Homemade Garlic Naan. Even if you’ve never made bread at home before, this soft, chewy, garlicky flatbread is easy to make and well worth the effort. You’re going to love serving it with your favorite Indian dishes. If I could craft an idyllic version of myself– we’ll call her Dream Morgan– she’d be the sort…
Sheet-Pan Tandoori Chicken & Vegetables
If there was ever evidence of my incessant complaining having any sort of pull in this universe, it would be when the strip mall Indian joint appeared in this otherwise dull and flavorless town. Harsh, I know. But it’s true. In the months since it opened, James and I have eaten at that Indian restaurant… ah, more times than…
Slow Cooker Indian-Spiced Lentils
Since moving, I’ve learned that there’s a fat chance of finding decent takeout in this town. The pizza place a half-block away only serves edible food if “the old guy” is working. The Chinese in the same plaza is garbage. There was a good Chinese place about a mile down the road, but in a…
Indian Spiced Rice & Lentil Salad
Last year, I discovered that rice salad was an amazingly wonderful thing. It’s replaced pasta salad as my favorite binge-on-at-barbecues-until-the-shame-kicks-in dish.

Tandoori Chicken Naan Pizza
Worried about making pizza dough from scratch? Keep calm and carry naan. These are not your typical pizzas– instead of tomato sauce, pepperoni and mozzarella, we’re using tandoori chicken, mango, red onion, mint, cilantro, and yogurt… oh, and mozzarella, because in the end, you just can’t nix the mozz. Do you know what happens when…
Butter Chicken Pot Pie with Naan Crust
It never fails– when there’s snow on the ground and a grumbling in my stomach, I always crave comfort food in the form of Chicken Pot Pie. Juicy chicken, tender vegetables, and creamy sauce all nestled beneath crisp, golden crust; that’s my idea of cold weather consolation. Everything about Chicken Pot Pie screams “All-American classic”… but…
Crock Pot Chicken Tikka Masala Meatballs
It’s easy to rekindle our love with a lot of things this time of year: (most) Christmas music, twinkling lights, super thick sweaters, and, of course, our crock pots. With the holiday hustle in full force, I typically have a tendency to neglect my home cooked meals and I really don’t think I’m the only…
