I have an obsession with Nutella. Then again, who doesn’t?! If you don’t like Nutella, then I’m sorry to this, there’s definitely something wrong with you. Anyways, one Sunday morning I was really craving a smoothie or drink of some sorts that contained Nutella. However, being that Nutella isn’t the healthiest of items in …
Right before the Holidays I received my first Chefpriyanka Cupcake order!! I wish I had time to write this post earlier, but better late than never!

Sprinkles Cupcakes is considered the first (solely) cupcake bakery in the world and is originated in California. I had …
Yesterday September 23rd, 2012 marks the 2nd year since I’ve started Chef Priyanka- already!! I feel old. But over these past 2 years I’ve generated more than 120 recipes- pretty crazy huh? I wish I had time to create more and cook more, but I make do with the time I have! So I would …
Sometimes I like to step away from traditional recipes and cooking. Wait, who am I kidding!? That’s pretty much what I do majority of the time. My mom recently bought me some groceries (yesss wonderful feeling) and one of the items I had requested was some baby spinach. When I came home from work one …
