Balanced diet helps improve health

The importance of balanced diet is known to all--but, not many of us follow it. I have decided to combine all the necessary elements of a balanced diet in my regular diet: Carbs, protein, vegetable portion and salad portion. Here are a few vegetarian options that you can try. They are simple, tasty and healthy.

Brown rice, dal, cucumber (salad), carrot-bell peppers-cabbage stir fry

Chapati, okra curry, brown chickpeas salad, cucumber

Hummus wrap with bell peppers and cabbage along with some cucumber

Rice, dal, okra fry and cucumber

Combine these with some buttermilk in the end

My Year in books 2023--memorable journey

I managed to read 18 books in 2023. Overall, it was an enthralling and magical experience. I almost lived with the characters in these books and in the places narrated.

Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice: Unputdownable

At the very beginning, the book transports us to Hertfordshire. The rapture in the Bennet household in Hertfordshire ensnares the readers. This is what makes the novel one of the best classics. The novel is about the Bennet family and Mrs Bennet’s sole aim to get her daughters settled in marriage with wealthy families. Mr. and Mrs. Bennet have five daughters, all good-looking and endearing.
