I mean, for something like the Super Bowl…I’m thinking no. Plus all game day festivities need at least one buffalo dish, and this year, these buffalo cheddar soft pretzel twists are on my list. Think soft pretzel, meets cheese, meets buffalo sauce…all topped with everything bagel spice. It may seem like a lot, but it’s actually just the best thing ever, and the everything spice is like the icing on the cake, totally the best!...

Parathas are my absolute favorite. I know I tell this for almost every single recipe and post, but in my defense this blog is all about my favorite food 🙂 Ok.. getting back to why Parathas are my favorite – in one dish you get two things. When I make rotis or phulkas, I have to prepare a side dish – some curry or gravy to dunk the bread. But with Parathas that are stuffed rotis, they are so good to eat as it is....

You can never go wrong with french fries, whether it’s sweet potato fries, carne asada fries, or these flavor packed cheese fries. Whenever I see cheese fries on a restaurant menu, I have to order them. The crispy fries paired with creamy melted cheese just can’t be beat! My homemade cheesy fries are even better than what you’d get at a restaurant, and they happen to be easy to make....

Not technically a cookie, but this granola tastes like an oatmeal cookie that’s been crumbled up, and you guys it is so good. I took this cookie granola with me for a super quick trip to Aspen this past weekend for the X-Games, and even though I was there less than twenty-four hours, the entire batch had been devoured by the time I left. It’s that good. But then who wouldn’t enjoy a cookie-like granola to snack on, you know?...

However, I can assure you that this chocolate barfi recipe holds appeal for adults as well. This easy recipe has a creamy & chocolaty essence and can be prepared quickly using just a handful of ingredients. No special equipments needed!...

It is a complete white out right now. Like white as can be, snow coming down so hard. Been going strong all day. It’s the perfect weather for a nice cold ice cream cone! Just perfect! Seriously though, the last time I made ice cream it was also snowing. Whats up? Colorado you can pound me with snow all you want, but that sure as heck is not going to stop me from making ice cream....

I have dinner all figured out for us tonight! Coconut Lime Chicken Curry! With spring getting closer and closer, I’m loving the idea of brighter dishes. That said, it’s still pretty cold and snowy here. I know a lot of you East Coaster’s are currently covered in the fluffy white stuff too! So cozy food is nevertheless a must. Fortunately, this recipe does double duty by combining both fresh and cozy!...

This corn dish is a must-have for Thanksgiving, Christmas and any other family gathering.

Yeah, well this creamed corn pasta with fried herbs is one of those recipes. All summer long I’ve been trying to follow the motto, simple is best, and this pasta is just that. It focuses on two main summer garden staples, corn and fresh herbs. I used a little butter, and a lot of cheese, and I finished off with some pan-fried herbs. I’m telling you, it’s kind of perfect....

When I go too long without making tacos the family begins to notice. And slowly the requests for tacos start to roll in. I know I speak about them all the time, but my dad’s tacos are the favorite of the bunch. So much so that we included them on our Home Chef menu. What we love about them is the crispy hard shells and melty cheese. More often than not, people enjoy tacos in soft flour tortillas with no melty cheese....

I hate them! Not only do I hate them, I can not make them for the life of me. Yeah, I am one of those annoying people. For example, I just spent way too long trying to narrow down my pictures from thirteen to six. Meaning I actually had to decide which seven to delete and which six to keep. It was awful. I am so indecisive that I actually called my mom and we looked through my photos together over the phone....

And with a few minor tweaks here and there. Traditionally the pork is thinly sliced and then roasted in a rotisserie oven, but I personally do not have a rotisserie oven and I am guessing most of you do not either. So I went the much easier route and seared the heck out of my pork and then threw it in the crockpot. Done and done. Maybe not as awesome as if you where to get them in Greece, but still pretty freaking good....

I have been really excited to share this recipe of Eggless Banana Chocolate Brownies ever since I tried them a couple of weeks ago and finally, here I am 🙂 At the beginning of the covid lockdown, the world survived on a couple of things – banana bread and sourdough. Suddenly, everyone was either making banana cake, banana muffins and banana bread or started with their sourdough process (including moi) Both the interests are slowly dwindling down, but not in our household!...

On this occasion, I am putting up a sweet recipe – homemade eggless doughnuts. Few months back, my sister tried out these eggless doughnuts at home. They looked so beautiful and super inviting. I made a mental note to try her recipe. Being someone who doesn’t particularly love doughnuts, I kept putting it out until few days back. As luck would have it, sister forgot her recipe and thus began our search to figure it out again....

Here is a quick and easy summer dessert that is lip-smacking delicious – Elaneer Payasam. This south Indian dessert is made from tender coconut flesh and water, very different from most of the other payasam or kheer recipes. It is light and refreshing, having made from very few ingredients that are available in anyone’s fridge. Tender Coconut as nature’s bounty has a lot of health benefits, it is a natural coolant apart from re-hydrating one’s body with rich nutrients....

**Heads up, there are a ton of step-by-step shots in the post, if you just want the recipe scroll down through them . I really need to learn to write thoughts down the second they come into my head, because no matter how much I think I can remember something, I can’t. This is the case today. See, earlier I had this great idea about what to tell you guys all about in today’s post, but at this very moment I have not a clue what it was thinking....

Cabbage is such an underrated vegetable in my opinion – it’s inexpensive, available year round, and totally delicious!
