It’s one of those days where I have pushed myself to the point where I am beyond exhausted! I am happy that I managed to put together a decent / nutritious meal for the kids. I am proud that I made 2 promises to my kids & kept them both! The younger one didn’t want to nap in school and wanted to be picked up early...And the older one wanted me to play a couple of rounds of his new found favourite game. Despite everything, I managed to do both 🙂On the other hand, the house is a mess. There are dirty dishes waiting in the sink. As I lie down next to my kids and they are fast asleep (or getting there!), I am smiling because it was all worth it and I’ve had a good day 😊 Sometimes, it’s important to pause and recognise that we are doing the best we can and we deserve to pat ourselves on the back for that. #thekitchn #cauliflower #nourishyourbody #veggielover #buzzfeedfood #eatmoreveggies #dinnerisserved #inspiremyinstagram #eatbetter #plantbased #desidiaries #easymeals #lifeandthyme #eattheworld #hautecuisines #eeeeeats #indianfoodbloggers #shotoniphoneWorking towards minimising wastage... but I still have a long way to go... ** Repurposed last night’s Turkey peas keema into a semi-bolognese brown rice pasta. Added a tomato and a little ketchup to make it more saucy. Dinner was a Breeze thanks to the pasta! ** Broccoli 🥦 and carrot 🥕 soup .. slow cooked. With a dash of milk & lots of black pepper. I added some cheese for the kids but I think it tasted better without the cheese! ** I made a aglio olio brown rice pasta for myself. Very basic - lots of garlic, onions, red pepper flakes in olive oil. Finished with some fresh parsley & crushed black pepper. #honestcooking #tastefullysimple #soup #dinnerideas #homemade #cooking #gloobyfood #tastefullysimple #simplefood #foodblogfeed #foodtalkindia #beautifulcuisines #lovefood #zerowaste #flatlayfood #foodblogfeed #foodforfoodies #fusionfood #tastytuesday #vsco #eeeeeats #eatinghealthy #goodfood #mealA mixed spread for dinner tonight: - Turkey & Peas Keema spiced with a masala made of onions, garlic, ginger, tomatoes, some whole garam masala and a bit of Harissa paste for that added kick!

I got these new plates in an effort to provide a more balanced meal to the kids. It almost forces me to make sure I have something to fill in the compartments. And I realised, it doesn’t take that much extra effort. So we had a Paneer and Peas curry with Roti. Now the fillers were, a quick stir fry of zucchini with asaefetida and cumin seeds which didn’t take more than 7-8 mins to make & the big kid loved it! The other one was just avocado cut with a squeeze of lime and some salt. This is a small step towards making an effort to eat more greens and reduce food wastage. Let’s hope I’m able to keep it up and make it into a habit. #indianfood #goodfood #feedfeed #eatinghealthy #nutrition #cooking #gloobyfood #eeeeeats #bbcgoodfood #homemade #foodgasm #foodtalkindia #indianfoodlovers #tastefullysimple #desidiaries #ourplatesdaily #honestcookingA little self love goes a long way. Yoga and then a nice indulgent breakfast of aaloo kale tikkis or potato+kale cakes (?) with a side of garlicky cilantro chutney:-) THIS with a masala Chai. P.S: I seriously find it hard to translate typical Indian dishes to English 🤦♀️😂 #indianfood #selflove #yogisofinstagram #yogaforlife #bbcgoodfood #eeeeeats #beauticuisines #calm #happy #homemade #goodfood #beautifulcuisines #streetfood #foodphotography #njfoodphotographer #foodstylingSuch a beautiful place inside out with so much warmth & happy people all around! Loved hanging out here. I wanted to try the food but I had already had lunch before coming here. They were so sweet and happily gave me a taste of their beetroot and coconut soup and it was delicious!:-) They have a sister restaurant nearby and I’m surely going to try that place soon too. 💖 #eatingout #peace #veganrestaurantsnyc #vegetarian #nyc #vegetarianinnyc #goldenmilk #gratitude #weekendfinds #queens #nyc #nytfood #foodforthought #ayurveda #coffee #foodgasm #foodphotography #restaurantnyc #recommended #cozy #cafe #nyccafe #eeeeeats #vsco #food52 #foodstagram
