Saag paneer is a classic north Indian dish that is made up of fried paneer cheese and a creamy spinach sauce. You can find on just about any Indian restaurant menu, but it has way better flavor when you make it at home.
Part of my birthday involved a pan of slightly overzealous hot oil, a few unfortunately exposed areas of my body, and a kitchen floor that now feels like someone poured lube all over it.
All in the name of fried cheese.
Needless to say, it was worth it.
1. I’ve been eating this cake for like five days straight. It definitely gets better with age. (Like me. Ha.) (Recipe to come.)
2. If I made mac and cheese once a week for a year…would you still love me? And would I still fit into my skinny jeans? And do I even care? Hmm. Something to ponder.
This Mexican fiesta chopped salad is a party on a plate! Filled with nutritious and tasty goodies, like black beans, corn, avocado, tortilla strips, and CHEESE, you won’t even realize you’re eating something healthy!
This is what moderation looks like.
Because, cliche as it may be, that little voice inside your head telling you that if you’re going to eat the cheesiest of cheesy things for dinner, you should probably have a salad for lunch?
She’s right.
Oh. so. very. right.
Mac and cheese gets hot hot hot in this buffalo cheddar mac and cheese with garlic croutons and broccoli.
When MAC AND CHEESE MANIA WEEK just so happens to coincide with your birthday week?
Basically the definition of kismet.
The vibrant green in these mini muffins come solely from matcha powder, filling these green tea financiers with sweet herbal flavor.
Don’t run away screaming.
Turn risotto into an every night kind of meal with this roasted cauliflower, sage, and almond risotto.
I feel like I was a little bit late to cupcakes, never quite got whoopie pies, and still have kind of a love/apathy relationship with quinoa (love when I remember to pre-rinse it, apathy when I’m lazy and, well, don’t).
And now here we are in 2014 and apparently cauliflower is the new kale.
It’s a crazy world, this is. But I kinda like it.
