Homemade Aglio Olio

By | Recipes | No Comments

 For a month now we have been trying so many Italian restos looking for good aglio olio – only to find out that we didn’t have to search so far?? You think it is very easy to make but many can’t make it the way we like it. Mom is the best cook ever ?? I wish she could cook for us more often #h2hrecipes#h2hpasta #h2hhomemade#h2hhomecooking

A Red Velvet lover’s Dream Come True Maya launches its new Red Velvet mix in time for the holidays

A Red Velvet lover’s dream come true
Maya launches its new Red Velvet mix in time for the holidays  

Red Velvet is arguably the most sought-after flavor there is nowadays, taking over almost every recipe from cakes, cupcakes, and cookies. It shouldn’t come as a surprise, because of the eye-catching red hue, and subtle taste of cocoa in contrast to a generous accompaniment of cream cheese frosting.

To make recipes you try out at home a lot more interesting, Maya is finally adding the MAYA Decadence Red Velvet Premium Mix to its line of high quality mixes. There’s no limit to the kinds of treats you can whip up. After all, you can turn the Maya Decadence Premium Mixes into extraordinary cakes and pastries that would show off your baking skills. Whether it’s the dense and moist texture you can get out of the Yellow Cake Mix, the melt-in-your-mouth chocolate cake from the Devil’s Food Cake Mix, or the rich taste of cocoa in the Fudge Brownie Mix, the Maya Decadence products are great for grand celebrations and will surely impress your friends and family.

Maya Red Velvet Strawberry Creamwich (2)

Now that the Christmas season is nearing, the new MAYA Decadence Red Velvet Premium Mix is the right kind of ingredient you’ll need to add something extra for the holidays.

You can never go wrong with a moist Red Velvet Cupcake and a batch of Red Velvet Cookies. You can even go a little more sophisticated with Orangey Red Madeleines, an excellent pairing with tea or coffee in the afternoon.

A Red Velvet Strawberry Sandwich is another unique take on a classic cake which you can make many batches of to share in a Noche Buena. The cream cheese filling in between two soft red velvet sponge cakes will surely be a hit. Kids – especially if you have godchildren of your own – will also enjoy Red Scarlet Cake Pops covered in chocolate or topped with red velvet crumbs.

Maya Orangey Red Madeleins

If you want to be a little more adventurous and go a little less traditional, switch up the cream cheese for other flavors. Try out the Red Velvet Cookie Chocolate Bars recipe or the Red Velvet Cookie Chocolate Layered Cake to take decadence to a whole new level of richness. And instead of a frosting, why not take your cream cheese and whip up a Red Velvet Swirl Cheese Cake.

Get your hands on a MAYA Red Velvet Mix now to start creating your own red velvet treats perfect for your upcoming holiday parties or to just simply indulge in at home. For more recipes you can take inspiration from, visit www.themayakitchen.com.

A budget-friendly and healthy way of eating every day at work or in school is to bring your own packed meal. Sometimes though, we tend to fall back on the same dishes which takes the enjoyment out of eating what we prepare daily.Maya KitchenTo put the fun back into packed lunches, the Maya Kitchen has come up with great meal ideas that are practical and full of flavor and variety. You can find a ton of delicious dishes that you can try at www.mayakitchen.com, and we’ve picked three to help you get started.

A fantastic choice is this take on a Korean favorite – the Veggie Bibimbap in Sesame Soy Chili. Filling and flavorful, this dish with rice, mushrooms, toasted sesame seeds, and stir-fry vegetables can also be assembled and layered in one container that’s convenient to tote around.

Looking for a light and easy lunch? Try the Whole-Wheat Crabsticks Salad Wrap. A yummy combination of green and red lettuce, carrots, cucumbers, and crab sticks in a wrap using MAYA Whole Wheat “Think Heart” Pancake Mix.

If you love sushi, you’ll love this homemade twist on the Japanese menu staple. The Easy Cucumber Spam Musubi layers Spam slices, Japanese rice, and eggs into scrumptious bite size pieces. Seasoned with authentic ingredients readily available at the supermarket, it’s a great dish to savor and share.

You can find even more recipes on the website, but if you’re seriously considering levelling up on your cooking skills, why not join the Maya Kitchen’s basic culinary workshops to learn from the best in the country.
