Today, we're giving this traditional West Indian favorite a nutritious twist! 🌿 Channa – Plant-based protein, fiber, iron & magnesium
🥬 Poi Bhaji – Packed with vitamins, minerals & antioxidants
🌶️ Fresh Spices – Garlic, onion, pepper, cumin & turmeric for delicious flavor
🥑 Avocado Oil – Rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats And of course, we're pairing it with my Mosi's homemade green mango achar, made with mustard oil and traditional spices! 🥭❤️ As a pharmacist, I always emphasize that healthy eating isn't about giving up the cultural foods we love. It's about making thoughtful ingredient choices, practicing portion control, and enjoying everything in moderation! Remember, even when fried in avocado oil, bara still absorbs oil, so portions matter! 🌺 Celebrating Navratri with nutritious vegetarian meals while preserving our beautiful Indo-Guyanese traditions!
