After all - nothing beats a gift given that you can both enjoy together?

Kebabs, kabob, shish kebab or skewer — call them whatever you want but you’ve got to agree that just about everything tastes better when grilled on a stick. These exotic delicacies may have their roots from Turkey and Armenia but the concept of eating skewered meat has fans around the world.

Despite fully understanding the healthy impact of fruits in our diet, most of us aren't really big on eating them. But turn them into a delicious icy treat and we’ll gobble them like polar bears.
These frozen desserts are a lazy girl’s hack to beat the heat. Why? Because anything edible that takes 1/2-ingredients, no prep and is gluten-free (if you skip the toppings and sugar) deserves to be on the top spot.
Watch this fun video by YouTube chef Alyssia Sheikh of @MindOverMunch channel where she shares 3 different ways to prepare a sorbet with only 1 ingredient – FRUIT!

Whether it’s their guilt-free reputation, the creamy smooth texture or just the sweltering heat outside— we are LEGIT obsessed with fro-yo this summer. Why, you ask?
Because there is literally NO dessert out there that will make you feel good and satisfy the sweet tangy craving like frozen yoghurt will.
But despite our food crushing, most of the store-bought froyos don’t really help in the calorie department. They have added preservatives, sugar content and let’s not forget the candy toppings.

When life becomes too fast, we lose the sense of right and wrong. And as we continue with the daily routine, the truth becomes irrelevant and the lies — almost real.
The billion dollar food industry is the perfect specimen of this theory. Sure, you’re aware of some advertising tricks to keep you in a constant state of hunger, but then again, you may not. You might, in reality, just find yourself chewing on a mouthful of lies.

If the image of anything cheese-meltingly sweet makes you want to dance then get your grooves on, you’re in for a roll.
Say hello to Middle East’s cheesecake — kanafeh. A sweet, rich, crunchy and creamy cheese pastry soaked in sweet sugary syrup. Also referred to as kunafeh, kunafah, konafa or kanafeh (it’s all the same), this heavenly pastry is traditionally made of semolina, butter, palm oil.

Have you ever had one of those thought-provoking philosophical moments where you’ve stopped eating mid-way to stare and ponder over the strange shape, dent or texture of the stuff in front of you?
Food in every morsel, type and shape is a blessing for an empty stomach but it's full of strange mysteries.

Before we begin, here are two important thoughts:
1. Being vegan is not a crash diet but a lifestyle change that and like with everything impactful in life, it comes with patience, practice and effort.
2. Second of all, it’s A LOT more than just eating lettuce.
Whether you’re experimenting with a plant-based diet or getting used to the concept of a becoming a vegan, the initial phase can be an underwhelming experience. Lack of options, cravings, peer pressure and a sudden sense of loss can divert you away from your goal.
