Anyway, the Super Bowl is THIS SUNDAY (nailed it) and I’ve got 10 gluten free appetizer recipes to build your biggest and best game day spread yet!...
It is healthy & wholesome, and you can make it in advance. You can add different fruits like apple, strawberry, pear, etc., to experiment with the flavors. Blueberries are my favorite, and I use them in almost everything, so I thought to try Baked Oatmeal with blueberries, and it was a hit. Looking for other healthier breakfast recipes. Then do try Besan Puda (Savory Vegan Pancakes), Methi Thepla, Sweet Potato & Chickpeas Hash, Misal Pav, and Amritsari Kulche....
I’ve got a fun little side dish /salad option that’s not only outrageously healthy and fresh, but gluten-free, raw, and best of all, takes 10 minutes to make. It’s Cauliflower Couscous Salad!

Chimichurri Sauce is usually made with parley or a mix of Cilantro and parsley. But to make it extra flavorful, I have made it with just cilantro leaves. Being Indian, Cilantro is one of the most popular herbs that I use in cooking. So I thought why not make it just with Cilantro. it pairs perfectly with grilled veggies like cauliflower steaks, or homemade bread. I especially love it with smashed potatoes....

Much love! instead of, listen, you really need to get your crap out here or I’m going to go completely bananas....
