Strawberry Crisp

Aishwarya MS Leave a comment
vegan_strawberry_crisp I’m flooded with negative vibes sometimes and it’s really scary and stressful. I try to shoo them away by practising mindfulness. I do a lot of  gardening, walking and baking. It really helps me relax and therapeutic. I know it totally doesn’t sound anything like me but I guess it’s part of grieving. Last week I baked whole wheat buns and this week I baked this delicious dessert- Strawberry Crisp. Read More …

So, last week I told you guys that I received my IP and would like to try these recipes. I just got to try yogurt and bisibelebath as of now, both came out well. I tried using part rice part quinoa combined with toor dal and loved how it turned out. You can use just rice and dal too.I’m using my mom’s bisibelebath powder here. Let me know if you’d want the recipe, I can get it from my mom. Here’s how I made it. Click on the ‘Instant pot‘ tag to see other recipes. image2 (16)Read More …

My name gets butchered.

Aishwarya MS 2 Comments
My name is Aishwarya and it gets butchered all the time. “Icewarya” “Ashwarya” “Ashley” “Aishweria” These are the top four worst versions of my name. Ugh! The struggle is real!!!!!!!! Not trying to kill you with those unnecessary overdose of exclamation marks but that’s how I cringe! In fact there are very few people who call me by my real name, I have like zillion nick names but that’s another story for another time.. I understand if Starbucks gets my name wrong because that’s their thing. I understand even if non-Indians get my name wrong since its foreign to them. But my fellow Indian friends, WHY?!!!! It’s not like my name is very tough or unique. I know like(count the number of times I used the word “like” in this post) more than 10 AISHWARYAs myself. So guys, please please Please PLEASE please please please try NOT to butcher my name. Thanks in advance, Lots of love, A I S H W A R Y A!

If you have been following me here or Instagram, you know that I’m a sucker for smoothies. I love how yummy, healthy and filling it is. Checks all the boxes!

This time I just added some spinach, green apple and a tiny piece of ginger.Trust me that tiny piece goes a long way, I’m sure you wouldn’t want ginger to be dominating. So here’s how i made it. You will need-Read More …
