As a huge fan of sauces, cilantro chutney tops our list for favorite Indian “sauce.” It is so delicious and versatile you can pair it with literally anything! Samosa, our Tandoori Kebabs, sandwiches/wraps, dhokla, and tikki are just some of the options. This chutney is super easy to make and will last in an airtight…

Buffalo Chicken Meatballs
This is a go to healthy lunch prep for me! I’ve been making it for years and have had plenty of time to perfect this recipe. It’s easy to make and I’ve been able to flex it to accommodate the wideeeeeeeeeee variety of diets I’ve followed (Paleo, Keto, Whole30 to name a few). You can…
Palak Paneer
If you’ve ever been to an Indian restaurant, chances are you’ve seen Palak Paneer on the menu (and have hopefully tried it)! Palak means spinach in Hindi and also happens to be my sister/co-blogger/besties name. Palak Paneer is a North Indian dish that is made of blanched spinach and a ricotta like cheese called paneer….
Chicken & Rice – Halal Guy’s Copycat
After our first visit to the Halal Guy’s chicken & rice cart in NYC we were hooked. It’s probably been a decade since our first visit but we remember it well. A warm summer night (more likely early morning TBH) waiting in line not knowing what to expect, and getting wafts of the aromatic rice…
Overnight Oats
I used to be so great about waking up early enough to make a nice hot breakfast of eggs, avocado toast and coffee before work. Unfortunately, those days are long gone! More often than not, I’m rushing out the door in the mornings and these overnight oats have become a staple in my house. They’re…
Handvo (Indian Spice Cake)
Growing up, weekend mornings consisted of an Indian breakfast, and handvo was always on the monthly rotation. As we would be waking up, the aroma of the handvo baking would fill our rooms and help us rush down the stairs to meet our parents who would have some chai waiting for us. Which as kids,…
Coconut Water Green Smoothie
Breakfast may be the most important meal of the day, but it doesn’t have to be time consuming. This is one of our favorite (and healthy) breakfasts that you can put together in less than 3 minutes. No more excuses for skipping breakfast! Serving size: 12 oz Ingredients: 10 oz coconut water 1/2 inch knob…
Grapefruit Rosemary Cocktails
This recipes combines two of our favorite things, vodka and grapefruit! It’s a light refreshing cocktail that we’d like to say is perfect for summer but to be honest we drink this all year around. You can whip up batches of this in advance of a party and be the hostess with the mostess. If…
Egg Bhurji
This is a fun twist on a classic Indian breakfast, replacing scrambled eggs with hard boiled eggs. While grabbing a post workout meal in India a few years back, we were lucky enough to stumble upon this dish. Needless to say, we devoured it and knew we had to recreate it once we were back…
