I made some Pakoras today, but saved half the batter to try and bake it instead of frying it to save calories and fat. It worked! They may not be quite as crisp, but they're still SO delicious!

This is how I make chai when I need something warm that makes me feel enveloped in comfort without the added calories of my former addiction: hot chocolate. It's spicier (in a warming way that is very soothing) and lighter in taste than any chai from a coffee shop. The method is also quite authentic. If you can, make sure to use fresh, whole cardamom pods, whole cloves, and freshly ground black pepper. You can also add a couple of drops of vanilla extract or use a very small amount of fresh ginger. The recipe is calculated with four teaspoons of sugar, but it is completely up to you.

This is a basic spinach recipe that can be modified with some chilis and paneer to make sag paneer. But it is yummy as a side dish as well...

This is my homemade guacamole recipe. I love it by itself, with a Mexican style entree or on a salad!
