It’s been ages I’ve posted about any of my “Brown Paper Bag” Lunches, mainly because they have been fairly repetitive. Lately I seem to rotate between only 1 or 2 lunches daily. Boring? Yep but it keeps me full, tastes delicious, and is fairly balanced…pretty much all I am looking for in lunch. This week’s …
When people ask me where “home” is, I really have no idea. Before living in Mumbai and London, I lived the first 14 years of my life in Lagos, Nigeria. Although I can’t imagine ever living there again, I probably spent some of the best years of my life there. The friends I made in …
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, grocery shopping is a completely different experience in Mumbai & London. For starters, the products available vary. There are some foods I still bring back when I travel: Some I’ve learned to live without: Some I try to recreate: If you’ve been reading my blog for …
Ever notice how the speed of each week tends to be: Monday…Tuesday….Wednesday…Thursday…FridaySaturdaySunday! Another weekend gone in the blink of an eye and another Monday yet upon us. As someone who has grown up always eating vegetarian on Mondays due to religious reasons, I’m loving the idea that the international campaign “Meatless Mondays” is rapidly growing …
There are some foods which instantly transcend me back to my childhood such as pesto. Not just pesto in any form though: spaghetti smothered in cream-based pesto. When I was growing up in Nigeria, one of my favorite restaurants was Il Sorisso. I actually wonder whether it is even still open. Anyways my standing order …
Ha bet that title got your attention! I’ve recently noticed that I tend to use the phrases “I love” and “it’s the best” excessively…to the point that my opinions may seem unreliable. My friend actually pointed out that the last 3 restaurants which I have gone to are apparently “my new favorite.” Well I promise …
…mind out the gutter peeps, I dunno what y’all you all were thinking but I was going more for: “chicks before pea” as in CHICKPEA…i.e. the theme of this post! Anyhow before this blog becomes any more R-rated, let’s move along swiftly! So remember a few weeks ago when I blogged about my horrendous experience …
After my lunch post yesterday, I was actually super surprised that I had requests for the bean dip recipe. As I mentioned, it was originally pinto bean chilli. The only reason I turned it into a dip is because of a lack of microwave (or stove) to warm up the leftovers. Funny how things work …
Why did the tomato turn red? Because it saw the salad dressing 😀 My name is Khushboo and I have a corny sense of humour! What? You don’t? So another thing about me: I like vegetables a lot, so much that I worry for my fellow dinners. Kidding!…kinda ;)! I can eat raw carrot sticks …
