For the final week of November, I chose to do Kid’s Delight. The theme this month is Veggies sneaked in dishes for kids. This was one theme which I couldn’t finalise on the dishes until the nth day. Yesterday I went and got three vegetables, but didn’t know what to do. So today morning I […]
I make this for lunch every alternate day so that I don’t get bored of the cauliflower rice. I even add the roasted veggies to cauliflower rice to make it more interesting. Today I will share with you the easiest way of making this. You just need to slice up the veggies, add the spices […]
After four weeks of different categories, I am at the final week of Cooking Carnival for which I chose Frozen treats as the theme. I do make popsicles often. And my daughter loves them. Do check my Ice Cream page for more interesting recipes for ice creams. Before even deciding upon the frozen treats, I […]
For the alphabet B, it was so easy to choose. Beetroot is one of my favourite vegetables but used only in a handful of dishes. I wanted to explore more and saw this recipe in a Chettinad book I own. When I decided upon the cuisine for this BM, I took all the Tamil supplement […]

The fifth day has arrived and only 4 more days to go. For the fifth day of Navrathri I made beetroot halwa, Lemon rice for morning neivedhyam and White channa sundal with sesame spice paste for the evening. Yesterday as I visited my sister, I came home very tired and couldn’t make any sweet for […]
It is nearly a week since I posted in the blog. Last week was kind of hectic with Sruti falling ill. She recovered and I got ill. I am not in a bad shape today and suddenly I remembered the Daring Bakers Challenge. First I thought of skipping it but after half an hour of […]
I have already posted two beetroot rice recipes. This is the most favourite rice for my daughter. The colour of the rice and simple ingredients used makes it a perfect lunch box recipe. It is very easy to put together this rice and so during the early morning busy schedule, this can be a life saver. […]
