Goan coconut egg curry
Egg curry is not a dish I particular loved eating as a kid mainly because I was not too fond of eggs. Over the years though I began to love eggs and now I even enjoy runny yolks. Different regions of India have their own versions of egg curry. This Goan coconut egg curry recipe is from a state in India within the coastal region called Goa. This curry is made with coconut milk, curry leaves, lime juice, potatoes, peas, hard boiled eggs and spices. The addition of potatoes and peas makes it a ...
Chinese egg drop soup
This thanksgiving I really overindulged and when I returned home I needed to detox. I have been sticking to making super simple meals consisting of big bowls of soup. I make a lot of different types of soups, but lately my go-to has been this Chinese egg drop soup. Egg drop soup is one of my all-time favorite soups to eat at Chinese restaurants. It’s a soup that I also love making at home along with my sweet corn soup. Chinese egg drop soup is easy to whip up, healthy, and light. This ...
Spinach and swiss chard green soup
Green soup probably doesn’t sound the most appetizing, but trust me when I tell you, this soup is surprisingly delicious, comforting, and not to mention, super nutritious. I crave it all the time. Here in Dallas, it’s been gloomy and raining the past few days. It’s finally beginning to feel like autumn is here. Which means it’s time for oversized sweaters, cozy blankets, holiday seasons, and comforting food. Though I enjoy cooler weather, it makes me crave comfort foods that are not ...
The ultimate sweet & savory grilled cheese
Last week, I made this peach chutney using the scrumptious end of summer peaches. If you haven’t checked out that recipe yet, here it is again. It’s a combination of sweet, savory, spicy, and tangy flavors that your taste buds will love. My favorite way of eating it has been to spread it on a seeded cracker topped with a bit of cheese. Its utterly delightful, but eventually I ran out of crackers. Normal humans would’ve gotten bored and moved on to something else, but not me. When I love ...
Indo Chinese sweet corn soup with chili vinegar
My husband and I are opposites in many ways, especially when it comes to our food preferences. I adore vegetables while he absolutely despises them, he loves things on the sweeter side and I’m more of a savory gal, you get the drift.The one thing we both mutually love though is soup, specifically sweet corn soup. We eat soup throughout the year: during breezy spring time, sultry summer heat, crisp fall, and especially chilly winter. Just call us the soup connoisseurs, we adore it. It is ...
Healthy Cauliflower soup with toasted pumpkin seeds
Let’s talk about Cauliflower and why we all should include it in our diet. First of all, it’s packed full of nutrients such as vitamin A and K and it’s full of fiber. A great thing for me because I always forget to take my vitamins. Also, it is an extremely versatile vegetable to cook with and it has the ability to take on any flavor you introduce to it. Another cool thing about cauliflower is that it naturally has pectin in it, which means when you blend it up it turns out to be really creamy. ...
