Herbed Zucchini Salad
Salads are very high on my list of light and refreshing foods and I love the ones that give the perfect bite. Just as this herbed zucchini salad I am sharing with you today. It is light, fresh, crisp, filling and simple to make. Perfect for warmer weather and also a lovely change if you’ve been eating a lot of lettuce, cucumber and tomato salads.

Garden Vegetable Soba Recipe
I’m all about making real meals simple and convenient enough for weekdays. The easier it is, the more likely you are to cook it and eat it. This delicious recipe is a great way to use up a lot of odds and ends from the fridge or vegetable basket. It makes a great option for packed lunch as it tastes equally good warm, cold, or at room temperature. I usually serve this garden vegetable soba noodles with a piece of oven baked fish or chicken for a more substantial meal.
Wadi wali Lauki/ Bottlegourd cooked with Sundried lentil cakes
Bottle gourd is highly appreciated vegetables in Indian cuisine though it is not very familiar to the western world (yet!) as an edible. It is rich in minerals and high in water therefore considered extremely light on the digestive system. It is used in stir fries, curries, with lentils, in desserts, soups and a lot more. This is a super simple and homey dish, but the flavors are tremendous. We Punjabis particularly love to add wadis in it. They add a lot of flavor and make the dish enjoyably spicy.
