Vegan Raspberry and Coconut Smoothie

July 27, 2015

I have always wished that I am motivated enough to take out my smoothie blender everyday and make a delicious smoothie Mondays to --> Sundays. There have been times when I am so freaking lazy to whip up a smoothie that the berries I purchased would literally go from fresh to dead. And that is at least 5 bucks down…

I am that kinda person who would literally grab a bunch of purple carrots and artichokes when I see them at a supermarket as they are not easily available over here.

Grilled Salmon Kebabs

April 17, 2015

This is an overdue post, but I simply had to write one about this. Every time I catch a fellow blogger's recipe getting featured on Buzzfeed, I wonder as to what all one needs to do, to get a placing in the list of recipes being featured over there. Did they send a basket of freshly baked cookies to the editor?…

Do you eat your fruits or drink them? I roll both ways, but I definitely prefer to drink my fruits. The juicing ‘fad’ had begun right from the 90s. Yes, juicing and blending is gaining popularity almost everywhere. What is juicing/blending?

"Writer's block is a condition, primarily associated with writing, in which an author loses the ability to produce new work or experiences a creative slowdown" Yes, that is how Wikipedia would describe me right now.

Delicious Lemon Couscous

I made this gorgeous Harissa Meatball Stew last week ↓ and served it with this↓ It was DEE-LI-CIOUS and inserting a heart after this sentence would be very appropriate. ♥ Perhaps it is only me, but I personally feel that there is something classy about a plate of couscous.

I am back home after 4 days of spending time at my second brother's house. No more singing in the late nights and no more neighbors knocking on the door. No more spending the nights looking ogling at recipes on Pinterest and jotting in my memory as to what I would be cooking/baking the next time round. No, wait…ogling at Pinterest…

Delicious Con Chili

I am a supermarket freak. I look forward to my weekly visits to the supermarket and occasionally I would visit bigger supermarkets that sell a whole range of imported stuff. Somehow, I would always end up going to the vegetables and salads aisle first, every time. I simply enjoy being among different kinds of tomatoes, salad and herbs. Weird much? It's…

Cooks who are capable of creating healthier dishes that taste equally delicious always gain my respect. As the days get busier, cravings for delicious food takes over. Creamy soup and lasagna for lunch at work. Pizza takeaway for dinner. Creme brulee for dessert anyone? What's not to love about the food mentioned above, right? Minus the calories though. There is more to these…
