I'm a DC-ite by way of Miami of Indian origin who now lives in Rockville, Md. I'm a public health analyst, vegetarian, a yoga-phile, a relatively new wife, and a new mom. How do all of these things tie together? They don't really. Or maybe they do, I'm not really sure. But between working, taking care of a new baby, attempts at spending some time with my wonderful husband, and trying to keep the house somewhat clean, I know that this doesn't leave me with a whole lot of time to cook nutritious meals every night. Yet, I manage to. And so can you. I thought I'd start this blog because, really, it is very easy to make a fresh, nutritious meal every night- almost the same amount of time it would take you to make dinner out of a box anyway. It just takes a little bit of thought and some planning.
In this blog you'll find everything is completely vegetarian and many are Indian or Indian-inspired- because this is the food I grew up with and still love. It is a misconception that Indian food is always really spicy or extremely time consuming to make. It just requires a little practice is all. But not everything in here is Indian. Because though my roots are in India, I was born and raised in the good old U.S., which means every 3rd night or so I get a hankering for pizza, pasta, and anything BUT Indian food.
In other words, there really is no central theme to this blog except that I wholeheartedly believe that cooking does not have to be hard. It can be easy, fast, nutritious, and delicious- which is something I'd like to pass on to my kids, the way my mom passed it on to me. So, Enjoy- or at least have a good laugh at another working mom just trying to make it through the day:)
