Look Who’s Here…
» ‎ Tasty Palettes

This is Addie, our newest family member. Its been 8 weeks since we welcomed her into our family. And what an eventful few weeks they have been. When they say you don’t get any sleep with a new baby, they are not kidding. You don’t get any sleep at all. But her blank-newborn-stares and sleep-grins make those sleepless nights well worth it. And, now that she recognizes her mama, I know its only

Changing Times…
» ‎ Tasty Palettes

These past few months have been quite an escapade for me. Exciting, tiresome, anticipative and even nervous. With the arrival of fall, I am not only looking forward to cooler temperatures and a pleasanter weather; but memories that are going to last a lifetime. Recently, this blog is experiencing a slow down, and this may continue for some more time. Because, in a few weeks time, my hands are

Mixed Sprouts Burger
» ‎ Tasty Palettes

Just as there are endless possibilities for making parathas (Indian stuffed flatbread), there are infinite ways one could make vegetarian burgers, while still keeping them unique, nutritious and tasty. I never get tired of trying new kinds of burgers. With simple ingredients on hand, its easy to put together one. Like I did with leftover sprouts.Packed with a mighty nutritious punch, these

Dark Chocolate Cups With Raspberries
» ‎ Tasty Palettes

House shifting is a mammoth task. I speak from experience here. There is so much to be done before, during and after a move. If you are an organizing junkie like me, you will have more things on your plate. Its been a couple of weeks, and there are still boxes and stuff lying around the house. We both were exhausted thoroughly. Adding to our misery is the triple digit temperature and excessive

Quinoa And Summer Fruit Salad
» ‎ Tasty Palettes

Summer in the blazing hot desert. Do I even have to elucidate anymore? Its been 110F+ for the past 10 days. We are now like vampires; the curtains are always shut to block day light and we go out only after the sun goes down. Yesterday, I didn’t even want to set foot in the kitchen. So, with ingredients on hand, I tossed a salad that was quick, easy, and refreshing.Succulent seasonal fruits,

Pavakkai Sadam – Spiced Bittergourd Rice
» ‎ Tasty Palettes

There are few standard bittergourd recipes that we enjoy year round. Pitlai is a family favourite, followed by oven baked chips. This time G asked for something different. ‘Why don’t you just do a sauté or a simple curry?’, he asked. Very well. The recipe he was mentioning was an old one that my mom makes often. The gourd is cooked and lightly seasoned with mustard seeds, urad dal and chana

Vegetarian Phyllo Pizza
» ‎ Tasty Palettes

A cook can never have too many cookbooks. My bookcase somehow seem to grow and have room for good cookbooks. Vegetarian Meals Good Housekeeping Favorite Recipes is one such cookbook. It is filled with recipes that are quick, easy and fun. A good find, considering that I picked this book in a rush without flipping even a single page, from my local library.Back at home, when I had the time to

Getting Back…
» ‎ Tasty Palettes

Caught in the whirlwind called life, with all its glorious twists and turns, I had kept myself from blogging longer than anticipated. An impending house shift in a month’s time is not helping either. To say that I didn’t enjoy this time off would be a lie. Other interests, both old and new, took precedence, keeping me occupied. But, last week, when I was packing my blog props in the moving boxes,

Tasty Palettes Turns Two
» ‎ Tasty Palettes

I have been MIA for the past two weeks. But today is a special day and I cannot resist a peek into this web space that has become my virtual kitchen. My blog turns two today. Two years back, I wouldn’t have believed that this blog would become an integral part of my life. But, it is today.There are so many people I am thankful for, G being the first and foremost. He has always been the gentle
