Banana Split Cake

I love to serve no-bake desserts because they’re easy to make and always a huge hit with family and friends.

It’s a real showstopper, towering high with layers of crust, cheesecake, fruit, chocolate, nuts, sprinkles, and of course, cherries. This dessert is the ultimate treat for summer parties and potlucks....

Beetroot Kurma

My mom is a Kurma specialist. Growing up, Vegetable Kurma was one of my favorites and Amma made it atleast once a week. On the days she used to make Kurma, I would have an extra dosa or chapati, for it used to be very very tasty. I still don’t know how my Mom used to take care of the house, kitchen and the cooking while handling a bunch of people – including the in-laws....

Bhatura Bhature Bhatura In Chole Bhatura

Bhatura, a leavened Indian fried bread is quite popular all over India although it is from Punjab originally. Chole Bhature, as it is called usually is something you will find in almost all restaurants. A special Punjabi Chole is prepared as a side dish and it is a match made in heaven. And this comes from a person who doesn’t like to make or eat deep fried food. I make exceptions very rarely and this is one of the best indulgences....

Blackened Salmon Fish Tacos

Plain and simple ground beef taco’s. The boys love taco’s. Probably because they are just that plain and simple beef, soft or hard taco shells, and a whole lot cheese. Fish tacos however are a different story. Six out of the nine of us despise fish. One of the three that happens to love fish lives in another state. So fish is a very rare occurrence in our house....

Blood Orange Champagne Mule

{these two people are my favs} Oh my gosh, I cannot believe that I’m actually writing the very last post of the year, but it’s here, and come Sunday, it will be 2017…and come Monday we’ll be talking all about healthy eats! First though, I thought we needed to ring in the New Year with some bubbles, and apparently some sparkles too. I mean, it is New Years and I feel as though pulling out all the stops is totally necessary, right?...

Brigadeiros Brazilian Chocolate Truffles

That is a one line title up there. I honestly never thought I could do it, but I did… and it was pretty easy…. But don’t get used it. Okay, so I just have to say that I do not normally go so heavy on the the sprinkles, but something happened on the very snowy day I made these that made me feel like all the sprinkles would be a good idea....

Brown Sugar Maple Pecan Cookie Pie

The pie I’ve been waiting to share! I’ve had this planned in my head for weeks, the recipe tested, and I’ve now made it more times than I probably should have. But goodness gracious, this pie is scrumptious! I’ve shared before that my mom is the baker of the family, and my dad is the cook. Growing up, Mom would make all the desserts—no one bakes better than her! Two of her specialties were her cookie pie and her pecan pie....

Brownie Batter Cheesecakes With Fudge Brownie Crust

They found our car…….. Get this, at the rec center! How crazy is that? The person who stole the car, who we think may have been a women or a young teen because of how small the footprints in the snow were and how close the driver’s seat was to the wheel (they did have to know how to drive a manual transmission vehicle though) put it right back where they got it from....

Brownie Burfi Bites

These heavenly squares are a perfect blend of chocolatey goodness and milky indulgence with the subtle notes of saffron. The fusion of saffron and chocolate is a flavor profile I’ve explored before, as in mini brownie saffron cheesecake bites. I took my favorite eggless brownie recipe and made it better, or so I think. My kids really enjoy fusion flavors where I tie togther the taste desserts that are familiar to them with flavors of indian mithai....

Cauliflower Shawarma Wraps With Green Tahini And Feta

What I love most about cooking is that you don’t have to follow any rules. You can make whatever you want, however you want, you just have to love it, and that’s all that matters. It’s fun for me because I get to be creative and think outside the box, which I will not lie, can be hard at times, but thinking this way just keeps me on my toes!...

Cheesy Green Chile And Avocado Rice Quesadillas

I’m sure I’ve shared this story before, but when I first started cooking as a young teen, I would make quesadillas. Nothing fancy, just really delicious food. Cheesy quesadillas are just of those meals that everyone loves! My brothers would eat them almost every day. They’d usually go snowboarding after school (once we had moved to Colorado), so when they got off the hill they always needed a pre-dinner snack....

Cheesy Margherita Pizza Hummus With Grilled Pesto Pizza Bread

I think I have had one, but never actually made one. Kind of weird, huh? I mean, I l know it is a super classic pizza, but I don’t know it’s just not in the circle of pizzas I make. This is probably due to the fact that most of the year tomatoes are just no good unless they are those sweet little grape/cherry/tom-tom tomatoes (what do YOU call umm?...

Cheesy Spinach Sweetcorn Cannelloni

I love Italian food. And I am sure that would be quite evident from the number of Pasta dishes I post on this blog. Pasta is made atleast once a week in our house and it is something both the husband and I love. Apart from the usual fusilli, penne and the likes I simply love Lasagna. That said, it is a bit time consuming due to the different ingredients and the texture combinations....
