  1. hello fauzia

    your recipes are my all time favorite i have tried many of them and all went great…. especially your drinks were liked by my whole family and had been the most sought after thing during Ramadan ….refreshing to quench the thrust of hot August!!!
    i have a request please give some recipes of some macronni and olive salads that are present in Rahat salad bars as they are my husband’s favorite but i can never guess their ingredients so can not make it 🙁

  2. Hi,
    You are really great.
    I have one question, I am on Diet to lose weight. Can i have this for lunch instead of Rice and all?
    Thank you

    1. Hi, yes you can although pasta is a form of carbs too, so if you are on diet avoid pastas/rice/breads.
