Spinach is one of my favorite greens to eat, it always has been since I was a kid. My husband absolutely despises spinach and he finds me to be really strange for loving it. I love spinach in my salads, I also enjoy sautéing it with garlic and olive oil, or cooking it with Indian cheese. My other absolute favorite but slightly indulgent way of consuming this healthy green is in a quiche. The temperatures have dropped in Dallas these last couple of weeks, so I turned my daily craving for ...

Goan coconut egg curry
Egg curry is not a dish I particular loved eating as a kid mainly because I was not too fond of eggs. Over the years though I began to love eggs and now I even enjoy runny yolks. Different regions of India have their own versions of egg curry. This Goan coconut egg curry recipe is from a state in India within the coastal region called Goa. This curry is made with coconut milk, curry leaves, lime juice, potatoes, peas, hard boiled eggs and spices. The addition of potatoes and peas makes it a ...
Chinese egg drop soup
This thanksgiving I really overindulged and when I returned home I needed to detox. I have been sticking to making super simple meals consisting of big bowls of soup. I make a lot of different types of soups, but lately my go-to has been this Chinese egg drop soup. Egg drop soup is one of my all-time favorite soups to eat at Chinese restaurants. It’s a soup that I also love making at home along with my sweet corn soup. Chinese egg drop soup is easy to whip up, healthy, and light. This ...
Eggs poached in fiery tomato sauce (eggs in purgatory)
Weekends are all about recuperating and de-stressing from the hectic week. The best way I know how to do that is by sleeping in, lounging, and brunching. I absolutely adore weekend brunching; since you’re combining breakfast and lunch, you have the perfect excuse to not only eat more food, but also more varieties of foods. I make it a point to brunch out at least every other weekend. First, I take my time scouting places for the best brunch spot, I then check their menu online and call to ...
Smashed beans on toast with poached egg
Does anyone feel like the whole trend of avocado toast is a little overdone? No? Okay great neither do I, but let’s be real here for a second it’s getting a little ridiculous. I recently came across an article on the web called “Millionaire to Millennials: Stop Buying Avocado Toast If You Want to Buy a Home”. In this article, an Australian businessman basically states that millennials can't afford to purchase a home because our money is being wasted on $20 avocado toast. I think the man is ...
Soft scrambled eggs with green onion & chili
Scrambled eggs are usually served up plain with a bit of salt and pepper, delicious but boring. I like to kick up the flavor of usual favorites from time to time. I love plain scrambled eggs if cooked correctly, but sometimes it is nice to jazz things up. Also, I have mentioned this in my delicious veggie frittata post that my husband loves eggs; so, I cook them a lot and I am always coming up with new ways to make eggs delicious. I was recently in one of those jazzy moods. Simply ...
Veggie filled frittata
My husband loves eggs. Eggs could be served for breakfast, lunch, or dinner and it is not an issue. It is embarrassing to tell people how many cartons of eggs we go through in a week. A more economical thing for us to do would be to get some chickens. But not sure how our dog would feel about having chickens in her backyard and we would require a lot of chickens to keep up with our demand. The husband is not too fond of vegetables. So, my challenge when cooking is how to ...
