Turmeric powder also known as “Haldi” in India has been used for centuries in India as a spice in cooking and also for medicinal purposes. I remember when I was younger and even now, every time I catch a cold or cough, my mum will say, “Drink this turmeric milk (hardar wadu dudh in…
Today, it is 2 degrees Celcius (mega cold) and for breakfast, I was craving something warm. Also, I’m very wary of the winter at the moment and the Omicron virus. I mean it just doesn’t seem to end, does it? In order to keep my immunity high, I normally consume ginger. I thought it…
As the months get colder, we turn to cooked oats to keep us full. Oatmeal is a delicious breakfast and it’s always nice to spice up breakfast oats with something fun and different. November reminds me of Christmas and as we approach this festive season, I feel like making my oats more and more “festivy”….
I love eating Yoghurt bowls with fruits, nuts and seeds. Period. This has got to be the healthiest snack out there.

What are pumpkin seeds? Pumpkin seeds are the flat green edible seeds of a pumpkin. You might say but pumpkin seeds are white? Yes, they have a white outer husk, and once it’s removed, we have a flat oval green pumpkin seed 🙂 Pumpkin seeds have many nutritional benefits. In some cultures, they are roasted…
Today, I felt like eating pesto pasta. Only problem was that I did not have pine nuts or basil leaves. What I really enjoy doing is substituting. My mom is an expert “substituter” when she doesn’t have certain ingredients and her food always turns out great. It got me thinking. I had spinach which I…
