Hi
For the week 1 of Bm
for this month, I chose to blog about healthy dinner recipes.We are
typical madrassi’s with a great affinity to have rice based dishes, But for
some time now we have moved to chapathi and roti for dinner hoping that it is a
healthier option. Our typical dinner is chapathi with a subzi, a glass of
buttermilk and some fruits.
