If you need an easy chip and veggie dip, look no further. This homemade green onion dip recipe is as easy to make as the chip dip made with a French onion soup packet but has much more flavor. Yes, you can buy chip dips at the store, but I haven’t found one that is as fresh-tasting and delicious. Besides, why buy one with all the added ingredients when you can make a delicious dip in just 10 minutes and use ingredients you probably already have on hand?...

Many of us eat our bowl of yogurt with honey, so why not as a frozen treat on a hot summer morning? Yogurt popsicles can be a healthy dessert, but I also love them as a high-protein snack throughout the day. The great thing about making healthy snacks from scratch–whether it’s Chocolate Date Bars, Olive Oil Granola, or Homemade Popsicles–is they do not contain artificial flavoring, syrups, thickeners, or dyes....

One of the first things I tell people about the Mediterranean Diet is that we love our salads—even for breakfast! We’re all about adding more fresh seasonal fruits and vegetables to daily life, and making texture and flavor-rich salads you actually want to eat. But the last thing you want is to drown a beautiful fresh salad in a store-bought dressing, which are often made with low-quality oils, added sugar, and preservatives....

But my favourite by far?...

Make perfect dough using this electric mixer in just 5 minutes and make soft roti’s every time! I hate to knead dough by hand…period! Once the dough is ready, I am happy to make any number of Indian breads such as roti’s, paratha’s, poori’s or even pizza’s. Making dough can get messy and sometimes sticky, the dough gets in your nails and then it takes time to clean hands. Once I discovered the kitchenaid stand mixer to make dough, there was no looking back....

Chole with bhatura or naan was a favorite weekend meal growing up. This restaurant style Chana Masala is such a delicious and healthy dish. Chickpeas take very long to cook, hence they are perfect for pressure cooking. Usually chole is pressure cooked separately and then mixed in the onion-tomato gravy. However to make this a true one-pot one-shot recipe, I first made the onion-tomato gravy in the pot and then added soaked chickpeas and cooked them along with the gravy....

Oct 02, 2017, Updated May 23, 2023 I think my favourite part of turkey dinner is leftovers. I use every last inch of the bird, absolutely nothing gets wasted chez moi. The first day is a repeat of the whole dinner – mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, et al. On the second day, I start getting creative, making something different altogether, like Turkey Pot Pie or my mom’s Turkey Chow Mein (which has nothing Asian about it other than the noodles)....

Lentils are an essential ingredient in my Mediterranean pantry. They are hearty, satisfying, and loaded with good-for-you nutrition–from plant-based protein, to iron, fiber, antioxidants and more! But, aside from the fact that they are a food powerhouse, lentils are super easy to use. They don’t require a whole lot of planning or soaking overnight, and they cook pretty quickly. You can catch me reaching for a bag of lentils any night of the week to make a warm-your-belly vegan lentil soup, or my favorite lentils and rice dish Mujadara, or go for something a bit brighter with our Lentil Salad With Roasted Eggplant And Pomegranate Dressing....
