Avocado Peanut and Mint – Spread/dip/pesto


Peanut Mint Pesto1

About:

Here in this recipe we are tossing peanuts instead of pine nuts in an Italian pesto and used avocado in place of cheese.

I am a huge fan of avocados, so tried to blend avocado in place of cream to add creamy texture to the pesto.

Traditionally pesto sauce with its combination is healthy addition to any diet. While rather high in calories and fat, pesto offers a wealth of nutrients and punch of flavour. When enjoyed in moderation, pesto can enhance your health and nutrient intake.

Yields: 1cup

Spiced Onion rings on Tawa Or Oven


Onion rings4

About:

I have been craving onion rings and tried this variant.  These were AMAZING because they truly tasted like the real deal.

To enhance the taste, I added fresh Italian seasoning to give the rings a peppy, lively flavour and some cayenne pepper to give spicy kick. They are perfect with the dipping sauce.

Be sure to top with some fresh herbs too (If desired).
