  • Is it hot where you are or does it feel like Fall? Doing some early AM meal planning for the week and I can’t figure out if I’m planning for summer weather or fall weather 😂 aah life in Canada 🇨🇦 This Chicken & Rice Soup with Chillies hits the mark all year round. On the meal plan it goes! Linking my post on meal planning and my soup recipe in my stories and on my profile! . . . . . #flourandspiceblog #soup #comfortfood #feedfeed #foodie #foodblogger #torontoblogger
  • Is it Pasta O’Clock yet? Let’s hope not because I am doing something I’ve never done before - putting myself on a timer to get this Sun Dried Tomato & Chicken Pasta post up! Its been a busy week and I’ve procrastinated a little too so now I am publicly pushing myself to get it done! Can I do it? We shall found out! It’s 11:30AM Toronto time ... 1..2...3... GO! . . . . . . #flourandspiceblog #pasta #torontoblogger #oakville #foodie #feedfeed #f52grams
  • Fact: my husband doesn’t like Chana Pulao. I love it. What do you like that your significant other doesn’t? Share away! . . . . #pakistaniblogger #pakistanifood #pulao #rice #delish #food #foodie #f52grams #feedfeedindia #dawndotcom
  • Do you guys watch @fixerupper_hgtv ??? We are OBSESSED with that show. Whenever Chip gets done with his portion he “passes the baton” on to Jo. Well folks I’ve inadvertently passed on the brownie baton to my 5 year old and there’s no getting it back! The easiest brownie recipe is saved in my highlights where I probably made them for the last time. When do you think I can pass on the Biryani Baton? . . . #flourandspiceblog #pakistaniblogger #brownies #torontoblogger #oakville #chocolate #foodie #feedfeedchocolate
  • What does home mean? So many of us have several - the homes we live in now, our parents homes, the countries we grew up in. Is it a function of time? I spent 11+ years in Jeddah, lived in Karachi for less yet Karachi has always been home ever more so than the city of my birth. Am loving being back here eating basics like Aaloo Qeema, the dish I cook because it reminds me of home (Karachi), at my other home (Toronto). Those of you following my insta stories know I’m eating a lot more too 😂 Perhaps home is just the comfort of being taken care of by loved ones, of being able to exhale and let go of ones guard, of old strong relationships, and new ones that feel age old. What do you think? What is home to you? . . . . #flourandspiceblog #pakistanifood #qeema #karachi
  • Hey guys! Are you SO impressed with my casual looking at the camera and slicing fruit like there’s zero chance of me cutting myself? Don’t buy it for one second - I peeked plenty! I’m beaming with doltish enthusiasm not because I like living on the edge (lol) but because I was so darn excited to snack on a little medley of aromatic fresh and local peaches and strawberries that I’d picked up at @loblawson. I recently had the privilege of meeting with my local in-store registered dietitian there, and friends, it was life changing. Not in the “no carbs! No sugar!” (No joy) kinda way, but in a way that’s eminently sustainable long term. For the last two weeks I’ve made little changes to my lunches and snacks and I already feel SO MUCH BETTER. Doing some intense sharing on the blog - Link in profile! #sponsored #FoodLoversUnite #loblaws #torontoblogger #igerstoronto #ontarioblogger
  • Show of hands - whose baking something this long weekend? Also, is there any ingredient more Canadian than Maple Syrup? Is there anything more desi than chai and cake? Ok maybe a thing or two, but you get where I’m going with this right?!? It’s #CanadaDay weekend here folks and this #Maple Pecan Cake is the perfect way to celebrate! I was going to be all emo right here but saved some of that sentiment for the blog post 😆 link in profile! #igerstoronto #cake #maple #wethenorth #torontoblogger #canadianblogger #flourandspiceblog #delish
  • Summer is for Sandwiches right? The kinds you can throw into a picnic basket, onto a plate with some fries, into lunch boxes as you go from activity to activity.

  • *non Hyderabadi girl panic kicking in* breathe Sarah breathe - also stop talking to yourself in public! After the great Qeema/Keema debate I learnt that many of my friends here are Kheema saying Hyderabadis. To all of you I apologize in advance for sharing this recipe for Khatti Daal which has no tamarind, no tomatoes but such a special special place in my heart. And my belly 😆 There has been no question in my mind that after my Eid hiatus the first recipe I would share would be a daal. My love for it is never ending - just ask my fridge lol Recipe on the blog, link in profile! . . . . . #flourandspiceblog #muslimahblogger #pakistanifood #indianfood #daal #lentils #dawndotcom
  • What’s your favourite kind of kheer? When I was a kid I thought there was only one kind: Bread Kheer or Double Roti ki Kheer! Also isn’t double roti the cutest word? Shared this recipe over @browngirlmag and linking it in my profile and stories!
  • You asked and they’re here just in time for Eid! PHEW!
