I used to be a chickatarian and have recently turned into a full vegetarian. It wasn’t a very hard transition for me, considering I’m Indian and most of my food is vegetarian to begin with. However, as a past meat eater, I do miss certain tastes like buffalo or barbecue chicken. The inspiriation for this …
If you read my “Best Invention Ever” post then you know that I am currently obsessed with my babycakes machine. My trial recipe was vanilla cupcakes with dark chocolate frosting topped with a raspberry. To my surprise it came out AWESOME! Even if you don’t have a babycakes machine, this recipe is a must try! …
As a post-undergrad student (oh my god I feel so old), I know how it is to live off of Maggi/Ramen. It can get really boring and unsatisfying. Here’s a great recipe to jazz up your maggi/ramen noodles, without spending a lot of money, or putting in a lot of effort! I combine healthy broccoli …
If you haven’t noticed by now I love bold flavors and especially onions and garlic. This pasta salad recipe is a whole new take on the traditional Italian cold pasta dish. No more boring packet vinaigrettes or raw veggies in your salad. Plus this is a great way to have a fast lunch at home …
Who needs a hamburger when you can turn a veggie burger into literally ANYTHING?! I know that a vegetarian’ freezer definitely has a package of veggie burgers. Don’t lie, you do!

Looking to make a one-person, inexpensive and relatively fast dinner? This is the dish for you! What’s cool about is, you can make just one for yourself, or quickly whip up another for an unexpected friend! I was low on the groceries this evening, so I basically put together some ingredients that we had around …
Got a few minutes for lunch but don’t know what to make? Try my Indian take on a classic American sandwich- Grilled Cheese. It’s fast, CHEAP and oo soo satisfying! America is a melting pot full of different cultures, ethnicities, foods, religions, people- you name it! The Indian population is growing rapidly, so much so that …
It’s fall there’s a bit of a nip in the air, but it’s still warm enough for me to make my yummy cold coffee! (And by “my” I mean my mother’s recipe since she used to make this for me all the time as a little kid!) 1-2 tbsp of instant coffee (depending on how …
Whoever said you’re only allowed to eat hummus from a Sabra tub or from Mamouns in NYC? Tonight I made a yummy roasted garlic and chili hummus, to accompany our (my family’) falafel sandwiches.
