Italian Knot whole wheat Garlic bread
About:
This is a classic Italian snack, garlic knots are strips of pizza dough tied in. Here in this recipe to make knots I used whole wheat flour in the dough and olive oil and olive spread but feel free to use plain flour and butter if desired. Plain flour definitely gives a soft texture inside and easy to handle but using wheat flour makes it healthy and without much compromising in taste- crusty on outside, soft inside and the garlic olive oil soaked flavour.
Enjoy this during the evening snacks or even on the party tables with Italian platter.

Vermicelli/Thin Noddles stuffed in Pepper
About:
Have you ever tried stuffing peppers with noodles/vermicelli. Here it is.
I love including stuffed roasted veggies in my meal so keep playing around with different stuffings and veggies. Check my peanut stuffed pepeprs (link)
Thin noodles stuffed peppers can be served as an appetizer or a meal. Here I used thin wheat noodles, which is similar to vermicelli/semiya but thinner than semiya. So any kind of noodles can be used and veggies can be included for variation. Mango noodles is the blend of mango rice and noodles/vermicelli recipe. Adding mango to noodles gives sweet and tangy taste with the mango flavour.
Enjoy this stuffed peppers with any salad/ sauce.
