Aval or flattened rice is a great breakfast option or it can be had as a snack too. The beauty of this dish is that, it can be prepared in very less time and it is very flavorful and tasty! I love any aval dish as it gives an opportunity to break away from the mundane idli and dosa!
I have already posted a simple aval upma recipe, this one has more vegetables and is more flavorful. Also check out the red aval upma recipe.

Since my daughter started school, I'm upto my nose with things to do! My responsibilities seems to have doubled and baking and blogging has taken a backseat! Amidst all this, my maid quietly told my mum that her 3rd daughter's birthday is coming up. I normally bake cakes for her children's birthdays and I did not want to disappoint the little girl but since I did not have time to bake a cake, I made these mango muffins.

This is such a simple recipe, so easy and quick to put together. I finished this in 35 mins after bringing my daughter home from school. It tastes absolutely delish, so soft and moist! My maid said her daughter's have never had cupcakes/muffins before and they thoroughly enjoyed this muffin!

Eggless Brownies

I am finally satisfied with my eggless brownies! I have tried many eggless brownie recipes but none has been upto my satisfaction. I like only fudgy brownies, I don't like cake like brownies. Brownies have to be like brownies, intensely chocolaty and fudgy, what's the point in having cake like brownies! I like brownies like this Triple Chocolate Fudge Brownies and these fudgy cocoa brownies. I have been looking for an eggless brownie that will be this good, just like brownies are supposed to be!
