"I got 99 problems but a meal ain't 1"
Self-Taught Vegan Chef :: Food Network Champion :: TV Host
Yesterday September 23rd, 2012 marks the 2nd year since I’ve started Chef Priyanka- already!! I feel old. But over these past 2 years I’ve generated more than 120 recipes- pretty crazy huh? I wish I had time to create more and cook more, but I make do with the time I have! So I would …
My family and I had planned on visiting Panama City, Panama this year. We were all really excited, as we had not been to Central America before. However, due to some last minute complications we ended up not going there.. and by last minute I mean literally at the airport right before our plane was …
I’m sure all of you guys- who have kept up with my blog and have read my ‘Who’s This Priyanka‘ page- know by now that I lived in Boston for 4 years. No, not just for shits n’ giggles, but I actually attended undergrad there- yes, Boston University. Me and my mommy at my Economics …
I’m sure you know by now that I have a huge sweet tooth and will always given in to something chocolatey. I was bored one day and was really in the mood for a strawberry shortcake, but I wanted chocolate as well. So what better way to combine chocolate and strawberries than in a cupcake?! …
Even though orzo is an Italian pasta, I feel like it doesn’t have to be cooked in a traditional Italian manner. Then again, nothing has to be cooked with rules or regulations (that’s why I love to cook!). When I think of orzo I think Italian, Moroccan and a bit Middle Eastern. So I basically …
Usually when its Winter time, I think of warm beverages, fireplaces and sweets that are on the comforting side. We’ve been making these yummy cranberry sweetheart scones for years at my house. They’re sweet, tart, buttery and so good with tea! I kinda feel a little British while eating these.. no but really I do. …
I haven’t really shared any recipe for salad with you, or what I like to refer to as ‘rabbit food,’ but I actually really like a good salad. If a salad is prepared properly and has the right combination of ingredients with the right amount of dressing, it can be really fulfilling. And that is …
First off I would like to say- Sorry for being so MIA! I’ve had an extremely hectic Christmas and New Year’s weekend, and I would rather NOT go into detail about it. However, right before the holiday weeks I did prepare an awesome dessert that I’m sure you guys will love. I LOVEEEE Starbucks Salted …
When I think of winter and snow, I think of snuggling up in my fleece pajamas and fuzzy socks and watching tv (and doing absolutely nothing else). But, ya gotta eat dinner, right? When I think of winter in terms of food, I think about all of the wintery vegetables- squash, pumpkin, cabbage, onion, potato, …
I feel like okra (or ladyfingers) is a really underrated vegetable. I also feel like okra is primarily used in the south (in gumbo, fried up, etc), but not so much in the northeast. I almost feel like people don’t really know what to do with okra. Okra is extremely versatile. There are SO many …
