Flavorful Paleo and AIP recipes
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 […]
How long have you been on the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) diet? Have you been feeling like you need a good curry recipe that will make you feel pampered?

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.

“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 […]

In addition to having various minerals and vitamins, colored vegetables also have phytonutrients in them and these phytonutrients function as antioxidants slowing the […]
Chicken Tikka Masala and Butter Chicken are two quintessential Indian ‘curry’ dishes that you will always find in all Indian restaurants. Are these authentic Indian dishes? Not necessarily so. Are they really popular? Like heck they are! Among the non-Indian populace that is! I personally would never order either of these dishes even in […]
Holiday season means you are entitled to some treats! However you can make ‘healthier’ versions of traditional treats with just a little bit of imagination.

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 […]
Tandoori Chicken is such a quintessential Indian dish that ALL Indian restaurants have that on their menu without fail! It also never fails to impress! The tenderness of the meat combined with the flavors of ginger, garlic, lime and of course the smoky flavor that comes from the ‘tandoor’ or the clay oven. Sounds […]
When I sent the above pic to my husband, his first reaction was ‘ What? Where did the worms come from?’ He He, I felt good – my worms looked real! Thanks to these gummy worm molds that I ordered from amazon. Making these was a breeze! Getting that dirty brownish green color for the worms […]
Yes it is that time of the year again! The festival season! Being a transplant from India settled in the US, the holiday season for us starts from September itself! Our celebrations first begin with Onam which is a harvest festival celebrated by southern Indians (yes that would be us 🙂 ) followed by Diwali […]
Fall is so beautiful…the colors, the weather and all the autumn vegetables! Yes I get equally excited about pumpkins and acorn squash as I get excited about blueberries in summer!
