The weekends always lead me to start my late mornings with something cozy and warm like these Blueberry Brown Sugar Waffles. I’ve gotta say, I’m much more of a pancake or french toast lover, but every now and then, the…
Jalebi Waffles
Who says you can’t have dessert for breakfast? Every bite of this waffle will hopefully remind you of the crunchy, sweet, savory goodness that is jalebis.
Cardamom Pancakes with Butter Chai Syrup

Spiced Coconut Milk French Toast
What’s more satisfying than breakast? I can eat breakfast for dinner, which is exactly what happened when I made my Spiced Coconut Milk French Toast. Many variations of French Toast exist, but this is hands-down my favorite way to make…
Our Wedding Recap: the setup, the celebration, and the sandwich

Uppumav/Upma (Spiced Semolina)
You know, as a kid I wasn’t really crazy about uppumav. The sweet, salty, spicy crumbly and steamy plate my mom would serve with a banana had my tastebuds going wild. But the older I get, the more I find myself loving these old childhood dislikes.
Kerala Appam/Palappam
My all-time favorite South Indian food combo is these cripsy-edged appams paired with a ladle full of tangy, sweet chicken curry poured on top of the pillowy center. Growing up, this was my breakfast. My brunch. Our special occasion table special for holidays like Christmas and Easter. Nothing beats eating this, except being able to make it from scratch!
Roasted Sweet Potato, Chicken Sausage, and Goat Cheese Frittata
Frittatas are a scrumptious way to add a good amount of your favorite things into one pan and call it breakfast or brunch (or, really, whatever meal time of the day you choose to eat this). It’s like a sophisticated omelette with it’s heavy egg base and crisped up edges.
Chocolate Blueberry Pancakes with Salted Caramel Peanut Butter Syrup

Cheesy Jalapeño Bacon Sweet Potato Frittata
No, this isn’t a recipe tongue twister, it’s the delicious result of being HANGRY and making use of what’s currently in my fridge before it goes bad. Frittatas are not only incredibly easy to make, but there are endless ways to flavor them.
