Being in the season and most loved fruit, I thought of making rice pudding (Kheer) and have it with Mangoes. Mangoes have such a unique flavor that they go perfectly in any dessert or pudding. Not only flavor but mangoes’ vibrant color also goes great with any Indian dessert. Rice pudding is usually made using milk. But to make it Vegan, you can make it with Coconut Milk which also helps in giving creamy texture....

I am a believer that many things become infinitely better when smothered in something fabulous. I mean, tortilla chips without a smothering of creamy queso? Pass. Vanilla ice cream without a smothering of velvety, hot fudge? Yawn! A freshly washed face without a smothering of luxurious night cream? I can feel myself breaking out already. A bed of pasta and chicken without a smothering of marinated roasted tomatoes, artichoke hearts, capers, zippy lemon, fresh basil, parmesan cheese, and a touch of cream?...

This is a colorful dish, so I add as many vegetables as I can to make it more vibrant. All vegetables go so great in the dish because of their creamy flavor.

Published 7/16/2023 • Updated 8/15/2024 When. in doubt, cook salmon in the air fryer. Our air fried salmon comes out perfectly cooked every time — I mean flakey goodness on the inside and crisped-up skin on the outside. Plus, if you have 15 minutes, you can make this protein-packed (48g!), healthy dinner. I love eating it on top of a garden salad or next to roasted broccoli. A quick rundown: Season your salmon filets with an easy mix of spices and a drizzle of olive oil and then cook it in the air fryer at 400ºF for 7-8 minutes....

A treasured IGE team member, Meagan, was in town from Florida last week and as a life long southerner she had a very specific goal for the trip: to see falling snow for the first time ever. AND IOWA DELIVERED! It’s funny because she arrived on a record-breaking day for warmth, then the next day we had a snow storm. Stay weird, Iowa. Anyway, she and I went outside to let the big, fat, flakes fall on us and pretend we were in a snow globe for a bit....

Published 8/18/2024 • Updated 9/11/2024 We’ve done the Perfect Peach Crisp, made a rockin’ Easy Apple Crisp, Sheet Pan Blueberry Crisp, etc., but what about a crisp with a trifecta of fruits?! Yes, we went there… and I haven’t heard the end of it from my husband. He thinks it’s his new favorite because of the variety of fruits and textures all mixed together, but I’ll let you be the judge of that....

A few weeks ago I made it a personal mission to go the entire summer without posting a single salad recipe. Could she do it? She could not.

My oldest’s very favorite food right now is tacos. If you ask him what he wants for dinner, 100% of the time he’ll tell you tacos. Everyone’s…a little sick of tacos though!…so I thought I’d switch things up with Taco Chili! I know – living on the edge – but the second thing my child will tell you he wants for dinner after tacos is soup or chili so this meal is a win-win at my house....

As a family of five, we didn’t go out to eat very often growing up. The bill racked up quickly, in large part due to my older brother who had a habit of ordering the most expensive thing on the menu. Steak and lobster for a 10 year old? Wasn’t above it. Sometimes if we were really lucky though, we’d head to HyVee for brunch after church on Sunday mornings....

Published 11/6/2023 • Updated 11/11/2024 Whipped cottage cheese mashed potatoes come out so fluffy and protein-packed all thanks to the special addition of whipped cottage cheese! Mashed potatoes are hands down my favorite Thanksgiving side and my mom always made them with sour cream. We took that same idea but whipped up some cottage cheese (literally) in place of the sour cream and the result was epic – smooth, creamy, and protein-packed!...
