HEALTHY DINNER FOR WEEK : MARCH 2024
How are you ? April is started already and how life is going? Steady or with full speed? Mine is going with full speed. Mini vacation are over and school has started. Again we are busy with school, study little bit and toddlers play time. Healthy dinners are the most important part of our Indian houses. We Indian families have everyday dinner together because it is the time where we meet each other and we talk with each other. This was the scene of our childhood lives. Many of you agreed with it. But, In my house dinner time is where we strictly off the screens whether it is big or small screens and talk over the meal. Dinner is the special time where we all have meals with discussion and laughter so we did it mindfully. A healthy dinner has always been my goal. Earlier there was a house help when my baby was small but now we don't have any help. So the goal is to cook food at home and have a meal with the family, which is sometimes very difficult. But with meal planning I ma
I think beets are underrated in our Indian diet though South Indian diet has some great stir-fry options using beet carrots etc.I love this paratha, in fact it adds a nice color, fiber, and nutrition to this paratha. I even add it to carrot hala for extra deep colour and we make an amaranthus beet bhaji which my kids love.
ReplyDeleteWow. Amarnath bhaji with beet I will definitely try.
DeleteBeets are a good source of iron, which is important for healthy blood and brain development in babies. Including beet carrot paratha in their diet can help meet their iron needs.

DeleteIt looks delicious ya. Thanks for the recipe, its really simple to prepare
ReplyDeleteI love beetroot, I can have anything made of beetroot, right from chips to cookies, raita to grated salads, juices and soups. I have given up on whole wheat flour, but I certainly have beetroot pancakes and I love them.
ReplyDeleteI want to try juice 😄
DeleteWow Neeta. Thank you for this healthy and yummilicious recipe. Will surely try it for my kiddos. I normally grate beetroot and add salt, pepper, lemon and eat as a salad.

DeleteI heard that these days we have beetroot flour available in the market. Will it work if I use that flour for the preparation as I would love to try this recipe. Kindly suggest
ReplyDeleteI don't know about flour. You can search whether it is healthy or not .
DeleteMy answer to your question is: I don't like beetroot Neeta😬 and I don't eat it either. I know it is really good for health but the taste n smell is a turn off for me. However, your paratha looks appetising and is a simple recipe too. I will try it. Btw, did I tell u that I tried your palak chilla n my kids loved it? I will let you know what they feel about this too.
ReplyDeleteEven I don't like it Kaveri 😁
DeleteI have made beetroot paratha. Apart from the health part of it, the taste is yummy too. Next time will add carrots too. Children also love it. Easy way to make them eat beetroot :)
ReplyDeletewow!! this recipe is perect to make kids have beetroot. thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteSuper healthy recipe, my kids do not eat beetroot and I think this is a best way to make them eat. Easy recipe but extremely healthy. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteWelcome 💜
DeleteI love beetroot and add it to my salads, soups and even pav bhaji. It's quite nutritious too so parathas are a great way to make our kids have it.
ReplyDeleteI try to salad - curd + beet one.
DeleteMy son is 8 yo now but he still loves beetroot & carrot paratha. But it's not my fav because of that sweetness it gives to the paratha, instead I add boiled potatoes to balance that. But it's a wonderful way to introduce beetroot and carrot to baby's diet.

ReplyDeleteThat's such a unique and healthy dish. Thanks for sharing the recipe. I'm not a beetroot but I guess the inclusion of carrot will make up for it.
