Flavorful Paleo and AIP recipes
I make grain free flatbreads regularly using cassava flour. I also make a pizza crust that I have shared before but I have been making it since so long that I have now revised the recipe a bit to make it even better! This week I decided to do a video for that recipe […]
The very mention of ‘Halwa’ is likely to cause increased salivation in most Indians! And if you have been on a gluten free diet, then halwa just gets tossed out of your life 🙁 Halwa had always been my favorite, favorite dessert! Actually growing up my mom used to occasionally make ‘Broken Wheat […]
February being the month of our wedding anniversary (and Valentine’s Day of course), it always makes me want to bake something special and I try to create a new dessert every year. Since the last three years, these desserts have been Paleo and / AIP. This year I wanted to bake cookies for some reason. […]
“Me making a Mug Cake? No! That’s never going to happen!” Yes that was me until a few months ago! I really was against such sweet treats since I thought they would derail me from my healing journey. I also thought that cooking in a microwave oven was bad. Especially if you cooked stuff in […]
There is something incredibly delicious about this combination of bananas and coconut! If you have not tried them together, then you need to rectify that! Of course both of these are tropical fruits and banana plants and coconut palms are found together in most homes in Kerala, which is in southern India. And therefore not […]
I honestly don’t know why it took me so long to try making a Paleo snack bar! In my pre-paleo days, I used to make these ‘no bake’ breakfast bars and also a baked version of breakfast bars which I still make for my children. I have been meaning to try making a Paleo version for the longest […]
Ada is a traditional keralan food where different kinds of stuffings are stuffed inside a rice flour dough and then steamed by wrapping them in banana leaves! As a kid, I loved the ‘Adas’ with the sweet coconut fillings. Yum! I have made a sweet potato version of these sweet coconut filling dumplings which you […]
How is your summer coming along guys? Mine seems to be rolling by in fast forward motion and I am having trouble keeping up! I just returned from spending time with family in India and although we had an awesome time, it was quite hectic since we traveled quite a bit trying to meet up […]
As soon as June sets in, I am thinking of strawberries! And getting them fresh from the local farms! Although picking had started a couple weeks ago, I have been so busy with my nutritional coaching and my speaking engagements that I had not been able to go to the farms yet. Until today that […]
I had never had Fish Pie in my life until our recent trip to London. I had never heard of it either. Our trip was pretty short – we were there for a bit less than 5 days total. But our culinary experience there during that time was phenomenal! The food scene in […]
Plantain fritters are a traditional snack of Kerala and I have posted the traditional version of Pazham Pori (as it is called in malayalam) earlier. Now of course I make the gluten free and grain free version using cassava flour. I actually prefer the texture of this version now more than the traditional version. Also I do […]
Puttu is a breakfast food that originates from the southern Indian state of Kerala. It is usually made from rice flour. But a variation of that is using kappa (which is the malayalam word for cassava) and kappa puttu is mostly made using fresh kappa (cassava) since most households in kerala have cassava plants growing […]
