Instant Pot Indian Mashed Vegetables || Paav Bhaji (Paleo, AIP)

Cauliflower Naan || Paleo and AIP Naan
Darn, the name gave the secret away 🙂 I was debating what to name it and was thinking of just calling it Paleo and AIP Naan without giving away my secret 🙂 Anyway this naan was the highlight of my week this week. And so without much ado, just as I promised to you […]
Gluten free and Grain free Chapati / Roti (Paleo, AIP, Vegan)
Chapati or Roti, is a staple of Indian cuisine. After all, the delicious creamy curries need a sturdy vehicle to sop them all up! Although rice is more commonly eaten in a typical southern Indian household (as in ours) , whole wheat rotis do have an important place too. Nowadays, for my family I make […]
Shahi Cauliflower Pilaf ‘Rice’ (Paleo, Vegan, AIP)

Quinoa Dosa || Savory Quinoa Crepes || (Gluten Free, Vegan)

Falooda Smoothie || 3 layered Noodle Smoothie (Paleo, Vegan, AIP)
What the heck is falooda?

This dessert with slight variations is quite popular in Pakistan and other neighboring countries of India as well. ‘Falooda’ […]
Mini Coconut Custard Tarts || Mini Custard Fruit Tarts (Vegan, Paleo, AIP)
“Every accomplishment starts with the decision to try.” – Anonymous As always with my creations, I was struggling to get the right name for these babies too!
