Punjabi Fruit Chaat Recipe | Indian Fruit Chaat Recipe | Mixed Fruit Chaat - Street Food Recipe

Fruit Chaat Recipe
Today's recipe is an interesting, healthy and delicious Mixed Fruit Chaat that is popular in Punjab, India. I came to know about this tangy, spicy and refreshing chaat from my Neighbor Aunt. During summer holidays time I often take my kids to Aunt's home to play their with Aunt's  grand kids. Once we were there Aunt made this chaat for us as Mid day snack. This chaat was new to me since I haven't tasted fruit and potato together and also never tried with Chaat Chutney/Tamarind Sweet Chutney. She used Sweet Potato for the chaat, but she also said that regular potato/aloo can also included in the fruit chaat but usually they are deep fried than boiled. Also the sweet potatoes pairs well with tamarind sweet chutney. .For this chaat, i used Dates Tamarind Chutney but you can also use plain Tamarind Sweet Chutney (without dates)This fruit chaat is healthy, filling and delicious. Do try this fruit chaat for a change and I am sure you will love it.

Jackfruit Smoothie | Jackfruit Chia Smoothie Recipe | Jackfruit Banana Chia Smoothie | Chia Smoothie Recipes

Jackfruit Smoothie Recipe
Last month V bought a whole Jackfruit from Farm Fresh Market Store, yes., the whole fruit. We get Jackfruit here during season time but not as a whole fruit, they cut the whole fruit into 6 or 8 pieces and wrapped individually for sale. But this year, luckily got the whole Jackfruit here and that too the fruit was fully ripen with nice pretty golden color, tasted so so sweet and delicious. Even the honey dipped jackfruit will not taste that much sweet. We enjoyed the fruit to the core. First, I thought will make Kerala style Payasam and Halwa using that Jackfruit but you know the sweetness and the color of the fruit was so tempting and ended up eating them as such. I only tried this yummy and filling smoothie using Jackfruit and Banana Combo. So before the jackfruit season ends, try this tropical fruit smoothie and enjoy.

Strawberry Spinach Salad Recipe | Strawberry Spinach Salad With Poppy seed Vinaigrette

Strawberry Spinach Salad Recipe
Thanks to all my blogger friends who stop by my space and leave your valuable comments, your few words are really encouraging and means a lot to me. At the same time I am sorry that I couldn't do a courtesy visit back to your space, hopefully by next week will do it. Thank you for your support. Today's recipe is a simple, colorful and refreshing salad with greens and a fruit combo. This is kinda summer salad with summer special fruit strawberries but here strawberries are available throughout the year so can enjoy this salad anytime.
Only thing the taste of berries may not that sweet now, so I added some brown sugar to the dressing and the best part of this salad is the dressing. Mild tangy, sweet dressing with poppy seeds
was awesome and refreshing with spinach and strawberries. First time i tried dressing with poppy seeds, instead of black one I used white poppy seeds and i loved it. Overall the salad was delicious and filling.

Cantaloupe Muffins / Eggless Cantaloupe Muffins / Vegan Cantaloupe Muffins

Cantaloupe Muffins is one of my recent experiment that turned out so good. This is a Egg free, Vegan muffins made using whole wheat flour and fresh Cantaloupe Puree. Cantaloupes or Must Melon is my favorite fruit and love the fruit in any form but the Cantaloupe Juice is my most favorite. Cantaloupes are low in Saturated Fat and Sodium, and very low in Cholesterol. It is also a good source of Dietary Fiber, Niacin, Vitamin B6 and Folate. It is also a very good source of Vitamin A, Vitamin C and Potassium. Its always good to consume the fruit as such fresh way but once in a while can also make such delicious bakes with such healthy fruits or veggies.

Orange Grape Juice

After a severe cold winter for the past six months now here at our place Summer started and we really like/need this kind of warm weather. At the same time the hot sunny days really need more thirst quencher to make ourself hydrated & feel refreshing. Juices/popsicles/ice creams are one of the easiest way to stay include more seasonal fruits & stay hydrated. I mostly prefer fresh juices/smoothies without dairy products from fresh fruits which are coolant by nature & healthy too. Recently tried this Orange & Grape combo and this fresh juice require only some fresh grapes, oranges & little water, if needed add sugar or any sweetener &  just mix everything that's it..so refreshing and delicious summer drink ready to keep you cool n fresh. If u haven't tried this combo do give it a try, am sure u will love it.
