Protein powder yogurt ice cream

This will drive you insane, the taste and also when you come to know the ingredient list :P

So today I had a fulfilling breakfast and I was feeling full all the way till 4 o clock in the evening. Even then I didn't want a meal as such so I skipped my lunch. But you can crave for a dessert any time right :P

I am trying to eat clean until I see my extra unwanted pounds added upon my trip is burned out. So decided to stick to a dessert that won't ditch the diet. Also I wanted to mention a point here. I don't do any crash diet and I want my body to come to normal by eating clean than torturing it. I have done many times the crash ones to get back to my normal weight, it did help to reach there, but I was putting my body and metabolism on stake. I decided, no more playing with health, but eating clean and healthy would help you to reach the goals.

Also I stopped calorie counting, and I am just listening to my body now. It craves for something give it, and eat when it feels like.

This dessert will make sure your daily protein, healthy fats and antioxidants added up for the day.

Side note :

Nouriza my first protein Chocolate flavour is the protein powder I use as post workout drink. I see that my protein intake was too low and hence added this to my daily diet. Epigamia greek yogurt is plain one I use, as I don't like artificially flavoured ones. This can be used to customise our favourite sweet or savoury yogurts. It is again protein packed with low fat.
Raw cocoa nibs is from Amazon (Healthy Buddha Organic Raw Cocoa (Cacao) Nibs (150GR), which is available in Bigbasket too. But I got a margin in Amazon, so bought from there.

Ayala Pollichathu - Mackerel roast in plantain leaves

This is yet another traditional Kerala recipe, in which fish is roasted in plantain leaves. There is a two step process in cooking fish, first by shallow frying and then roasted inside a plantain leaf covered with masalas. So my experience with pollichathu was with Karimeen alone until this time, my favorite fish, which is called Pearl spot in English. All these while I haven't tried any other fish for this recipe. So let me tell you the story of how Ayala came into picture :D This happened on one fine day, my mom in law was telling me that the women who brings fish has brought lots of Mackerel and many other fishes and convinced her to buy a lot of them. So she was in a confusion on what will we do with all these, as weekend was almost going to finish and everyone of us moving to different places. And the same curry or fry would be boring and won't be appreciated by the men's league at home :D Then I went for helping her with the fish dilemma, she was having and

Egg biryani

Biriyani - The most rated and loved dish in India. Be it north or south, biriyani fan club chain is impossible to break. Now I am going to expose one secret about me and Biriyani. I know once I reveal, there would be a lot of haters for me, but this is just my personal opinion and I am all in support for all its supporters. So the thing is growing up, the name of biriyani was like a hype which hit me, and I remember craving for biriyani back then. I used to think, oh man; who discovered this wonderful dish. But lately, I think I lost the love for biriyani, not only biriyani but sort of all Arabic food. I am not a big fan of arabic cuisine, even though the foodie in me can eat any food and respect and appreciate every cuisine; for some reason the ingredients of Arabic cuisine is not going well with my taste palette as well as tummy. But I m a big supporter of food lovers, and having the core fans of Arabic food at home, I have to prepare, but I love preparing as well. Coz for me what

The dish that made me feel so proud about myself. Sweet potato noodle soup prepared in authentic Japanese way, from the scratch. I really felt like a 5 ⭐️ chef 👩‍🍳 today . Such a comforting food for a gloomy cold day. Finally the art of assembling was so satisfying and then diving to the soup bowl 🍲 I used chopsticks 🥢 to maintain the authentic Japanese way 🥰 Topped with fish filets pan roasted 🐟 #sweetpotatonoodlessoup The ingredient list would be a little overwhelming as everything is made from scratch, but these are worth to be stocked as these are base for most of any Asian cuisine. I prepared a veggie stock, some of my favourite veggies blanched and fish as topping. So let’s start prepping the ingredients for our noodle soup. Noodles I used sweet potato noodles - 70 gms which when cooked would be around 3/4 to 1 cup Water for boiling - 3 cups Veggies Cut the veggies julienned I used radish, onion, spring onion, celery, g
