#goodfoodguide In many parts of the world, a healthy appetite is an indicator of a happy life. A full platter of food is a sign of prosperity and wealth. . . Unfortunately, now a healthy lifestyle is misinterpreted as a punishment and penance. Instead of running after fad diets and calorie counting, embrace holistic living. Not only do you practice fitness, but you also nourish your body with a plethora of colors, tastes and smells. Food empowers your body, mind, heart and soul. Don’t treat food like your enemy. . . Life is beautiful. Live it to the fullest. Don’t wallow in self-pity, insecurity and misery. And go ahead, and check out these delicious spreads from L’ETO Caffe. 😍 #veggieworld . .

#indianbeauty One of the most beautiful and delicate parts of an Indian woman’s shringar (traditional attire/adornment) is the jewelry of the feet. The “Cham-Cham” of anklets has been featured in many Bollywood songs for its romantic and sensual appeal. Here, the payal (anklets) and bichiya (toe rings) are from the Chowri Bazaar of Jaipur, India. Like a lot of Indian jewelry, Jaipur artisans have also seen the influence of ancient India as well as foreign invasions. So, one can discover a diversity of designs to choose from. . . Also, thanks to Tips and Toes for the amazing vegan pedicure. My feet feel and look amazing! And I am loving my “Cham-Cham”! ❤️ #feelingbeautiful #citizensoftnt

#festivalsofindia Pongal is the winter harvest festival celebrated by Tamil Hindus of Southern India. It corresponds with the start of the Tai month of the Tamil calendar and offers to the sun god, Lord Surya, for agricultural abundance. . . #vegetariancooking One of the traditional dishes made only during Pongal is the Ezhukari Kootu/Pongal Kootu. This complicated dish is made with a tamarind base, and includes a number of local country vegetables (usually 7), steamed toor dal (lentils), ground spices, as well as tempered spices like mustard seeds, fenugreek seeds, curry leaves and asafetida. These are the vegetables Amma used for #pongal2020 . . French Beans Peas Cauliflower Taro Potato Carrot White Pumpkin Eggplant Mango Totes

#incredibleindiaofficial January in India marks the start of the winter harvest festivals like Lohri, Makar Sakranti and Pongal. They celebrate the shift in the sun’s position, marking the start of longer daylight hours. Each festival marks a different community’s way of giving thanks to Lord Surya, the sun god, and welcoming the prospect of a good harvest. On this occasion, Amma has made South India’s famous sweet Rava Kesari. This hot dessert is great for winters and is primarily made of rava (semolina/sooji). Dry fruits like cashewnuts, pistachios, almonds and raisins are dry roasted in ghee. Condiments include jaggery (substitute for sugar), cardamom powder and saffron threads. #indiandessert #vegetarianlife

#vegetarianrecipe I love experimenting with new vegetables just to get my creative juices going and to give my family something new and delicious to try. . . Purple cabbage, also known as red cabbage, is not native to India. The only thing that came to mind is sauerkraut, which I detest. So I decided to cook it the Indian way, complete with grating, curry leaves, cumin seeds and masala powders.😍 . . There are many benefits to purple cabbage: . . 1. Purple cabbage is low in calories yet a good source of fiber and vitamins A, C, K, and B6. It also contains small amounts of other vitamins and minerals. . . 2. Purple cabbage offers one of the highest amounts of health-promoting antioxidants per unit cost. . . 3. Purple cabbage may help fight inflammation and reduce accompanying symptoms, such as pain, swelling, and discomfort. . . 4. Purple cabbage is a rich source of anthocyanins, which are beneficial plant compounds that may reduce your risk of heart disease. . . 5. Purple cabbage is rich in vitamins C and K1, both of which are essential for building and maintaining strong, healthy bones.
