Veggie Pro-take

        I coined the term 'pro-take' and it stands for protein intake. The argument with veggies is that we don't get sufficient proteins in our diet.  The actual question is - do veggies prefer more carbohydrate intake than proteins? Reality says yes. Veggies might argue that they don't need that much protein compared to the carbohydrates, but nevertheless isn't balanced diet the ultimate goal.             A good source of protein can be any of these: whole grains,       beans,        soy foods,        nuts and seeds  broccoli,        spinach,        yogurt,       walnuts,        peanuts  cauliflower,        peas,       kale,       lentils,      paneer     ...

As a foodie, my experimentation with different dishes never stops! New addition is 'Chole curry'.  My lunch today    + Chole curry with red rice - my preparation   + Salads (Tomato, carrots and onion with a pinch of lemon juice on top of it)   + Jamoon - Prepared by my mom   + Chilli chutney - Prepared by unknown :-) The best part of any dish is when it is served right. I tried my best presentation. Red rice has always been my favorite as its more nutritious than white one.   I just enjoyed the sumptuous meal!!!  Happy eating....and always 'LOVE THY FOOD'.
