Avocado and Artichoke Pasta Salad

August 4, 2014

I love making lists. I make lists when I go shopping. I make to-do lists of things I have to do. I make a list of my working schedule when I have orders or when it is a busy period. Eg: Eid. I make a weekly list for the dinners that I cook. I am a list-maniac. Colornote is officially my best friend. Despite sounding…

Easy Hummus Recipe

July 7, 2014

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…

Southwestern Quinoa Stuffed Peppers

June 9, 2014

Did you all have a good weekend? I know I am always jabbering about my weekends, but not this time round I guess. We have a bunch of sick people in the house. It seems our anti bodies decided to weaken up, all at the same time. As I type this, they are recovering though. Amin to that. So it's Monday!…

Corn and Avocado Salsa

May 26, 2014

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…

Delicious Skinny Chicken Stir Fry and Corn Salad

May 20, 2014

THIS IS A MUST TRY. THIS IS A MUST TRY. THIS IS A MUST TRY. Fullstop. I am confused. Confusion number one: I do not know as to what I should call this corny thing. I thought corn salsa would be a good idea, but then the instincts are saying, “does it even resemble a salsa?” I mean, where is the cilantro, onions etc? Salsa…

Slow Roasted Tomatoes

April 24, 2014

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…

This Simple Cream of Mushroom Soup is delicious, intensely earthy flavors and comforting.

Avocado and Fresh Mozzarella Salad

June 22, 2013

I love salads. Love is an understatement because I LOVEEEEEEEEE salads. If there is 1 food that can turn me into a vegetarian, then it has to be a good avocado and fresh mozzarella salad. I don't just eat any salads though. I can never understand as to how people would toss some extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) on some leaves and…

Marinated Cherry Tomatoes

May 1, 2013

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…
