I’ve made alfredo before, but this, this may be my new favorite. What sets it apart? Garlic and white wine, which are infused into a classic white sauce paired with al dente pasta and roasted Brussels Sprouts. Now we’re talking. This recipe requires 30 minutes and 10 ingredients to make. While the sauce is bubbling away and pasta is cooking to perfection, Brussels Sprouts are roasting until golden brown and slightly crispy on the outside....
Origins of Mac ‘n’ Cheese Mac ‘n’ cheese is the ultimate comfort food! But where did it come from? It’s believed that the earliest written recipe for a dish resembling mac ‘n’ cheese comes from a 14th century cookbook. The dish (named de lasanis) was made with squares of pasta layered with cheese. But maybe that’s not what you picture when you hear mac ‘n’ cheese? The dish has been modified in many ways over time!...
❤️About This Recipe No juicer required: Yes, this juice is made using a blender. Watermelon has high water content so you get a juice consistency without adding any water in a blender.

Naturally sweet: There is no sugar or other sweeteners added because watermelon itself is a super sweet fruit. Taste & Flavor: This is super sweet with a hint of tanginess from lemon juice and chatpata taste from a few spices....
If I haven’t had it in two days, I get something like a twitch. I need a dark, leafy greens fix STAT. Most mornings, I have a green smoothie loaded with kale and spinach. And if I’m feeling especially healthy, I whip up a Roasted Sweet Potato Chickpea Kale Salad for lunch or dinner. Oh, and Cheesy Kale Chips – they usually call my name around 3 p.m. This is not me bragging about my healthy diet....
But one bite in and I think you’ll be singing a different tune. Nay, even thanking me! Man, so glad we worked through this, guys. What do you say? Let’s make whoopie pie s’mores! Do you know what a whoopie pie is? If not, go study up. Part of the lure of s’mores is the crunchy graham crackers (for that, try these S’mores Bars). But what if the chocolate bar was the slightly “crunchy” part, and the crackers were replaced with soft and tender chocolate cake?...
My most recent mango obsession is chutney. My inspired version includes plenty of spice balanced with natural sweetness and acidity, is made in 1 pot with basic ingredients, and pairs perfectly with SO many Indian-inspired dishes! Let me show you how. What is Chutney? Chutney is a spicy, flavorful condiment originating in India. It’s known for being full of micronutrients and aiding digestion. It can be made from a variety of fruits and vegetables and has since spread to many countries and taken on different forms (source)....
The gravy version: unlike other recipes (that you find on the internet), this aloo palak is North Indian style where vibrant green spinach gravy is made and then cooked potatoes are added. When it says Dhaba style aloo palak, they add deep-fried potatoes to the gravy. To cut down the calories and to make it healthy, I boiled the potatoes in instant pot (pressure cooker) and then pan-fried them with little oil to get the crisp edges (just like fried potatoes have)....
How to Make Caffeine-Free “Matcha” The secret is moringa powder! Known as the “miracle tree,” moringa is poised to be the latest trendy superfood.

One glance or whiff of this vibrant green, grassy herb and we immediately thought of our beloved morning matcha latte, but without the caffeine and with arguably even more health benefits (more on that later)....
What is Chana Saag? Chana means chickpeas. You’ll find many chickpeas recipes e.g. instant pot chana masala, chole, chana chaat, chickpea tikka masala, chana aloo, etc. Saag is a generic term for leafy greens. So the saag can be made from any combination of leafy greens. Today I am using spinach and fenugreek leaves here to make a delicious chana saag recipe. Other saag recipes on the site are saag paneer and sarson ka saag....
The recipe starts with potatoes sliced into thin wedges. We love a heartier, thicker wedge “fry.” But if you’re into thinner fries, cut into more of a classic shape. To get the inside tender and not burn the exterior, start by steaming your potatoes. We adapted this method from our Oil-Free Roasted Vegetables recipe! It works like a charm and partially cooks the potatoes to not only speed the cooking time, but also ensure the insides are fluffy and tender....
In fact, one of my first dates with John was at a little Mediterranean cafe in Kansas. We ordered shawarma and fed each other bites between adoring glances. Yes, we were that couple. That was also the day I discovered John’s preference for small bites and my overwhelming preference for big bites. I felt like he was slighting me all night. Don’t worry – lesson learned, the relationship survived. Take note world (and husband): Give me a two-biter or things are gonna go down....

If you have, you know how difficult it is. Maybe at the ripe old age of 28 I’ve simply done it all (sarcastic eye roll). But in all honesty, I like the person I’m becoming each day. I like that I try to be intentional about my life and my work, and when John and I say we want to do something we actually try and do it. I like that we spend every new year’s eve talking about the people we are and the people we want to become....
This naturally sweetened, healthier dessert (hello, iron and calcium!) is one you’ll want to make again and again. Let’s get blending! We often get requests for CREAMY banana-free smoothies and shakes (not an easy feat!). But friends, today your wish is our command! This banana-free shake relies on coconut milk ice cubes and frozen cauliflower to create a shake that doesn’t skimp on creaminess! So next time you have a little coconut milk leftover after making a recipe (like dairy-free coffee creamer or crème brûlée), freeze the extra in an ice cube tray....
I always have curry leaves in my fridge and use it in my day to day cooking like dal, sabzi and kadhi.

We both just loved it. I have never imagined that this herb could made this delicious chutney....
