    This salad came to my mind right as I was falling asleep.

    Does your brain ever do crazy stuff like that? My best ideas seem to come when I’m about to doze off and don’t have a notebook or pen to write things down, so I just make a pact with my brain to remember. And the next day we both do our best to recall what we were thinking.

    Thankfully, this one made it through the pipeline! Three cheers for my old lady brain still working!

    Bean Salad with Olives and Herbs

    Bean Salad with Olives and Herbs

    I’ve made many a Bean salad before, but this one is special. This is the answer to the question, “What’s super cozy, flavorful and perfect for any BBQ Party?” It’s a great addition to any summer get together!

    This Pakistani/Italian flavor pairing came to mind, and the recipe is adapted from my all-time favorite Bean Salad.   One super easy thing you can prep ahead is beans. I love beans because you can make them so many different ways and they’re packed with protein, slow-digesting carbohydrates and fiber. Their nutritional profile makes them ideal for prepping before a workout and recovering after a workout. If you’re trying to lose weight or maintain a healthy weight, they’re great for that too since they make you feel full longer.

    One of my favorite ways to enjoy beans during the warmer months is with my Bean Salad. It’s super easy to make and it tastes really yummy too! This recipe is simple, requiring just 10 minutes to prepare! You can eat it all on its own (what I normally do) or dress it up by adding some more chopped veggies to it. It’s also great added to some greens either in a wrap or in a salad.

    The dressing is SO easy (and dreamy).

    Italian herbs are blended with vinegar . Add olive oil water to thin and ‘voila!’ You have a super yummy, tangy Italian dressing ready to coat those gorgeous bean salad. Look at that salad goodness.

    Bean Salad with Olives and Herbs

    I hope you all LOVE this Bean salad! It’s:

    • Hearty
    • Flavorful
    • Vegetable-packed
    • Fiber- & Protein-rich
    • Tangy + Crunchy
    • Super healthy & Delicious

    This would make the perfect side dish for BBQ Party, or any get together, really. It yields four entrée-sized portions or 8 sides, so multiply as needed. Although it’s delicious on its own, it would pair extremely well with my Grilled Lamb Chops, and my Grilled Italian Chicken.

    Bismillah, let’s get started the recipe!!

    Oh ya, this is the good stuff. I mean,  spaghetti and broccoli are such a wonderful, comforting combination anyway. But turn that into soup and you’ve got a wonderful meal for a cold winter night! 

    Broccoli Spaghetti Soup (Clean Eating Version)
    Broccoli Spaghetti Soup (Clean Eating Version)

    In the last week, I seriously made four different types of soups. This Broccoli Spaghetti Soup was my favorite of the four, and surprisingly, the healthiest as well!

    The recipe starts with crisp stalks of organic broccoli. I am making the organic distinction here, because the main flavor of this soup comes from the broccoli, so it’s got to be top notch.  That means organic and preferably local.First tossed broccoli with olive oil until tender, caramelized and aromatic.  Then stir in born broth and cooked spaghetti. It’s chunky, brothy savory, and just the right balance of pasta and green veggie. I love the aroma of parsley and chunky broccoli in this soup.

    Ingredients You will Need:

    1. Organic Broccoli Florets 
    2. Born Broth

    It is pretty simple and fast to put together and differs completely from another pan fried fish I have posted earlier. This Tangy Pan Fried Fish relies on warm flavor of ginger, sharp garlic and the grassy heat of green chillies along with a tang from vinegar and chaat masala. I pan fry the fish in virgin olive oil, you need to try fish cooked in it to know how awesome it tastes but canola or other oil will work fine too.

    1. Clean fish properly and pat dry on paper towel or kitchen towels.
    2. Sprinkle turmeric over the fish fillets and set aside.

    Ah, a good fish fry.  Who doesn’t love that?  That crunch of flaming-hot fish fillets straight from the fryer.

    I love fried fish. While it make my tummy rumble in ecstasy, my blood vessels are shuttering with fear of all that cholesterol. 😛

    We usually have the batter made out of white flour, or maybe cornflour (hello, sky-high insulin), and then deep-fried in some vat of polyunsaturated fat that has been used over and over, creating a huge batch of trans-fat laden ooze that your fish is swimming in before it reaches your plate, all to wreck havoc on your health. Okay, so maybe now you don’t love fried fish so much? Sorry to ruin it for ya! But here’s my healthy, and lip-smacking alternative!!

    In this Salmon Fish Fry recipe I have used Salmon fish which cook well of the bone. You can experiment with other fish. Meatier fish like tilapia fish, Sole and halibut work very well too.Salmon fish tastes the best when marinated with spices and fried. I had this salmon fish fry with the roasted veggies and such a treat it was…. the perfect delicious clean eating meal.
