Jump to Recipe

Hearty and healthy Morning Glory Muffins packed with goodness, it’s good enough for breakfast.

Every Valentine’s Day I try and bake something, it’s just my way to make someone feel special.

This year I decided to go healthy and bake Morning Glory Muffins. They aren’t your typical V-Day dessert, but they are healthy, packed with goodness, and perfect for breakfast.

These Morning Glory Muffins are made with whole wheat flour, they’re dairy-free, and made with just 2 tablespoons of coconut oil.

      I would chop an apple and cook it down on the stove, and essentially make applesauce with no added sugar. If you have an apple, please google how to make applesauce. Apple puree – the texture may be off.

      You can use some kind of baby food, like carrot baby food, preferably unsweetened. Else i would substitute a flavorless oil about 1/4 cup, but then it’s added fat. 🙂

      Sorry for the delay, Mila. Yes you can, however the texture won’t be as light using whole wheat flour. Try it, let me know. 🙂

PANEER TIKKA QUESADILLAS are mouthwatering! Here's PANEER TIKKA QUESADILLAS are mouthwatering! Here's an Indo-Fusion dish you will love! I made a delicious marinade for the paneer and sauteed it along with the veggies. Assemble your whole wheat quesadillas and cook until the cheese has melted. The best part about this dish is my "special taco sauce" which complements these quesadillas perfectly. ⁠

Happy Mother’s Day to all you moms who show up s Happy Mother’s Day to all you moms who show up selflessly every single day. Also, a happy mothers day to all of you who want to be moms. ❤️  This is the most challenging role of my life, but the journey is totally worth it. Krish has made me a stronger and happier person. He gives new meaning to my life.  And lastly, my kid couldn’t give me one nice picture of us in Hawaii… there’s either someone in the back or he’s making a face or he just wants to get away. He just can’t sit still for a minute… and with that a Happy Mother’s Day to me! 🥰

Vacationing with a kid has been a completely diffe Vacationing with a kid has been a completely different experience. While it’s nice to spend time as a family, dinners can get tough with a baby. Sanjiv and I enjoyed a romantic evening at House Without A Key in peace because Krish “thankfully” fell asleep (he was behind us I promise… swipe). It was so nice to converse with my better half over live music + cocktails, delicious food, and the BEST coconut cake (last pic). A memorable meal and evening! ❤️ #mylove

Aloha 🤙! Our first family trip! We made it to H Aloha 🤙! Our first family trip! We made it to Hawaii safe and sound, and Krish was pretty good on the plane. It’s my first time in Hawaii and I’m loving Waikiki… the beach, food, window shopping, and city life. I love being able to walk everywhere. It’s the perfect amount of action and relaxation for me. This is totally my kinda vacation 😎!  Krish has been loving all the people-watching… something he doesn’t do much of back home. He’s been flexible and has pretty much adjusted to our schedule. Thank you 🙏🏼 guys for all the food recommendations (Duke’s Hula Pie) and tips on traveling with a toddler. I can’t thank you all enough. ❤️ #myworld
