With this easy recipe of achaari baingan you will make a saucy achari baigan masala without stuffing the eggplants. Serve with rotis/ paratha or with dal-rice for a satisfying indian meal. I grew up eating my grandmother’s handmade achaars (the best!) throughtout the year. Because there were homemade achar during very season, many times there were achar spice powders lying around inside kitchen cabinets waiting for the next round of pickling....

Bacon makes everything better, especially when it’s paired with potatoes! These potato wedges come out so crispy that they taste deep fried even though they’re actually baked. You can’t go wrong with bacon wrapped appetizer recipes like my bacon wrapped shrimp and bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers!

These bacon wrapped potatoes are a great way to enjoy the flavor of crispy french fries with the addition of smoky bacon....

This was a very last-minute recipe that I made on Sunday with Mother’s Day in mind. Instead of overthinking it, I just decided to make it. And now? Well, now I couldn’t be more excited to share the recipe. I had the realization Sunday morning that I haven’t yet shared anything for a Mother’s Day brunch. Usually, I’ll share at least one new recipe with you guys to help celebrate our moms....

I am a big fan of baked snacks, but tell me who isn’t?! When you get tasty stuff with low calories and zero guilt, you wouldn’t say no, would you? For months, I had been meaning to try out baked potato wedges. Since I don’t like deep fried stuff, this snack idea seemed apt. Only that every time I planned on making it, something or the other happened and I couldn’t try it at all....

Cheesy, mushroom heavy, fall inspired pizza! YES. And it’s kind of perfect because I am celebrating another milestone in my cookbook journey with a now complete manuscript, and recipes that I’m literally jumping out of my skin to share with you guys!! ?

Monday is made better with this recipe, it’s true. I made this a couple of weeks ago and I’ve been waiting until June to share it with you guys. This is such a summer recipe. It’s hands down, one of my favorite dinners right now. Shockingly, I have never really made anything like this chicken before. This is my first pan-fried chicken (it’s not deep-fried, so still healthy..ish). And not so shockingly, I love it, as you probably have noticed....

Yesterday I shared our 2018 Thanksgiving menu. Over the next couple of weeks I’ll be sharing all the new recipes for this year’s Thanksgiving feast.

Well, I took in all of your suggestions, and will soon be sharing new recipes for all three!...

Not sure there’s a better way to welcome in the weekend than with these bars. These remind me so much of Thanksgiving, they’ve got me so excited. I’m not jumping ahead by any means, just excited for all that’s to come in the next couple of months. The world has had a tough year, everyone can agree on that. But in my eyes, at least the holidays will end the year on a bright and happy note, you know?...

And just like that, it’s already December twenty-third. This month flew by quicker than any other this year. My thoughts? I am so sad the month is coming to an end and that Christmas Eve is tomorrow. Of course, I’m excited for the holiday and time with family, but I would have loved to have a bit more time to actually celebrate the season. With Thanksgiving being so late this year, the Christmas season just felt way too short....

My family loves it when I serve a hearty pasta dish for dinner. Some of their favorites include creamy shrimp linguine, penne alla vodka, pizza pasta and this zesty Cajun shrimp pasta. I often make shrimp for dinner because it cooks so quickly and is packed with protein. This Cajun shrimp pasta is one of my very favorite ways to serve seafood. Best of all, this dish tastes like it came from a fancy restaurant, but you can enjoy it in the comfort of your own home....

I know that it’s not quite the official cookie season yet, but we are so close. So close that I am actually getting sad that it will be over soon… I know, I know. Shut up. Also, who does not love cookies? Cookies are good at ALL times. I didn’t really mean for these cookies to happen, but then they did, because the name buttery pecan just sounded so delish....

It’s the 4th of July week! I feel like so many of us are slowly entering into vacation mode. I know the 4th isn’t until Sunday, but many of us are either traveling, taking time off to chill, or hosting a fun backyard party this week. As you know, we’re heading to Mexico next week. We’re renting a really great house through VRBO with a nice kitchen. With so many people in our group, it’s essential to have a kitchen on these family trips....

Some recipes are just classic, like salisbury steak and slow cooker mac and cheese. Chicken and rice soup is also on the list, and this is the perfect meal for cold weather or a sick day.

Fall officially begins next Saturday, but at home in Colorado, now is our fall. The days are cooler, the nights are pretty chilly, and our leaves have begun to change to shades of light yellow. Even here in New York, there are trees scattered throughout the city with yellow leaves, it’s so pretty. With cooler days here, or at least cooler nights here, I love the idea of noodles in a steamy, simmering broth....
