Time to get corny. No, not corny jokes (although I have PLENTY of those), but something deliciously corny to eat! Okay hear me out – and this is a no judgment zone, so please, no judging(!) – please tell me you’ve heard of Chi Chi’s (if you live in the States)?? You know, the super …
Churro “Taquitos” with Sweet Cream Filling (Vegan)
Alright we all love churros. I’m pretty sure you all have tried a taquito and I know y’all dig cannolis. And that is exactly what this is. But! Before I continue on with my churro journey, you’re probably wondering why I look so fabulous! Well, this recipe and episode of “Cook With Chef Pri at …
Mexican Pita Pizzas (Vegan)
Yes, you can make pizza out of pita. Don’t believe me? Just ask my Momma! Yeah, that’s right. She used to make use these yummy Mexican pita pizzas layered with spicy beans, cheese, sour cream, lettuce, tomato – the works. It was simple, fast, filling, and was a much healthier version of our beloved Taco …
Copycat Taco Bell Crunchwrap Supreme, Vegan
I love it, you love it, we all love it. TACO BELL. I can confidently say that I have not met an Indian person (at least in the States) that dislikes Taco Bell, or even a non-Indian person. It is the only fast food chain that caters to vegetarian AND vegans for a long time, …
Southwestern Butternut Squash Bisque
Honestly, never been a huge soup person with a few exceptions – my Maa’s tomato soup with homemade croutons, pasta fagioli (cause I’m basically half Italian growing up in Shaolin), and Panera’s broccoli cheddar soup, until I found out it’s made with chicken stock and has enough fat and sodium for a months worth of …
5 Best Things to Eat in Mexico City [CDMX]!
Mexico City or CDMX is a hot spot now! Every other weekend, I know someone new visiting there! Why? My assumption is the proximity to America, frequent & direct flights, short flight time, favorable USD to Peso conversion, and most importantly a potential, disastrous and silly looming wall to be built [rolls eyes]. I visited …

Wild Rice Stuffed Eggplant with Chipotle
I like making dishes that combine ingredients and flavors from different cultures- usually Indian flavors with others. I think most people tend to shy away from bold ingredients, like clove, chili, and spices. So I like to make dishes that help people ease into using some of these rather strong ingredients. I think when used …
Veggie ‘Tostada’ with Roasted Tomato-Pepper Sauce
You all know my obsession with Mexican food and taco bell, but sometimes it’s nice to stay in and make it yourself. It’s also a LOT healthier, considering whenever I go to Taco Bell I’m “starving” and order enough for 5 adults and 2 small starving children. So try making this healthy tostada – super …
Mexican Baked Eggs
Do you ever go out for weekend brunches and order those delicious “baked egg” dishes that come in a little cast iron skillet bubbling away in a savory sauce and gooey with cheese? Yeah, I’m salivating just thinking about it. I wanted to re-create that at home, but without all the oil and general fat. …
