Cowboy Caviar by Lynn YamamotoThis is fresh, healthy and delicious. People love it, even kids. You can make it ahead, so it's great for a summer party. Serve it with scoop-shaped tortilla chips, or have it on the side as a relish. I add extra cilantro, because there can never be too much cilantro! |

Homemade Refried Beans by John SpottiswoodI'm ashamed to say that though I LOVE refried beans, this is the first time I've ever made them myself. It's just so easy to buy them in a can, or at a mexican restaurant, that I haven't bothered. But this recipe is simple and it is definitely worth the effort in my mind.

Chickpeas Veggie Burger Patties by Gourmandelle LifestyleBlogThis recipe is perfect for camping trips because it doesn’t spoil fast and it is also very filling. I don’t normally fry veggies but I had to finish this dish super-fast and I chose the easy but not-so-healthy path. Anyway, even though I fried the burgers I used a small amount of oil and I also fried them for a very short time. The… |

My Favorite Super-Easy Hummus Recipe by Gourmandelle LifestyleBlogI love hummus! I have tried so many recipes of hummus, but I didn’t enjoy any of them as much as I enjoy this one. The great thing about this recipe is that it’s ready in only 10 minutes! I didn’t use tahini paste and instead I used some toasted sesame seeds and a little bit of cold pressed sesame oil. I personally like sesame seeds… |

Masoor Dal –Red Lentil Stew by Meghna PatelDal in general is a true soul food for any Indian at heart. I relish any kind of dal with simple steamed rice. Arhar or Tool and Moong dals top the chart but I am in mood for something different today. Hummm….. I searched my pantry high and low and I found a jar of Masoor Dal/Red Lentil . Now Masoor Dal is not frequently made in… |
