Yogurt Marinated Grilled Chicken with Basmati Rice

Avocado Smoothie
Avocado is a berry!! Yeah, really!! So if you are skeptical about a green smoothie, just embrace it like you would a berry smoothie. Just like everyone else, I too take part in the Avocado craze. I love avocado as breakfast (on toast), lunch (in my sandwich), dinner (in my salad), as well as a
Basmati Rice with Raisins (Pulao)
The perfect Basmati Rice…. now that could be a little “tricky”. The difference between “okay” and “perfection” is that perfectly cooked Basmati Rice must be FLUFFY. It should also be fragrant, a little sweet, with a ton of flavors.
Mango Lassi (Smoothie)
Anyone that knows Indian food, knows about Mango Lassi. This yogurt based drink/smoothie is one of the most popular menu items in the West. But little does anyone know that it’s one of the easiest thing to make. I love this for breakfast or a afternoon treat on a hot summer day. It’s healthy and

Trust me… your summer party will stand out for all the right reasons. Don’t get me wrong, I love a classic all beef slider, but by the 4th bbq of the summer…. #IJustCan’t !!

Beef Bourguignon
Beef and red wine makes a great pair. Beef IN red wine?….. now that’s a perfect match. Beef bourguignon is one of the best beef dishes EVER! What’s even better is that it tastes better the second and/or third day. I’ve made this stew and froze it in batches for up to 2 weeks. It’s perfect to make for

As a full time employee, who loves home cooked meals, I am always looking for recipes that are quick and easy…and healthy… AND delicious! I kid you not, this is one of the easiest and quickest recipes EVER. And might I add, it’s super healthy too 🙂
Jalapeño Lime Hummus
Hummus has always been my go to appetizer for parties. It is the easiest thing to make, pretty much throw everything in a food processor and…. BOOM! It’s also a great thing to bring to pot lucks, because there isn’t anyone that DOESN’T like hummus…. right?
