Self-Taught Vegan Chef :: Food Network Champion :: TV Host
Do you ever just wake up with a sudden sweet craving and in your mind you’re screaming “I WANT EFFING PANCAKESSS & WAFFLES AND SYRUP DRIPPING EVERYWHERE” – and I ain’t talking about Jack Johnson’s banana pancakes (get those white boy pancakes outta here). This is exactly what happened to me this morning – heck, …
I don’t understand why we only have one day to celebrate the Earth. We live on it 24/7/365 days a year, so I don’t understand why we wouldn’t celebrate it everyday. I don’t make the rules, but I sure can do my best to break ’em! I’m trying to live a more sustainable life everyday …
When I was in Thailand a couple of years ago, there were so many cool noodle dishes that were a hell of a lot more than just Pad Thai – don’t get me wrong, I had my delicious fair share of Pad Thai cause it was amazing there. But I saw a lot of cool …
By now you should know my obsession with pasta alternatives, i.e., pastas that are made out of different legumes rather than starch, so I can freely stuff my face with “pasta,” but be healthy at the same time! The geniuses at Banza have created a new addition to their line of pasta alternatives – a …

Mexico City or CDMX is a hot spot now! Every other weekend, I know someone new visiting there! Why?

I visited …
Move over Halal Guys – I got a simple and delish Middle-Eastern inspired meal thats perfect for a ANY day of the year (see what I did there, ha). After Indian and some Asian cuisine, I’ve always felt that Middle-Eastern food has the most vegan options. I was feeling inspired this weekend and put together …
I grew up eating vodka sauce as much as I ate my moms homemade chapati. As I’ve mentioned several times before, Italian food is just as important in my life as Indian food given my childhood in good ole’ Staten Island. Vodka sauce is the best – creamy, garlicky, just a hint of tomato but …
As 2018 comes to a close – well, considering it’s the last day and I’m a bit of a procrastinator we can safely say it’s pretty much complete – I wanted to take a moment to recap on all of the food things! A lot of things happened this year, in the Chef Pri world …
PSA: This is Chef Priyanka’s LAST recipe of 2018! Yup, isn’t it crazy to think that in less than a week we are going to start a whole new year?! I can easily say, I’m not mentally prepared for that. But to celebrate whatever days are remaining of 2018, I’ve created a festive, Indian-inspired, sparkly …
I’ve said this a couple of times over the past week, but I love using the Holiday time to create new vegetarian/vegan recipes. Thanksgiving is never big in my house, as my entire family (aside from my immediate family) are in India. And from a personal standpoint, well let me not get started as to …
