Being from the southern part of India, we survive on rice. But occasionally we love to have variety. Well who doesn't like variety right? These pita pockets are one such variety that we like to have for quick fix dinners. And when the name is fancy, dish is easy to put together and moreover has great taste and is healthy; we do repeat it often for dinner. Esp. in the hot summer, every single bite on the veggies that goes into the pita bread is so refreshing . They are great to be served in parties, as guests can build their own pita pockets as per their taste. Just have variety of veggie/protein filling options to be served.
Go read how I build my pita pocket in the recipe section. There are some other options that you could try too to suit your taste buds. Try it at home and come back to let me know if you liked it.
Weekend mornings are about some hot breakfast served and all of us sitting down together to have some talk over breakfast. When compared to the weekdays, where there is no sitting down for breakfast, I overlook for weekends to come to have some family breakfast and also gives me an opportunity to try new things for breakfast :). This waffle comes together in just minutes and its another recipe to use up those overripe bananas yet not let the consumer know about the presence of overripe bananas in it :).
The little crunch of quinoa and a bite into some juicy blueberries is an additional bonus of these waffles which makes it a joy to have it for breakfast. We love the waffles that we get in Costco and so I got inspired to try this recipe and I must say that this recipe is just the alternative to those waffles. Try it and let me know if you like it.
With temperatures dropping, all I want to do is just snooze and snooze the alarm every 5 mins. I understand that it is not actually letting me rest as I would want to, because it will keep on interrupting me by ringing every other 5 mins. But still I keep doing it every single day. It is just so hard to pull your eyelids apart when you are resting under the cozy blanket. Anyways, winter mornings get better with a warm breakfast. I still recollect Poha to be a delicacy during winters. Because my mom would pluck some fresh coriander leaves to garnish the hot poha. But with the coriander leaves available year round now, I have the luxury to make it whenever I want to. Poha and some steaming chai- isn’t that just the best thing to start your day with .
I grew up eating poha as a tea time snack on cold and wintery evenings. I was not a great fan then. When I landed in pune for my job, every other day I would choose to get poha for breakfast from the canteen. They were not as good as my mom used to make and hence brought in the realization of the value of home made food.
There are somethings that just stays in your memory forever. Just like this curry being served to us when we would get back home from school. This was a quick fix mummy used to make during lent to feed us. I used to love it.
Not very long back, I asked mummy how she used to make it and she was like, that is something that she made up to prepare quickly and that could be served hot to us and of course it was meant to be eggs in another form, so that it would be easy to feed us.
