    We’ve entered the season of warm comfort food. Soups, Stews, roast meat, etc. And sometimes all that heavy food seems . . . well . . . heavy. 

    Homemade Veggie Pizza

    Just about everyone loves pizza, myself included. However, traditional restaurant pizza is generally made with refined (white) flour, and loaded with saturated fat and sodium – things that can quickly lead to weight gain and harm your health. To make pizza something I can feel good about eating regularly, I’ve found ways to make my own healthier versions. The key is using whole grains, less cheese and loading up on lots of healthy veggies and herbs. Also eating produce that’s in season helps you save money and also ensures you are getting a good variety of foods and nutrients.

    homemade-veggie-pizza3

    This pizza included some of my favorite veggies and herbs: carrots, red onion, broccoli, corn, green or red pepper, olives and fresh basil.  The ingredients only required about 20 minutes of prep time, starting with chopping the veggies and tossing them in a little olive oil for roasting.  Adding a fresh herbs to the veggies adds nice flavor (and makes your kitchen smell amazing during cooking!).

    In addition to its great taste, winter veggies especially broccoli  is  the good sources of dietary fiber and rich in magnesium. Broccoli is loaded with antioxidants, fiber, and numerous vitamins and minerals including magnesium, fol-ate and fiber which are good for health.

    Homemade Veggie Pizza

    While my super-food veggies were roasting I gathered and prepped my other ingredients. The dough only required a thin spread of pizza sauce and cheese to provide creamy texture and cheesy flavor.

    The veggies were done once they were slightly crisped and fork-tender, and I spooned them over the dough. I finished the pizzas off by topping them with the Mozzarella cheese, olives and a sprinkle of herbs.

    The last step involves popping the pizzas in the oven – I chose to make veggie pizzas  in individual mini pizza pans. They only needed about 15 minutes to cooked the dough and for the cheese to melt. I loved the contrast of the cheese, olives and herbs with the crunch from the veggies on this flavorful pizza!

    If you need a lighter dish, that doesn’t skimp on flavor, try this Homemade Veggie Pizza recipe. It’s fresh, full of flavor, and won’t weigh you down like the winter comfort food can.  Pizzas like this can be enjoyed as a quick and easy lunch or dinner, and make a tasty addition to a healthy diet. Enjoy!

    Recipe Tip’s:

    1. Feel free to play around a bit with the ingredients in this recipe if you make it yourself.
    2. Add nuts (walnuts, pumpkin seeds), more veggies, would be great, and you could also skip the cheese all-together and instead use the ricotta cheese as the sauce/base.

    If I ask what my brother wants for dinner, more than likely he will say “sandwiches/burgers.” This recipe is a twist on the usual burgers and packs a big taste punch with the pulled chicken, cheese and barbecue sauce. If you’re anything like me then a burger needs to be covered in cheese, ice-berg leaves, and many slices of olives and tomatoes.

    I think it’s time that I take a quick break from the highly caloric Iftar snacks I’ve been posting about recently, and share a favorite healthy recipe.  This Spicy Chickpea Salad (Chana Chaat) is a traditional Pakistani Iftar Staple.  We love munching on it throughout the year, but it’s especially nice in the summer after a long day of fasting. Known as a salad in the West and a savory snack or “Chaat” in the East. This low-fat dish has traveled a long way from Pakistan to make its way onto Iftar tables in South Asia and lunch/dinner tables across the rest of the world.

    Spicy Chickpea Salad (Chana Chaat)
    Spicy Chickpea Salad (Chana Chaat)

    The acidic and tart flavors of tamarind chutney, the sweetness of the apricot chutney and the cooling taste of mint chutney balances the palette out immaculately. A well made Spicy Chickpea Salad (or Chana Chaat) will enable you to taste all these flavors independently with each spoonful.

    Egg and Cucumber Sandwiches

    Egg and Cucumber sandwiches are the most delicious, easiest finger foods to make. All you need is sliced white bread, boiled eggs, mayonnaise and of course, cucumbers. To enhance the flavor, I also spread a thin layer of dill with cream cheese spread.

    Egg and Cucumber Sandwiches recipe

    I love adding cucumbers to egg mayonnaise. And sometimes different herbs too (especially dill goes very well with eggs and cucumbers). The cucumber can either be chopped finely and mixed into the egg mayonnaise or sliced thinly , I like the latter since it adds a nice fresh crunch to the sandwich. This can be made in advance and keeps well, so is perfect for tea parties.

    Mince Stuffed Cutlets 

    When I was in college, these “Mince Stuffed Cutlets” was one of the first recipes I ever added to my regular rotation.

    Mince Stuffed Cutlets is a great appetizer that involves soft delicate potato patties stuffed with seasoned cooked mince. Delicious and crispy patties that can be made in just 35 minutes. These make a great snack or appetizer or even a starter for parties or perfect for weekend meals.

    I used to fill my cutlets with spinach, broccoli, cheese, or whatever ingredients I have in my hand. It’s so fun to experiment with different ingredients, home cooking should be easy and fun! Although I enjoyed a lot of combinations, mince stuffed cutlets was always my favorite (and cheese, too).

    I know it seems quite far apart but when you take a bite it taste very close to the potato chops.

    There are many variations I have seen online. Some use a little flour mixed with the potato mash, an egg wash, bread crumbs and cornflour. You can make it vegetarian by using cooked peas and carrots in garam masala with some onions and fresh coriander then mixed with the mashed potato and shallow fried. You can replace the lamb mince with cooked ground chicken or beef, or fish. Try getting more creative: This is great fun – keep adding different ingredients to taste the different flavors.

    Last week, I made the world’s most amazing Meatballs in a tomato sauce with garlic bread on the side – where’s my invitation to go on Masterchef??  💁🏻 lol 😛

     I like to cook meatballs in sauce! These Italian flavored  meatballs in tomato sauce are my new favorite! 😀 ☺

    These meatballs are light, tender, and bursting with juicy flavor.You can just mix all the ingredients together, roll them and cook them and the best part of all, you can have these on your dinner table in less than 45 minutes.

    They would be great over pasta, mixed with tomato sauce as an appetizer or on their own, But I served these meatballs over some veggie noodles tossed in olive oil along with garlic bread. A recipe must try! The Best Meatballs You’ll Ever Have!

    I have also posted Meatball and Pea Pulao which is another easiest & tastiest version of making Dinner. Do check it out as well.

    Hope all of you are doing well and are leading happy, healthy lives. It seems such a long time since I’ve updated the blog. Well, ’seems’ is probably not the correct word to use, and I am promptly changing it to ‘has really been’! But thanks for being patient and still showering the blog with love during my absence. Sorry for that as I haven’t been feeling good these days.

    Check it out the Oven Roasted Chicken Legs recipe and printable version below!!

    Recipe Note’s:

    1. Do not place the seasoned chicken pieces directly on the baking sheet. Instead, place a wire cooling rack on top of the cookie sheet and place the chicken pieces on the rack, this will allow air to circulate around the chicken, resulting in perfectly crispy chicken without the soggy bottoms.
    2. If you like the chicken drumsticks nice and browned, place them under the broiler for few minutes after they are baked.
    3. If you prefer cheese, you can sprinkle 1/4 cup of freshly grated Parmesan cheese over them.

    I have also posted Chili Chicken Legs which is another easiest & tastiest version of making Drumsticks. Do check it out as well.

    Put your own spin on it. And lemme know how it turns out. Post a photo on Facebook (Recipestable) or  on Twitter so I can see how lovely yours turn out.

    Happy Cooking!!
