Creamy Feta Dip using Cheese2U
Disclaimer: This post is sponsored by Cheese2U.com , all opinions are mine. Hey guys! I hope you’re doing well and staying safe! Today I’m bringing you a simple recipe I love, Creamy Feta Dip! This is a recipe I make when I need something to come together quickly for my guests. A few weekends ago I was hosting a mini get-together with friends and I had racked my brain trying to zero in on a good dip for the party. I ultimately came to the conclusion that I would make my famous Creamy Feta Dip and serve it alongside crackers and a small cheese plate on the side. So,…

Kheema Egg Rolls
Kheema Egg Rolls are crispy egg rolls filled with spiced ground/minced meat, onions, and cilantro. I usually make around 50-60 and freeze most of them for quick snacks and/or appetizers/meals. My family seems to go through the batches like vultures! I mean I’m really not complaining because I know they love these Kheema Egg Rolls. I serve these for parties all of the time. I usually pair them with mint/coriander chutney or my famous spice chutney(recipe coming soon). The recipe is simple and it’s definitely a crowd-pleaser. If you prefer to bake instead of fry I suggest you preheat your oven to 450 degrees and bake for 15-20 minutes. For…

Spanish Garlic Shrimp (Gambas Al Ajillo)
Spanish Garlic Shrimp is a recipe I make a few times a month for my family. The first time I tasted this dish was when I was in Spain at a tapas restaurant. It was extremely crowded but despite the hustle and bustle, I was thoroughly engrossed in the amazing dishes that were coming out of the kitchen, particularly this Spanish Garlic Shrimp. The dish was so good that after all of these years I have not forgotten the taste! One of the most popular tapas, or small plates, in all of Spain, is gambas al ajillo, camarones al ajillo or Spanish Garlic Shrimp as I call it. It is truly a…

Spicy Southwestern Corn Salad
I love making this Spicy Southwestern Corn Salad all year round, it makes enough to feed plenty of people, which is always a plus and it can make a great side dish or appetizer if served with chips. If I’m feeling like something heavier then I just add cheese and melt it all up in the microwave! It’s also great to put on tacos, quesadillas, or in enchiladas! I love it so much I add it to my mac and cheese sometimes(just omit the avocado) Super versatile and yummy! For those that like it spicy just add more jalapenos or habaneros as I do! Enjoy!

I have been making these delicious and healthy chicken lettuce wraps for a couple of years now and my family absolutely loves them!
