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 […]

Home made Nutella || Hazelnut and Chocolate Spread (Paleo, Vegan)
‘Mom, I don’t know about this…is it going to be good? I mean Nutella is so good! Why can’t we have just that?’ ‘Have you checked the ingredients list for Nutella? Refined Sugar is the first ingredient! And then there is skim milk too. Two ingredients that mess up your metabolism and digestion’! “Anyways, let […]
Cassava Crepes || Cassava Rotis (No Knead, No Roll)
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 […]
Easy Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp (Paleo, AIP, Vegan)
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 […]
Sweet Plantain Fritters (Paleo, AIP, Vegan)
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 […]
Instant Pot Kappa Puttu || Cassava ‘Rice’ (Paleo, AIP)
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 […]

Easy Mixed Berry Compote (Paleo, AIP, Vegan)
This is one multi-purpose recipe and great to have it handy! For a multitude of dishes. And it’s so easy to make that I never even thought of posting this recipe before. But one of my friends recently asked me how I make this when she saw one of my ‘berrilicious’ posts on instagram. So […]
Jackfruit 101 and a recipe for ‘Kerala Style Jackfruit Stir fry’ (Paleo, AIP, Vegan)
Not many folks are familiar with Jackfruit. Is it a fruit or a vegetable some will ask! And even fewer folks are aware that the ripe jackfruit is very different from the raw aka green or tender jackfruit. Well if you are new to jackfruit (or rather if Jackfruit is new to you), no worries, […]
Fudgy Chocolate Brownies (Paleo, AIP, Vegan)
Brownies are a girl’s best friend! At least I used to think so when I was younger and pre-AIP 🙂 It is not funny how some foods that used to be your comfort for days when you were feeling a little low, get thrown outside the window when you embark on a healing diet. And worse […]
Chocolate Cup Cakes with fruity frosting (Paleo, AIP, Vegan)
What gave me this idea of making these colorful cup cakes? I mean my kids are not so young anymore (I know… very sad!) and they are not old enough for me to be having grand kids either 🙂 Well, today is Holi , which is the festival of colors and in India, it is […]
Grain Free Naan || Indian Flatbread (Paleo, AIP, Vegan)
Yess! I made Naan(Indian flatbread) and….it tastes even better than the real Naan! I actually tried this recipe for the first time last year sometime in summer. I loved it but I wanted to test it once again before I posted the recipe so I waited. And then summer came and along with it all […]
