Here's a nice simple dinner idea that's perfect for the summer! I think fajitas are a staple in most households so adding these super quick shrimp fajitas to your fajita rotation should be a no-brainer! This one is so quick, it was not even worth it to fire up the grill outside, I just grabbed my grill pan and got dinner ready in a matter of a few minutes! I simply grilled all of the onions and peppers without any seasoning to just enjoy their natural flavors. I usually salt everything, but I ...
Hello Summer!…plus a strawberry dessert idea

Idli Waffles with Instant Pot Sambar and a Quick Coconut Chutney
How cute are these Idli Waffles??!! Idli Waffles I really wish this was another quick and easy weeknight dinner option, but it just wasn't as quick as I like my usual recipes to be! But it is worth testing out for the change in textures you get with these idli waffles! It falls somewhere in between a crispy dosa and a super soft and fluffy idli. You get a crisp outer surface from the waffle iron but the inside of the waffle is still very fluffy! And I still make these on a weeknight when ...
