Here are four amazing maggi recipes that you must try - Italian Maggi, Cheese and Egg Maggi, Chinese Maggi and Spicy Masala Maggi for all you Maggi lovers!
If you've grown up in India you've probably grown up eating Maggi for a snack! I am such a huge fan of these Instant Noodles that I get cravings even today. Which is weird I know because I'm 35 but you are never too old for Maggi Noodles!

And if you've grown up eating Maggi you've obviously experimented with it. Everyone I know has their favourite way of eating Maggi and I knew I had to share my favourite Maggi recipes with you guys. I mean how can I authentically be a good food blogger if I don't. Because indulging in Maggi once in a while just feels so good. It's not the best thing in the world to eat - I admit but it's like that second slice of chocolate cake that you know you can't resist.
Italian Alfredo Maggi
So first up is my version of an Italian Maggi. Not all of these versions use the Maggi Tastemaker because sometimes we just don't need it (read: sometimes we use two Tastemaker packets for one cake of Maggi cause we like with extra masala), irrespective of how awesome it is. I use everyday ingredients like all purpose flour, butter and milk to make this my own version of Alfredo Maggi. This one uses mushrooms and olives but go ahead, make this your own! Add some chicken to your Maggi and make it Italian Chicken Maggi or some broccoli. Or do this in store bought red pasta sauce instead of white. Every way possible, Maggi still tastes great!

Italian Alfredo Maggi recipe has all the flavors of your favorite Alfredo pasta with lots of mushrooms, olives, basil and cheese.

Cheese and Egg Maggi
Third on the list is Cheesy Egg Maggi which is a big favorite in the house. Its super simple to make but because of its cheese factor it's always the first one to call dibs on. Go ahead and spice things up with some shredded cooked chicken or even sausages which would be sooo good in this version!
