Aloo Palak (Spinach & Potato Curry) is one of the most popular Indian dishes where spinach and potatoes are cooked together with spices. Naturally vegetarian and vegan, my easy homemade version of aloo palak uses minimal spices which makes it so comforting. Tastes best with flatbread like roti or paratha!
Potatoes are added to a lot of Indian curries and gravies. I think we have this habit of adding potatoes to anything and...

Do you guys believe in rebirths and journey of souls? I first came across this book – Many Lives Many Masters by Dr. Brian Weiss 15 years ago when I lost my sister.

It’s Thanksgiving week! Tell me what is on your menu? One thing I know for sure is that there’s going to be lots and lots of food. This weekend we went to Costco and I think we just chose a very wrong time to go there. We went there for regular grocery but oh my god, people were buying stuff like crazy. There were long queues at the checkout with the shopping carts literally overflowing. I can only imagine the amount...

I have been totally engrossed with family and hospital duties, so it’s...

One of my favorite dips – Baba Ganoush is middle eastern eggplant dip made with eggplant (of course!), tahini, garlic and lemon juice!
When you eat out mostly on weekends (like me!), you obviously try a lot of new stuff. I mean when you are eating out every Saturday and Sunday, you can’t be going to the same restaurants over and over again. Of course we do have our favorites and we go there often but we also regularly try new restaurants and cuisines. You might...

Easy Mango Avocado Salsa is one of my favorite summer salsa! It’s full of fresh flavors and really easy to put together.
It’s been so hot here last couple of days that we bought a portable AC! Yes I would have never thought that we would need an air conditioner here. But it has been hot and it was making it difficult for me to work in the kitchen. Now it feels so much better. I can stay near the gas or oven without sweating. This whole weekend we were running around getting things done around the house....

Refreshing Watermelon Jalapeño Limeade – a perfect summer drink with a touch of spice!
You guys already know how much my husband loves mangoes, like he is a mango fanatic and so obviously he’s very happy that the mango season is here.

Nothing like fresh, juicy watermelon straight out of the refrigerator on a warm day....
