Macaroni cooked in Indian style with our Desi spices and finally topped with cheese. It is a quick meal idea and addition of cheese is just optional. It is added to make kids love it more. Yummy cheesy Macaroni that is a must try one. And I have not added anything to it except Onions and loads of Sliced Olives both Green and Black. That's the reason I have named it so. But you can very well add any Veggies of your choice. The only thing to do is to make this in our Desi style with our spices. Basically whole idea is being giving it a Desi touch. Our Indian touch to it which makes it all the more delectable and yummy. I have chosen Elbow Macaroni for this. That's it. Let's get started. Happy Cooking with Zee!

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
