Hi guys!
What'sup?
So I had this little poll on my instagram story about if you prefer healthy recipes and most of you said yes.  So I decided to go for a dressing/sauce. Since I usually go for a sandwich everyday. Mayonnaise is my least favorite because it's too heavy and too many calories. This dressing is extremely tasty and healthy. Plus it is fullfiling.

I'm using strained yogurt, you can use Greek yogurt or strain yours overnight or just while you're prepping in 10 minutes.  Strained version is thick and creamy, which spreads well in sandwiches.

INGREDIENTS:

1. 2/3rd of a cup of cold yogurt, strained or Greek yogurt.
2. 1-2 tbsp lemon juice. 
3. 1 tsp toasted, ground garlic. (I don't prefer the raw garlic)
4. Black olives. 
5. Very thinly chopped capsicum.  
6. 1/2 tsp mustard  sauce
7. 1/2 cucumber, peeled, grated,  strained.
8. Shredded chicken/optional.
9. Any other vegetable you have at hand that you like.  
10. Salt and pepper. (add kind of red pepper if you're into spicy stuff)
11. Chopped mint (optional) 

METHOD:

1. Mix all the ingredients and refrigerate or use already  registered ingredients. 
2. You can use this in your sandwich or omit the Vegetables and you it in wraps. 

Here's a sandwich I made using the dressing and some bologna slices, you can always replace that with an egg or lattice.

Hi guys!
I'm back with another chocolate  recipe since I have this large bag of dark chocolate for winters.
This recipe is thick,  rich, amazing and obviously for everyday!
So I had tried a salted caramel hot chocolate in a restaurant, a year ago and I always wanted to try it at home but I was always lazy to make salted caramel. Today I decided to make it finally, in clean pan I added a cup of sugar with 1/4th cup of water and let it cook on medium heat,  without mixing till it bubbled and turned dark. Then I added,  3 tbsp of cream and some butter and removed it off the heat.  Then mixed in some salt.

INGREDIENTS:

1. 1/4 th cup of salted caramel (l
2. f you don't have it you can make it at home or replace it with condensed milk for normal hot chocolate)
3. 2 cups of milk (If you want it too rich then use 1/2 cup of cream and 1.5 cups of milk) 
4. 1/4th cup of chopped dark chocolate. 
5. 1/2 tsp of cornflour.
6. Pinch of cinnamon power.
7. Drop of vanilla essence.
8. 2 tbsp coca powder.

METHOD:

1. In a pan, add your milk, cinnamon, Coca powder, chocolate, caramel, vanilla and mix will.  
2. Let it boil, then take out some of the hot chocolate and mix the cornflour as a thickening agent. Then add this to the rest of the hot chocolate. You can skin this step if you're  using cream.  
3. Then boil again and pour into your cup.  
4. Serve hot in a large mug! 

Hi guys!
What'sup? So today's recipe is basically a 2 serving recipe. You can make pretty jars and giveaway as gifts. Mine isn't that pretty. It's just an old peanut butter jar and my writing is awsome as you can see. The best part about this recipe is that you can make 2 different flavors in 2 different jars. I love orange flavored cheese cakes but sadly I had no orange juice or zest.
You can make the basic cream cheese, cream, condensed milk mixture and then add whatever flavor you prefer, the options are endless, lemon, nutella, strawberry, banana, caramel etc.

INGREDIENTS:

1. 150 grams of cream cheese. 
2. 1/2 a cup of sweetened condensed milk (for homemade one: add 1 cup milk and 1 cup sugar to a pan, let it cook on medium to low heat for 15-20 minutes until it is thick)
3. Cream- 50 grams
4. 1 tbsp Gelatin- optional
5. 2/3rd cup of melted dark chocolate chips or if you want other flavors add equal amount of nutella or strawberry puree, mango puree, concentrated orange juice with more cream etc.
6. 3-4 biscuits of your choice, crushed and mixed with a tbsp of melted butter. 
7. 2 drops of vanilla essence 
8. Pinch of salt
9. I don't use any more powdered sugar after condensed  milk but you can add after tasting if you feel the need. 

METHOD:

1. Take a clean jar, place the biscuit crumb mix to the bottom, press it. 
2. With the help of an electric hand mixer or egg beater or stand mixer mix all the ingredients until it is thick and fluffy. 
3. Add to 1 large jar or 2 small jars with the crumb layer already set.
4. Freeze for atleast 4-5 hours or over night without gelatin  before serving. 
5. Since the container is air tight you can eat some of it then store it back to the freezer. Just like an icecream.
