Honey and Dates

We are celebrating Thanksgiving today. Check out our story on IG and see how we prepped and made our bird from start to finish!

Sprouted grain toast with avocados, arugula, salt, pepper, crushed pepper, balsamic reduction and a side of mushrooms 😋

Jummah Mubarak! And happy lunching 😋

Happy Pie Season! This drool-worthy Pecan Coconut Chocolate (PeCoCho) Pie is aaaaamazingg! Always a hit when we make it for Thanksgiving! Find the link to recipe under our profile!

Sometimes self care means taking a break from to-do’s and making yourself a nice second breakfast, and then serving it to yourself in bed while catching up with friends 😌

Maash Ki Daal (Urad) recipe now up on blog!

Kids did’t want leftover Alu Bhujia (neither did I 🤭), so I threw this charcuterie board together in about 5 minutes! We all devoured it, alhamdulillah 🙂

Wash and cut up fresh fruits and veggies over the weekend, and store them in air tight containers.

I’m trying not to keep too much processed junk food in my house because I realized that’s what me and my kids normally grabbed for snacks. So now when we get the munchies we go to the fridge instead and eat something healthy.

This past weekend I washed and cut up strawberries, cucumbers, pomegranate, bell peppers, and grapes. For school snacks I always give either a fruit or vegetable, so this has also made packing their lunchboxes a breeze!

My younger 2 will eat most veggies without a prob, but my oldest hates them. But she absolutely loves hummus, and Costco sells little organic hummus containers. So she’ll usually dip her cucumbers, bell peppers, and other veggies in hummus to cover up the taste 🙂

My take on a power bowl - these are so easy to make because you can put in whatever healthy stuff you like! And the protein from the beans and kababs makes it so filling!

Power Bowl Salad With Kababs I threw this recipe together because I’m trying to eat healthier, and I’m sick of spending close to $20 on a teeny tiny bowl of healthy veggies. Plus, I don’t even order it with …
