I’m going out on a limb and calling this the best cajun shrimp recipe, all thanks to our homemade cajun seasoning. Of course, you can use store-bought seasoning in this recipe, but I highly recommend our homemade blend for the best cajun butter sauce coating your shrimp. This easy shrimp recipe takes less than 10 minutes to prepare thanks to our easy cajun butter. Serve with rice, fill tacos, or even transform this into cajun shrimp pasta (tips are below)....
I’m so excited to share this chicken broccoli stir fry recipe with you! We’ve been making it a lot lately. The chicken turns out perfectly tender, the broccoli cooks crisp-tender, and the sauce is so good! We use our ginger stir-fry sauce for this chicken stir-fry. It’s loaded with fresh garlic and ginger, and the flavor absolutely knocks the socks off of anything you can buy at the store. I also use it when making this veggie stir fry....
Now that it’s nearly summer, I’ve been making more and more things with less and less ingredients. Lately, I’ve been in love with this juicy little blackberry bite – it’s simple, sweet & bright, with an unexpected savory note from the thyme leaves. These would be beautiful (not to mention ridiculously easy to assemble) for any last minute cocktail party. The only thing missing here: a patio & a few glasses of prosecco....

Savory breakfast people, these egg muffins are for you! Fluffy, flavorful, and studded with veggies and cheese, they’re essentially mini frittatas that you bake in a muffin pan. I love them because they’re a) adorable, b) delicious, and c) perfect for meal prep! If you feel like your make-ahead breakfast rotation leans too far to the sweet side (with overnight oats, breakfast cookies, granola bars, etc.), then you’ll love having these egg muffins in the mix....
When the weather warms up in the spring, there’s nothing I crave more than this spring salad. Light, bright, and packed with spring’s best produce, it’s a perfect example of why eating seasonally is so exciting. This spring salad recipe is almost entirely veggies, but because each one is at its snappiest, sweetest, or softest right now, you don’t have to do much to turn them into a tasty dish....
This balsamic Brussels sprouts recipe is an updated spin on one of our first-ever blog posts. In that recipe, I roasted the sprouts with a combination of balsamic vinegar and maple syrup. As a result, they became sweet and caramelized, with a great tang from the balsamic vinegar. This balsamic Brussels sprouts recipe starts in the same way, except that I roast the sprouts with onions. Then, when the veggies come out of the oven, I toss them with nutty farro to make a more substantial side dish....
It’s good to be home. After a busy (and very social) week at Alt Summit, it was nice to come home and spend some quiet time over the stove. Unlike many of the recipes I make here, this one is an old friend. It’s my take on Espinacas con Garbanzos… and has been a favorite ever since our first trip to Barcelona. But the real thing it has going for it is that it’s largely a pantry meal....
The husband loves soya chunks. After paneer and mushrooms, this is probably his next favourite thing. Although I used to dislike the bland taste of soya chunks when I was younger, I have acquired a taste for it now. So I am always on the look out for new soy chunks recipes even though I tend to stick with my tried and tested soya chunks masala recipe most of the time....
I love cauliflower, especially when roasted until golden brown and crisp. That’s why I absolutely love these roasted cauliflower steaks! My roasting method guarantees deeply golden brown cauliflower. Then, you’ll serve the steaks with my easy chimichurri sauce made with fresh garlic and parsley. This sauce is super popular with grilled and roasted meats, but trust me, it’s just as incredible with these roasted cauliflower steaks! Key Ingredients Cauliflower: I buy whole heads of cauliflower and usually get 2 to 3 thick steaks from each....
This post is in partnership with Jewel-Osco®. Happy September! Fall may not officially start until the 22nd, but I’m already excited for warming soups, comforting pastas, and cozy baked goods like these cinnamon apple scones. These cute little treats are everything I crave on a crisp fall morning. They’re lightly sweet, moist, and warmly spiced, with a delicious apple-y flavor that pairs perfectly with a steaming cup of coffee or tea....
This post is sponsored by Blue Diamond Almond Breeze almondmilk. Happy first week of spring! With summer on the horizon, at least in my still-Austin-based mindset, I really want to be making lighter and brighter food. But then I’m reminded that it still snowed here last week. Sooooo… a creamy pasta bake it is! This veggie-ful dish is hearty yet cheese-less – it won’t weigh you down, but it will fill you up!...
We’ve been making this soup for ages. In fact, we love it so much that we shared it a second time on Inspired Taste with updated photos (including step shots). If you want to take a peek, click here for the Quick and Easy Creamy Vegetable Soup. We truly love this soup. It’s healthy and so simple to make. Cut vegetables into similar sizes and cook them in a small amount of olive oil or butter....
When it comes to smoothies, simple is best. I can’t keep up with lots of extra ingredients, and if I am going to make something daily, I need it to be quick with ingredients I already have on hand. This green smoothie is perfect! Inspired by our popular banana smoothie, you can make this easy green smoothie in 5 minutes or less! It’s easy, healthy, and delicious. For more super simple smoothie recipes, see our blueberry smoothie and strawberry smoothie....
Whenever I make this vegetarian chili recipe, I make a double batch because it is the perfect meal to have stored in the freezer for another day! I love all the veggies, and the quinoa and beans keep this super hearty and satisfying. For more vegetarian recipes like this one, see our chipotle bean chili, black bean soup, or these tasty sweet potato tacos with black beans. Key Ingredients Veggies: This chili recipe contains over 5 cups of veggies....
Traditional fettuccine Alfredo contains 5 basic ingredients: pasta, butter, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. If you’ve been reading the blog for a while, you’ve probably guessed that this fettuccine Alfredo recipe isn’t totally traditional. You’re right! See, I love creamy pasta, but when I order it at restaurants, it’s almost always too rich for me to enjoy for more than a few bites. Earlier this winter, I was craving comfort food, and I got the idea to make a fettuccine Alfredo recipe that would let me have my cake and eat it too....
In Kerala, a non-vegetarian home usually has some form of fish at the table every single day. The fish is bought fresh from a passing man/woman with a basket of fish over his or her shoulder. I am sure I have mentioned him before but our fish man was called English Mathukkutty. He only spoke in English (which, as you may know, is not common in day to day Kerala life) and would describe his fish as still “jumping” and “shivering” because they are so fresh and just out of the water....
Lovely riot of colours at the entrance. This is the Robinson’s at Raffles City Mall. Who doesn’t love Le Creuset. These were tiny, ramekin-sized ones. I bought a few to gift people because I suddenly felt guilty for being a selfish shopper Oh yes, I bought that black bowl down there. Gorgeous textured ceramic table-ware from Japan.
Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and the sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg, then stir in the ginger, water and molasses/brown sugar. Gradually stir the sifted ingredients into the brown sugar mixture. Shape dough into walnut sized balls, and roll them in the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar. Place the cookies 2 inches apart onto an ungreased cookie sheet, and flatten slightly....
