Скачать или смотреть Palak Khichadi | Quinoa | High Protein Meal | Healthy recipes | PCOS Diet | Weight loss dinner

From my kitchen garden to plate - High protein palak tofu quinoa khichadi. Khichadi has always been my go-to dinners when I’m looking forward to have something light and easy to make. Today when I harvested some palak from my terrace garden I decided to add it to the Khichadi, where I also added tofu for some extra protein. So traditionally khichadi is made with rice and different choices of dal, so I replaced rice with quinoa to make it a protein rich meal. Well, it all ended up into a super healthy nourishing and high protein dinner.

Also, my search for some good quality handcrafted tofu in Bangalore has finally ended. All thanks to @livingfood.co
