Rice Noodle Pasta

This is a quick and easy stir fry recipe that comes together in 30 minutes. It’s perfect for busy weeknights, plus it’s lighter and healthier than takeout! Takeout is often dripping with sweet, salty and oily sauces but this 4-ingredient sauce is light and so flavourful.


So, what can be replaced with the regular noodles which are good for the health and also will not change the taste of the dish? The substitute that I found was 'Rice Noodles'. Rice noodles are simply made of rice flour and water which helps in healthy digestion and is very easy to prepare at home as well. After doing so much research and replacements, I have come up with a delicious yet wholesome recipe.


Serves – 4
Ingredients: 
1 medium-sized pack of rice noodles (boiled)
1 cup broccoli florets
1 medium sized onion and tomato, chopped 
1/2 cup coconut milk or fresh cream
1/2 cup yellow and red bell peppers (both half cup)
5-6 chopped mushrooms
7-8 garlic pods
2-3 tbsp tomato pure
1 tbsp olive oil
Seasonings: Oregano, Rosemary, Thyme, Chilli flakes, and salt.


Method:
1. Boil the rice noodles as per the instructions in the packet. 
2. Heat olive oil in a pan.
3. Saute all the veggies for 4-5 mins.
2. Add 2-3 tbsp of tomato paste and mix well.
3. Add seasonings like oregano, chilli flakes, rosemary, thyme, and salt as per taste and then add some water and let it cook.
4. Then add 1/2 cup of coconut milk or fresh cream, mix well and bring it to a light boil.
5. Add rice noodles and mix well.
6. Once ready serve it hot.

Pumpkin Pie Spice Mix Recipe!!!

As the leaves start to change color and cheery pumpkins show up on doorsteps, summer seems like a distant memory and we're smack-dab in the middle of fall. And while pumpkin spice-flavored treats make their appearance just about, well, everywhere, do you even know what it contains? Here's what it is and why you should make it at home. (Hint: It's as easy as it gets!) Guess What? There's No Pumpkin in Pumpkin Spice! For years, I thought pumpkin pie spice actually had pumpkin in it. Silly me. How on earth would you get pumpkin in there? Dehydrate and powder it? In any case, pumpkin pie spice is simply a blend of the traditional spices that go into a good ol' fashioned pumpkin pie. What's in Pumpkin Pie Spice? If you go the store-bought route, pumpkin pie spice blends can vary by manufacturer, but typically contain the more sweet-smelling spices, like cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, and ginger. Allspice and mace are also common ingredients. Why Should ...

Low Calorie No-Bake Chocolate Cheesecake

As the post title suggests, Low Calorie No-Bake Chocolate Cheesecake, you must be wondering, if there is chocolate and its a cheesecake, how could it be low calorie - well, its not really low calorie, but it would be definitely lower than an actual "cheesecake" :) This cheesecake is a fast track recipe which can be thrown in within a few minutes. I don't follow the classic baked cheesecake method. I've tried earlier and failed. But later I came across the no-bake cheesecake recipe and that became the base for all kinds of cheesecakes that I have prepared earlier. Coming to the ingredients, I don't use cream cheese which is the base for any cheesecake, because, firstly, its very high in calories and secondly its very not easily available here. So see we saved some calories there, with a little price paid on the taste. However, I can bet most people won't be able to make out the difference whether there is cream cheese or something else. I'm preparing...
