Mushroom-corn quesadilla ....

My kids fell in love with quesadillas the first time they had it. They love it with chicken stuffing and have never said no whenever offered. Taking advantage of their liking I started making different kinds of quesadillas... a lot of veggies stuffed versions. They love them a lot and enjoy them at home and also when packed for school

Quesadillas don't have to have just the perfect mexican style stuffing. Come up with your own and surprise your family. It's easy to make and pleases everyone so I love these once in a while for a simple change from our regular menu

Prepare your favorite filling with your choicest veggies/chicken and layer them on tortillas.  Top it with some salsa and cheese and heat them up on the griddle till the cheese is melted and the outside had a slight crunch to it. That's it ... you can serve a lovely meal in just no time

Quinoa dosa/adai ... a healthy breakfast option

Quinoa has bee around for a long time but has become more popular recently over these past few years. I have always wanted to include quinoa into our diet but could not until now. Quinoa, as we all know is high in protein. It is a type of food that has all the essential nine amino acids. Rich in fiber and loaded with nutritional value makes it essential to be included in one's diet. Google it up to know about the tons of benefits that it has. I was amazed by it when I first read about it. Once you get to know, you would love to add it to your diets too

I have just started introducing this seed into our diets. Was trying to figure out something simple that I would want to try. I wanted the kids to enjoy it without giving their usual excuses to avoid trying a new inclusion in the meal. So thinking of multiple options I ended up trying dosa/adai. My kids like dosa so thought I should try this recipe first. To my surprise, the kids loved it a lot and I got a chance to make it few more times after my first trial. Planning to try some more recipes with quinoa in the coming days

This recipe is pretty simple and indeed tasty. I hope everyone will like it

Blueberry muffins.... soft and moist on the inside and crumbly on the top


Muffins are always loved by everyone and I love it as it serves as a pick-n-go snack. At our home, we all have different likings to the kind of muffin that we love to have. I am a big fan of home-made muffins and so I would say I love all of them - all the flavours... my hubby loves the non-chocolatey ones, my elder one loves and prefers the chocolatey ones and my younger loves only plain vanilla or white-chocolate ones. When we have these many differences in taste preference there is no choice other than making all the flavours once in a while. These days I have loved making muffins with fresh berries. This is one among that. It turned out great and I am sure this recipe is keepsies

The lovely part is that it is very very simple to pull the recipe together. They are soft and moist on the inside and crumbly on the top. Loved it so much. It smelled so good when baking these mini cuties. They were so tempting that we could not wait for long before we started digging in. I tried it warm and they tasted perfect. Just the way I wanted it. Everyone loved it except for my little who did not want any berries inside a muffin ;) .... no worries I will be making him another batch tomorrow with no added stuff in the muffin :)

I am not sure where I got the recipe... of course on the internet though. I just had a screenshot of the recipe page on my phone without the website details... sorry about that. But whosever recipe it is... it is definitely a perfect hit
