Skip to Recipe We are gearing towards September, and the days are getting shorter. Like all good things, summer is coming to an end and I am trying to savor the last few weeks before fall begins to loom. Ever since I tried these Thai-inspired Chicken Skewers, I have wanted to share the recipe on my blog, and finally, it is here! These Thai Chicken Satay Skewers are bursting with fresh, delicious, and summery flavors! Succulent, spicy marinated chicken pieces are loaded onto the skewers and grilled to perfection, and served alongside an addictive peanut sauce. Each bite of these grilled chicken skewers is like taking a bite of heaven! Though this recipe is perfect for outdoor summer BBQ parties or gatherings, it can also be devoured year-round even when it is not grilling season. Although the chicken skewers are flavorful all by themselves, they become even more delicious when dunked into the rich and creamy peanut s...

Skip to Recipe I am a big fan of chia seed puddings, and of late, I have been experimenting with new exciting flavors. Tiramisu is one of the most popular Italian desserts that everyone raves about, and I am no different. While the taste of the classic dessert is unbeatable, the Tiramisu Chia Pudding is a healthy take on the quintessential flavors. This aesthetic-looking breakfast is made with layers of chocolate, coffee, and vanilla chia pudding and topped with a generous sprinkle of cacao powder. All the different flavors blend well together resulting in sheer delight with every spoon. Creamy, light, and super easy to put together, it makes an incredibly delicious plant-based breakfast, a satisfying snack, or a guilt-free dessert. Why you will love this Pudding? This Vegan Tiramisu Pudding is: Vegan Gluten-Free Refined sugar-free Rich in protein, omega-3s, and fiber Tastes l...

The Salted Carmel Bliss Balls that I am sharing today fit the bill! Bite-size and healthy, these Salted Caramel Bliss Balls are the perfect make-ahead snack for anyone on the go! With only 5 ingredients, these are vegan, gluten-free, and refined sugar-free. Bliss balls, energy balls, date balls…whatever you choose to call them they are downright delicious and will give the store-bought ones a run for their money! Unlike other sugary treats that spike the blood sugar level and leave you feeling hungry afterward, these little power-packed bites are made with dates that will fuel your body with nutrients while satisfying your sweet tooth. Like my No Bake Chocolate Peanut Energy Balls , Healthy Peanut Butter Chocolate Fudge and Car...

Skip to Recipe While I am on vacation, I set myself loose and indulge in my fair share of ''not so healthy 'foods. But once I am back and the magic of the holiday has worn off, I try to get my eating habits back on track. At times, it gets pretty hard to delight in a big pile of greens while the mind is still thinking of mocktails, leading me to find interesting ways of including veggies in my meals. If you too are looking for creative ways of adding the stellar nutrition of greens into their daily diet without resorting to only salads, you have come to the right place. These Banana Spinach Pancakes are a healthy and delicious way to start off your mornings. Naturally sweetened and loaded with ingredients that are always available in your pantry , these healthy pancakes taste great and will impress even the pickiest eaters. These wonderfully vibrant green pancakes are dye-free, and get their natural color from a hea...

Skip to Recipe When it comes to appetizers, chicken wings are my absolute favorite. Whether you’re hosting a summer barbeque or staying home to watch the Superbowl, wings can really kick off the party and set the mood right away. Chicken Wings are oven-baked to crispy perfection, and then tossed in an addictive sweet and sticky honey garlic glaze! The sweetness from the honey and the kick from the garlic make these chicken wings finger-licking good! These oven-baked wings are healthier and taste almost indistinguishable from their deep-fried version. Plus, you don’t have to deal with all of the hassle and mess that comes along with deep frying. Much like my Baked Korean Chicken Wings , Buffalo Chicken Wings and Lemon Pepper Chicken Wings they're one of the first things to disappear off the table. How to Serve these Wings? Drizzle the honey garlic sauce over...
