Creamy cucumber salad is a simple yet satisfying dish that pairs perfectly with grilled chicken kabobs, turkey burgers, marinated salmon, and more. It contains just 7 basic ingredients and can be on your table in no time! Most of my favorite summer salads include cucumbers – they’re inexpensive, readily available, and so very versatile. This creamy cucumber salad is always at the top of my list, especially during hot summer days because of its light and refreshing taste....

I was not a kid who grew up enjoying bowls of cheese-topped French onion soup. Honestly, I didn’t grow up with onions at all. My mom has always been very opposed to anything with onions, so we just didn’t have them. Once I started cooking, for the first few years I too avoided using onions, thinking I didn’t like them. But then things started to change as I began diving into more and more recipes....

This December has been a special one in that four out of six of my brothers are here in Colorado all month. Normally, they’ll all come in the days leading up to Christmas, but with some snowboard events happening here all month long, the boys have been at home. And when I say the boys, I mean Kai and Red. Well, Creighton is here too. I’m not exactly sure of his reasoning for being here all month....

Yep, those nice guys out there who are trying to be all sweet and cook a fancy Valentine’s Day meal. If you happen to have (or be) one of those guys, might I just say to the girls, you are very lucky, you should probably hold on tight. Any guy that wants to cook for his girl is a keeper in my book. All the guys I know think girls should be in the kitchen and guys on the couch....

Happy Tuesday everyone!! I thought we’d brighten up the day with some of my favorite cookies. These are truly that melt in your mouth cookie that we could all use today. These cookies, plus a warm mug of hot chocolate, or maybe a pumpkin latte. Yes, sounds like the perfect way to de-stress. Whether it’s today, tomorrow, or throughout this busy end of the year holiday season, these should be your go-to....

Growing up in Cleveland, a lot of my time during the summer was spent at the pool soaking up the lazy summer days without a care in the world. And the best part about pool days? The pool snack bar…lots of chicken nuggets, french fries, and ice cream bars. Anyone else? What’s your favorite pool bar snack? To be very honest, I don’t remember ordering from the pool snack bar all that much....

Happy Monday everyone and welcome to the new HBH. I know it’s a bit different, but we’re all hoping you really love it and find it easy to use! As this design is new, it takes a while to work through all the kinks and get everything just right. So please bear with us as we adjust and try to make the new site a much better user experience My mom, who is the other half behind HBH, has been working endlessly to get things in place for this new design....

It’s Monday, but we’re making Sunday sauce. This recipe is so special. Of course, you can make it any day of the week. But I find it best when slow-cooked all Sunday long. Because there really is nothing cozier on a Sunday, than an incredible smelling dinner cooking away. Add to the ambiance with fresh garlic bread and a candle burning in the background. My ideal kind of fall night....

Listen, I know the month of March is nearing fast, and that some of you may have Spring on the mind, but let’s just be real, it’s still very cold outside. Or at least, it’s cold here in Colorado, with blustery winds and snow. More wind than snow, but just very cold. I hate to talk about weather, but I mean, come on, is anyone else having similar weather? I’m putting an emphasis on the weather because I’ve been spending a lot of time outside milking the goats, collecting chicken eggs, supplying both the chickens and goats with food and water, walking the dog, walking the dog some more…because he’s a puppy and his energy level is too much....

I wasn’t going to make this recipe. Wait, let me rephrase. I was always going to make this recipe, but I wasn’t thinking I would share this recipe. It felt, at the time, a little too soon after the very popular crunchy hot honey chicken recipe that I shared just over a month ago. These “wings” are basically the same, but swap the chicken for cauliflower. So it wasn’t rocket science to think this recipe up....

No but really, I am posting this specifically on Thursday so you can make this tomorrow. It is a must. Ready for another “when I was growing up” story? Well, I still feel like I am growing up. Probably because I totally am, but you get the point. Anyway, this pasta is hands down one of my favorite dinners. Yes, I say this a lot, BUT this pasta will always, always, be something I love to death....

You can easily make this dalia upma on stove top, Instant pot or pressure cooker. Sweet breakfast are not that common in India. A bowl of cornflakes soaked in honey sweetened hot milk was just for the weekends. On most days, we had buttered up parathas either stuffed with paneer or vegetables or with leftover sabji (curry) from dinner.The only sweet note to ours was that a tall glass of cold lassi that my grandma prepared in the summer mornings....

Looking for something a little different to serve at Thanksgiving this year? Try a fried turkey, along with homemade cranberry sauce, sweet potato casserole, corn pudding and green beans almondine, for a memorable meal that will earn you rave reviews. Deep Fried Turkey Ingredients This fried turkey recipe calls for a batch of my homemade turkey brine, a turkey and oil for frying such as peanut oil. After you make this delicious turkey try some of my leftover turkey recipes like turkey casserole, turkey noodle soup, turkey tetrazzini and turkey salad....

I like to pan fry hara bhara kebabs because that makes for a crispy crust and a moist center, the ideal texture we are looking to achieve. However, I am including air fryer method too in this post. Serve these veg kebabs with indian chutneys or a dip of your choice. While I was working on what Diwali recipes to share this year, I really wanted to have a vivid line up that would have something in store for everybody....

How many of you are fans of Cinnamon Buns?! We love our homemade eggless cinnamon rolls, especially with a hot cup of coffee! You all probably know about my Sourdough experiments and ever since I learnt that my starter is bubbly active, I wanted to bake some buns and the first successful recipe has been of this Eggless Sourdough Chocolate Cinnamon Buns. The thing with Sourdough Baking is that, it is not just the recipe but the ingredients, technique, process and of course your starter – everything play an important role in getting desired results....

Look, I’m not usually one to jump on trends, especially a food trend, but this folded wrap thing that’s going around on TikTok? It’s basically a new form of a quesadilla…and it’s a pretty genius idea. Have you guys seen it? You just take a tortilla, divide up your fillings between the four quarters of the wrap, then fold it all together into a triangle. Confused? Sorry, that probably makes no sense above, but if you look at my photos below, hopefully, you’ll understand....

I had to go and add GNOCCHI! Wait, what? Yes!! Gnocchi! And you guys, it’s just about as amazing as it sounds. For real, I have been dreaming about this soup… along with Friday’s recipe, which has nothing to do with this soup, except that I thought them up on the same day… for at least a month now. To say that I am excited to be sharing this soup would be an understatement....

Pork chops are a dinner time staple at my house. I routinely make brown sugar pork chops, mushroom pork chops, and these crispy and decadent fried pork chops covered in gravy. Everyone’s heard of fried chicken, but have you ever experienced fried pork chops? In my opinion, this is one of the most delicious ways to enjoy pork. The crispy coating with the tender, juicy meat inside just can’t be beat!...

There’s just something about fried food that makes it so delicious! When I’m looking to indulge a bit, I whip up a batch of fried ravioli, cream cheese wontons or this amazing fried zucchini. Fried Zucchini Ingredients To make fried zucchini you will need zucchini, Italian breadcrumbs, panko breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, 2 eggs, oil and chopped parsley. You may want marinara sauce for dipping. Make a party platter with some other appetizer recipes like fried mushrooms, baked chicken wings and onion rings!...

This recipe feels very fitting for today. I know it’s a bit springy, but after that past few days spent in LA I’m in full-on springtime mode. A full day of down pouring rain (like hard-core rain) on Wednesday, was followed by a beautiful sunny day, and another one is forecasted for today. The rain wasn’t all that much fun, but I soaked up the sun yesterday and had an amazing photoshoot in Malibu with this beautiful girl....
