Quinoa Patties w/ Shiitake Mushroom

Quinoa is such a super-food, and I realized that it goes with so many ingredients. You would notice that I’m trying to avoid carbohydrates as well as sugar as much as possible in most of my recipes. Then again you need a source of energy, and this one does it so well! It is such a great source of protein, fiber and various vitamins and minerals. Well you get the drift!!

This recipe can be again modified in so many ways. This is my go-to recipe when my refrigerator is almost empty and I have a few left over veggies and I can just add them along with quinoa to bake some patties. The side salads are just to add some greens to the meal. Gobble gobble people!! … More Quinoa Patties w/ Shiitake Mushroom

Zesty Lime Shrimp Salad

Did I tell you about my love for shrimps yet? No you say!! Well they are one of my favorite sea foods, and my parents would vouch for that. Originally I’m from the eastern coast of India, where fish is one of the staple food and the flavors are just mind-blowing. Whenever I would visit my parents, the first thing my dad knows that I would ask for is shrimps, and he will somehow manage to find some for me always. My grand parent’s house has a lake at the backyard, and whenever we visited, my grandpa would make sure to catch some fresh fishes and yes, that would include shrimps. He would clean and cook them himself and I can just go on and on with those stories, but I think you see the point here! Lol!

This is a very simple healthy quick salad specially because it has two of my favorite things – shrimps and avocados 🙂 Gobble gobble people!! … More Zesty Lime Shrimp Salad

Broccoli Pizza

A slice of pizza is one the easiest things to grab when we are hungry. So, why not try to make that quick bite a little healthy!! One of my friend’s mom used to make cauliflower pizzas while growing up, and we loved it so much that we decided to try it with broccoli. It turned out to be awesome! One thing to remember here would be that it won’t be as firm as your flour based pizzas, but it definitely was one of the tastiest pizzas I’ve ever had without feeling guilty about how unhealthy I am eating! So.. Gobble gobble people!! … More Broccoli Pizza
