Caprese Chicken Pasta

0 Long, long ago when I first stared Carlsbad Cravings (okay, less than 2 ½ years ago, but it feels like forever), I posted Garlic Roasted Vegetable and Lemon Basil Chicken Linguine.

Chanay Ki Daal Ka Halwa

There is this expression in Urdu, “aapis mein milne se mohabbat barhti hai.” Roughly translated the more you meet someone the more you care about them.

When I went up to her she said “excuse me, we are having some us time” and shooed me away....

Chimichurri Recipe

What is Chimichurri? Chimichurri is a combination of fresh parsley and other potential herbs with oil and vinegar and several other possible ingredients.
