I Gifted Him My Signature Accessory : A Smile

What's in a smile?

Well, a smile has an amazing curative power that can heal every wound. Making someone smile and brightening their day is one of the most generous things one can do. And when this smile is an innocent one coming from your li'l one, no other joy can fill your heart with the biggest contentment. After a new life is born out of your flesh, you strive to see him smile and the day when he gives you one for the first time becomes the most memorable day of your life. Almost subconsciously, you promise to yourself to give up everything in life to make his smile stick on his face forever and ever...

Quite often, I am burdened with my work commitments and do not get much time to devote to my family..oh! it hurts my li'l boy when he seeks my attention and finds me occupied with my assignments. I feel miserable to see him sad and disheartened, but barely can do any compromise in my work :( 

Recently I brought some tasty McCain snacks home and handed over the packs to my boy who loves having crunchy eatables with his evening dose of milk. 

I guess you all can imagine how this foodie could have felt holdingthis big pack of many variants of McCain Snacks. 

Every single day is now a feast at my home. I feel its pretty easy thing to put a smile on someone face by serving him the food of his liking. I have been enjoying his naughty yet creative ideas on how to present his McCain snacks in different ways every time. 

A variety of delicious seasoned chunks on his plate just make him go crazy..look at the mischief-monger ..

OMG!! It can't be tolerated that any of the McCain snacks' variants gets over coz how would he satiate the hungry monster hidden in his li'l tummy ;)  

But mommy has the guts not to get your smile disappear from your face baby.. So here goes our McCain artistic creation to freshen up your mood :) 

aww, the taste of these crispy snacks is as good as the love hidden in my hug or a kiss to my boy. A golden bite is here to make our life sunny and dictate another chapter of childhood stories with McCain :)

Taste Ka Naya Magic With McCain

The pure bond of brothers and sisters is being celebrated tomorrow. Each one of us would be busy dressing up, setting up the center stage for your sibling and ofcourse making a list of gifts you gonna demand from your loving bro ;) Whats better than to please your sibling with some homemade recipes instead of going out. Many Rakhi recipes can be prepared a day or two in advance so that you may spend quality time with your brother or sister.
My li'l brother who is actually 'little' for me because he came to this world more than a decade later after I did ;) Now treating him like my baby is much obvious. This boy I am talking about is so fond of spicy food that he gives me no chance to prepare some homemade sweets for him. That's why this time I have decided to surprise him with the kind of snacks he enjoys...

I have got my hands on some tasteful products from McCain which would replace the tradition dishes on my menu to celebrate #RakhiWithMcCain. 

Ingredients:
McCain Veggie Finger 1 pc.
McCain Aloo Tikki 1 pc.
McCain Potato Cheese Shotz 6 pcs.
Corns 1/4 cup (Boiled)
Tomato 1 (small sized)
Green Capsicum 1 (small sized)
Oil to fry

Steps:
Heat oil in a pan and deep fry all variants of McCain products till they turn golden brown. It will take almost 3 minutes to get ready. Now place the McCain Aloo Tikki in the center of the plate and McCain Potato Cheese Shotz as its petals. McCain Veggie Finger can be used as the stem of the plant. Now decorate this cute McCain flower with tomato slice cut into semi-circles, corns and capsicum slices slit lengthwise.

Ingredients for Cocktail Sauce
1 tbps tomato ketchup
3 tbsp mayonnaise
2 cloves of garlic (peeled and pressed)
Salt to taste
Black pepper to taste
Oregano to taste

Mint Leaves (as per liking)

Steps:

Mix ketchup and mayonnaise in a bowl. Add salt, pressed garlic, pepper powder and oregano in the mixture as per your taste. Chop mint leaves finely and add in the bowl.(You may grind the mint leaves as per your preference). Blend evenly all the ingredients for bringing out the taste and aroma. Pour the cocktail sauce in a clean bowl and garnish with mint leaves. 

Serve the beautifully decorated McCain floral snack preparation  to your sibling with yummy sauce.

Now why I picked only McCain products...My brother is very choosy about food items and runs away from most veggies. He avoids even tasting food with aromatic ingredients like garlic. But with McCain, he felt simply irresistible to refuse this delicious combination of mashed potatoes, chopped veggies seasoned lightly with spices of his fav flavours.

The quick snacks recipes indeed succeeded me winning my sibling's heart by giving preference to his taste and choice. I am feeling special to give a twist to my celebration of #RakhiWithMcCain.
