Whenever I travel through Chicago O'Hare airport, I have to make sure I get this delicious chickpea salad from Argo Tea. It is super delicious and a perfect airport meal/snack because its light and nutritious. Last time I ate this salad, I wrote down the ingredients and guessed the proportions per my taste. I made a huge batch of this protein packed salad a few weeks ago and my sister and I ate this for lunch for a few days and we didn't even get sick of it.

I was never a fan of zucchini chunks in minestrone soups because of its one dimentional soft consistency. My friend, Devina, made these awesome Zucchini Parmesan Crisps (featured on The Mess I Make) and I started exploring other ways to eat zucchini squash.
I made these cute zucchini bowls, that almost look like sushi rolls, for a Christmas dinner (sorry, this is a super late post) hosted by the newlyweds, #KenVina (Ken and Devina). Carving out the zucchini bowls is moderately labor intensive but the end result is super adorable so it is all worth it, I promise!

[A super late post from NYE]
I frantically called my mom the afternoon of NYE asking for ideas to make an easy dip for a NYE party. I didn’t have much time to plan ahead because work kept me busy but mom came to the rescue! She saw this recipe on Show Me The Curry and she has made this a bunch of times. She adds her own twist to eat each time she makes it and its always super delicious. I guess I get my “I can’t follow a recipe” from her and how ironic that I have a recipe blog!
Anyway, this dip turned out delicious and only took me 20 minutes to put together. This is definitely a crowd pleaser…perfect for any party.
