Hi friends! I am really enjoying all this sunshine in Washington state. I’m eating a lot of yummy fresh things as the weather warms up. I’ve also always been a lazy foodie, so the less time I have to spend in the kitchen, the happier I am. Which brings me to the first obsession-
1. No cook smoked salmon board for dinner
Carb- check. Produce- check. Protein- check! My family loves this meal too- they never complain.
By the way, this is our favorite smoked salmon from Costco! It’s so moist and flavorful!
2. Melona popsicles
You know how you get moods for fresh popsicles and some other moods for creamy popsicles? This is for when you’re craving both fresh and creamy. We love the Ube and Honeydew flavors! Honeydew just screams summer- I also love this drink.
3. Always something fresh and crunchy with something soft
This is one of my big food rules! Everything soft (think enchiladas or mataar paneer and rice) can be drastically improved by adding something fresh and crunchy. It’s just that juxtaposition of textures in your mouth that make it more satisfying. So instead of just enchiladas, I’ll make a pico de gallo with it. For Indian food, I always order a fresh cucumber and lettuce salad to balance out the textures. Here are more soft + fresh and crunchy combos-
Do you have any food rules or recent desserts or easy meals you’re loving? I’d love to know!
