This is my first experience with kebabs and I went with the simplest one using mashed vegetables. Kebabs are very versatile and you could add cooked and mashed garbanzo or any vegetable of choice. It was really fun to make...]]> http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2012/07/vegetable-kebabs.html/feed 13 http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2012/06/zucchini-broccoli-ricotta-galette.html http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2012/06/zucchini-broccoli-ricotta-galette.html#comments Mon, 04 Jun 2012 07:00:53 +0000 Vardhini http://cooksjoy.com/blog/?p=2385 Time for the Gourmet Seven and for this month we have chosen “Pies/Tarts/Galette” from smittenkitchen. I decided to go with the galette since I did not have a tart pan and enjoyed the experience thoroughly. The pastry was flaky, tasty and the zucchini had a nice crunch to it. I also added broccoli since it gets disguised...]]> http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2012/06/zucchini-broccoli-ricotta-galette.html/feed 14 http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2012/05/english-muffins.html http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2012/05/english-muffins.html#comments Tue, 08 May 2012 06:01:44 +0000 Vardhini http://cooksjoy.com/blog/?p=1543 Time for the Gourmet Seven and for this month we have chosen ‘English breakfast”. The first thing that popped in my head on hearing the theme were these muffins. I have had them for breakfast a couple of times and would not have not thought about making them if not for blogging. So I started looking out...]]> http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2012/05/english-muffins.html/feed 17 http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2012/04/strawberry-lemonade.html http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2012/04/strawberry-lemonade.html#comments Thu, 05 Apr 2012 05:01:00 +0000 Vardhini http://cooksjoy.com/blog/?p=1491 Time for the Gourmet Seven and for this month we have chosen beverages. Although we have smoothies and beverages often at home, I hardly make it for the blog because I have a hard time trying to click a satisfying picture. So I seriously had butterflies in my tummy when beverages was the theme. I was drawn...]]> http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2012/04/strawberry-lemonade.html/feed 4 http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2012/03/sesame-yogurt-pasta-salad.html http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2012/03/sesame-yogurt-pasta-salad.html#comments Fri, 09 Mar 2012 14:48:50 +0000 Vardhini http://cooksjoy.com/blog/?p=1062 Hard to believe, but we are already on our second post for the Gourmet Seven and for this month we have chosen salads. It is not a regular salad, but a gourmet one . Having known only the lettuce salad with store bought dressing, I have to admit I have come a long way. Salads are...]]> http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2012/03/sesame-yogurt-pasta-salad.html/feed 1 http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2012/02/jaffa-cakes-for-the-gourmet-seven.html http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2012/02/jaffa-cakes-for-the-gourmet-seven.html#comments Fri, 03 Feb 2012 16:00:00 +0000 Vardhini http://cooksjoy.com/blog/?p=271 This is the first post for “The Gourmet Seven” and we have chosen the theme to be chocolate. It is apt as this month chocolate plays a good role . Jaffa cake is basically a small cake with a jelly layer followed by a chocolate layer. I had a very good experience making this cake...]]> http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2012/02/jaffa-cakes-for-the-gourmet-seven.html/feed 7
