Flavorful Paleo and AIP recipes
Tapioca or Yucca or Cassava has become one important component of my diet these days since I am avoiding all grains and all other starches. I mostly just boil fresh yucca pieces (after peeling and chopping them) with sea salt. Or eat them with onion chutney. And they taste delicious! I also have been making the tapioca […]
I love Instagram! Don’t know why I stayed away from it for so long! I am loving meeting different food bloggers and seeing their inspiring creations! Am I inspired? Nope, I am floored! Gosh, so much talent out there and so many young kiddos creating such cool stuff. One of my favorite things in the morning […]
Healthy snacks are a big thing for me. I am constantly trying to make snacks that are nutritious and wholesome and that will satisfy two growing kids. One of whom is a teenager! The hunger pangs start as soon as they get home from school although I make it a point to pack a healthy […]
I have been ‘refined sugar’ free for more than a year now and tell you what…I don’t miss it at all! In fact I feel so awful that I was eating all that unnecessary refined sugar all these years. Once you go completely sugar free you will start reaching out for the natural sugars as […]
Beef Cutlets are a specialty of Kerala’s Christian community. Growing up in Mumbai, we had ‘Mallu (short for malayalee which in turn means someone who belongs to Kerala 🙂 ) Christian’ neighbors. Kunjimol aunty always hosted great parties – be it Christmas or Easter or her kids’ birthday parties! One of the appetizer dishes was […]
Since my recent post on smoothies, many folks have continued to ask me for ideas on different combinations of veggies and fruits that I use.

Some will say plantains, bananas …what’s the difference? Well, both of them belong to the Banana family however there are some differences. Plantains are starchier, contain less sugar than bananas and are much more versatile as a cooking ingredient – you can make both savory and sweet dishes with them. Both Green plantains as well as ripe yellow plantains are used […]
Did I read ‘A healthy recipe challenge’? Wow, now that’s the kind of thing that gets my attention! And a challenge hosted by dear Angie of Fiesta Friday? Now that is one that I cannot ignore, can I? Especially considering the fact that for the last 18 months I have been scouring for knowledge combing through […]
Happy New Year folks! Let’s start the New Year with something sweet and delicious! Which also looks very pretty! Yeah I made this chocolate bark for our New Year’s Eve party and everyone both adults and kids loved it.! And the best part is – its a breeze to make! All you have to do […]
Granola had been on my list to make for ever. I don’t know why it took so long for me to try it. Especially since I have made Homemade cereal bars before which has been a big hit in my house. Granola is actually much easier to make since you don’t need to chop the […]
What do you do with all those pumpkins you had around your house for decoration? I am sure most of you do use (I do hope you do because seriously otherwise there would be so much wastage of food !) up the pumpkin flesh. Very simple to cut the pumpkin into 2-4 big pieces and […]
Last time I asked my husband to get peanut butter for the kids snacks, he got a giant jar of it. Which of course the kids were only too happy about. But that instantly got me thinking about utilizing this peanut butter into other recipes! I had also been wanting to bake healthy recipes and had purchased […]
