If I were to think of my favorite ingredients (right on top of my head), it would look like this.
Artisan bread
Garlic
Avocado
Mushroom
Cheese
Tomato
Pasta
Olives
Chicken
Asparagus
Potatoes
Fresh herbs
Berries
If it wasn't for chicken, I would have become a vegetarian very easily. I do have a soft spot for vegetarian food somewhere there in my <3 (Read: Heart).
I mean look at all the food I love.

The past few days have been super busy. It started with my BCF (best cousin forever) birthday, followed by Eid preparations and then Eid itself. Now that everything is over, let’s talk potatoes.
When I saw this,
I knew that I had to give this recipe a try. These potatoes were screaming out loud at me. Yup, these potatoes talk.
If you have…
For the past 1 hour, I have been listening to "heart attack", "I love you like a long song" and "love story". Why am I susceptible to the music of teen girls? I blame this on my 14 years old niece. She has been continuously singing these kinda songs to her young-at-heart-aunt. If listening to Justin Bieber would make me…
It is already the ninth day of fast
And this is going ultrafast.
If a shooting star were to fly past,
I would have wished for Ramadan to last.
With my "original composition" above, it sure feels like the mojo is back!
Ramadan is moving at 100000000km/h. Not liking the pace really but loving this Easy Hummus Recipe though. In fact totally digging it. Hummus…
Hello Skinny People on the blog! Hope everyone had a fulfilling weekend. So how does it feel when someone calls you skinny? I think in the past, it would have been quite offensive but thanks to those darn sized zero models, being skinny is considered cool now. It's the "in" thing and basically fashionable. I am pretty sure that zero sized models…
I think the best thing that happened to me this weekend was my mother eating at least 15 of these Mini Taco Cups. Whenever my mother praises my food, I'm one proud girl, subconsciously.
You know you are a food blogger when the files in your hard disk looks something like this.
and you have to take 101 pictures of that damn…
I love oven-roasted tomatoes. They have incredibly intense flavors and when chopped up, they make a great condimento for pasta! Tomatoes somehow get quite intensified after roasting. I just love the intoxicating aroma that lingers around the kitchen while the tomatoes are roasting away with the garlic, herbs and olive oil. Yums!
I have tried roasting tomatoes using various approaches. Nigella's would…
Sighs! The blog was down for a good 12 hours. Hostgator said it was "due to an undocumented bug in firmware utilized in our vendor’s hardware." Okkay, whatever that meant. That must have been one hell of a bug because it brought down about 100,000 websites including mine. I was a wreck when that happened. I was moping around, missing…
Sometimes, you don't need to do much to certain ingredients as they just blend in harmoniously with other ingredients. In this case, I am referring to the combined flavors of tomatoes, olive oil and garlic; just like how you get gorgeous bruschetta with the 3 mentioned ingredients.
Recently I joined the Pinterest community and I have started pinning and pinning everything…
