I have a qualm. If you’ve been following me for 2 or more years now, I’ve been going on and on about palm oil. I’m not going to go on about it now, as I’ve exhausted my words for it. And you should already now how detrimental it is to the environment, animals, and ecosystem. …

So far I’ve made candied Lime and Orange Peels: https://www.chefpriyanka.com/double-chocolate-brownies-with-fresh-candied-orange-peel/and have used them on desserts.

Do you ever have those nights (or days) when you’re just craving something decadent and indulgent, but don’t wanna put in the time to make something intense? Well that’s exactly the kinda night I was having recently. I was craving something chocolatey and chewy…that spells brownies to me! I found a box of Duncan Hines …
Got like 50 limes sitting around? No, you probably don’t. But luckily this recipe doesn’t require 50 limes. Over the weekend my mom, oldest sister , and I hosted a bridal shower for my middle sister!
