Who doesn't love this yummy and creamy spinach with paneer (Indian cheese) or tofu ?! It’s Cindy’s favorite!
You can make it with firm or extra firm tofu for a fully plant based dish (PB) or with paneer if vegetarian (VG). Paneer is often available in many grocery stores.
Note from Cindy: It's very easy to make paneer cheese at home, using whole milk and vinegar! The process is easy, but it does take a bit of time - a great project for a rainy day! Here is my go-to recipe is here: https://www.indianhealthyrecipes.com/how-to-make-paneer-cubes-at-home/

Masala Mystique
I come from a long line of foodies – we talk about food all the time! Inspired by my mother’s traditional recipes, I am passionate about cooking and love introducing delicious Indian vegetable dishes to friends. It is, most likely, the original plant-based cuisine!
When my daughter went away to college, she missed Indian cooking, but didn’t want to have to buy spices she wouldn’t use often. So I started giving her little spice packs and instructions for specific dishes. Before I knew it, word spread and I had requests from her friends and even mine. And that was the spark of a business idea.
I spent my career in the technology world. Beyond my passion for food, I am committed to creating access to early technology education for students with limited resources. It levels the playing field and it is my personal mission to support programs equipping these children for the digital economy of the future. A majority of our profits will go to supporting educational initiatives for underserved students.
Masala Mystique brings it all together, by helping you succeed in cooking delicious Indian food, without buying a hundred confusing spices, only to use one spoonful. We’ve taken my mother’s traditional recipes, made them easy to follow, and given you just the right mix and amount of spices to create delicious dishes at home. And, you're helping underserved students to prepare for their digital futures with each tasty bite.
