This spicy fried potato recipe can be used for making a morning snack for breakfast in combination with a bread or paratha.

Now it took a bit of trying and retrying to get the flavor and texture just right, but I think I've got it! The following ingredients are key: Of course, it is rather obvious that one can't have honey baked beans without the honey. I like the brand that comes in the little huggy bear bottle with the yellow top. I found that it is thicker and sometimes sweeter than other brands.

I have a weak spot for pancakes. I think it goes back to childhood. When I was growing up my parents both hated going to places like The Original Pancake House or Denny's (which is where, in my opinion, they served the absolute best pancakes!)

Anyway, pancakes and I go way back. But these days[..]

The meal contains a lot of vegetables, and can therefore be view as healthy from that point of view. However,[..]
