducted and my grandmother offered homemade ladoos, lighted a lamp and chanted during this time of the year. Ladoo is one of the most popular sphere shaped mithai (sweet ) made in the indian subcontinent....

During summers I love making mango desserts. Last year, I created recipes using mango pulp like mango rasmalai and mango tres leche cake. Fresh mangoes are here and we are super excited! Sandesh is a quick dessert which is popular during indian festivals like Navratri (Durga Puja), Poila Baiskah (Benagli New Year), Diwali. There are a ton of flavors when it comes to bengali sandesh. In this post, I am sharing recipe of mango sandesh or aam sondesh....

I bet you won’t be able to stop munching them, these can get dangerously additcive! You can adjust the spice profile to your liking. We likes ours pretty tangy & hot. My spice blend recipe reflects the same. I usually go for the deep fried version becasue I make them just once a year duing diwali and allow ourselves the indulgence! However, I have also tested the oven roasted cashew method and I am including the instructions for the same in this post....

I’ve always hesitated to share simple recipes like today’s salad. But I often forget that sometimes not everyone might think to put certain foods together. So while a recipe might be simple, I’m slowly learning that it’s still worth sharing with you guys. The truth is, I went back and forth on this salad, should I make it? Is it too simple? Would anyone even care about a melon salad?...

Bhelpuri, a very popular street food in India happens to be my most favorite. Usually, puffed rice is mixed with a variety of ingredients like raw onions, tomatoes, boiled potatoes, different types of chutneys (sweet tangy + spicy mint), spice powders along with fine sev to prepare Bhelpuri. It’s one of the simplest snacks one can make in a jiffy, and it tastes quite good too. Recently, one of my blog friends posted about her food discoveries and that’s when I learnt about Mexican Bhel for the first time....

So summer is officially here and I am sharing one of the magical recipes using one of the magical summer ingredients – buttermilk. Yogurt and buttermilk have a lot of good medicinal properties, while I am not going to bore you with all the details, here is what you need to know – to escape this hot hot summer, keep yourself hydrated enough. Natural cool drinks are always better than store-bought, straight off the carton kind of stuff....

{pictured above: Baked Buttermilk Pumpkin Doughnuts with Hot Cocoa Glaze} Eleven days and counting to be exact, which means… it’s time for my annual round-up of My Favorite Autumn Recipes! YES. I literally look forward to this post every single year. Going through all my old pumpkin, apple, pomegranate and squash recipes just gets me so excited for what’s to come in the next few months. The weather here has already turned cool and crisp and even our leaves are beginning to change to their golden-yellow and orange colors....

So the next Andhra style pickle recipe that I am going to share is made with spicy red chillies, called as pandu mirapakayalu. During summers that is the peak pickle season in Andhra, we get fresh red chillies. Traditionally these red chillies are hand pounded with salt and turmeric powder. This stays well for over a year stored in ceramic jars and whenever needed, all one has to do is temper it....

Today is the auspicious day of Varalakshmi Vratam and also is the festival of Onam. On this day, the women of the house (South Indians) usually prepare 5 or 7 or 9 or 11 varieties of special dishes (neivedhyam) for the Goddess Varalakshmi, fasting and performing special Pooja (prayers). These specialties prepared range from different rice recipes, sweets and deep fried goodies. My Amma is a very religious person and would do Varalakshmi Pooja every Friday of the Shraavana Maasam....

Today I am sharing a simple one-pot rice recipe that comes together very quickly. So you can see that I am still on a pepper high with another pepper flavored recipe, following Mushroom Pepper Fry. Pepper Rice or Milagu Sadam is amazingly flavorful and mildly spiced with roasted, powdered black pepper. Over the weekend when I planned to use the fresh mushrooms to make the side dish, my original plan was to make Jeera Rice....
