Instant Grilled Paneer Rolls/Wrap

Paneer (Cottage Cheese) is such a versatile protein as it can be used in so many recipes. Its quick, simple, creamy, everybody’s favorite and the easiest to put together!!

Most of the times it becomes challenging to give it different flavors. As a chef at home(as i like to call myself;) )  the demand is always to make something different which landed me to the idea for this recipe!!

Instant as the name suggest, paneer is marinated is spices and till the time you are done with the rest of your preparation, its done!!

Eggless Carrot CupCakes, wholewheat and no butter

What more can be more satisfying than indulging in your sweet craving without the guilt factor! My melt in mouth cupcakes are egg less, butter less, whole wheat with the goodness of carrot which gives it a different kind of sweetness and the spice give a natural warmth!

I was first introduced with these at a famous cookery show and wanted to try it out. The original recipe called for the basic cake ingredients but I wanted to make it a bit healthy so that I can treat myself with these goodies as often as i can. Having said this, I have these stocked up most of the times as it is easy to just mix it all together and bake. So enjoy this treat.

Pesto Elbow Macaroni

Pesto elbow macaroni is delicious and so cheesy.

One of the healthiest core ingredient is pesto which can be used in a variety of dishes. That lovely fragrance of fresh basil churned in with olive oil can bring life to any dish. Here I have used pesto to make elbow macaroni. Frankly any type of pasta works well with this sauce, easy to prepare and delicious to eat.
