We all know beetroot is a wonder food. If you are anemic or
you are weak, doctor advise you to include the beetroot in your daily diet. It
does not only help you in increasing your blood but it is rich in fiber which
keeps you full the whole day. It also has zero fats.
This vegetable was very popular in roman times and people
were custom to use this vegetable to treat fever, constipation, open wounds and
skin problems. As I said above it’s a wonder vegetable because it contains
potassium, iron, vitamin-A, B6 and C, carbohydrates, protein, antioxidants and
soluble fiber.
Beetroot is used
world over to increase the stamina and hemoglobin. Doctor advice that one
should include beetroot in their daily diet. So, this women’s day I thought of
sharing a 4 course meal which will feature the beetroot. As a women, I
understand how difficult it becomes to take care of our body post 40 years.
So let’s celebrate mother’s day with a wonder food called-Beetroot.
Here are your dinner ideas for the day.
Fresh beetroot
soup- This is a very simple yet tasty soup. Even a kid can make this
dish for his mother. This dish can be ready in 30 minutes and you only require
5 indigents for it. It’s very healthy because it’s kind of beetroot juice and
the addition of beef broth brings the zing to this dish. You can get the
complete recipe of this soup here.
Crunchy beetroot
salad- for a starter, try this crunchy beetroot salad by Jamie Oliver.
It is a very colorful salad which will bring smile on anyone’s face. Feta
cheese is really optional but it really adds some color to your dish. Also you
can try some goat cheese instead of feta cheese. You can be experimental for
this dish. Easy to make and garnish, get the full recipe of this dish here.
Roasted pan of
chicken and beetroot- again a very healthy combination. In the
traditional recipe, people also add baby carrots and potato which enhance the
nutrition value of the dish. You can give it a skip, if you desire so. This is
a crispy dish which is loved by the kids as well as adults. It takes about
40-45 minutes to cook and it is a perfect recipe for a Sunday brunch. Clickhere to get this recipe.
Delicious beetroot
halwa- this is an Indian recipe which has been told to me by my
vegetarian friend long time back. I tried it at home and I was amazed by the
taste of this amazing dish. However, it does take some time to cook this dish
but believe you me, the final outcome is beyond words. This recipe has some
fats because it is made in ghee (clarified butter) but I think once in a while
its ok to let loose yourself. Get the full recipe of this dish here.
Please let me know how you have celebrated this mother's day because it will give me some more ideas for my mother's day celebration as well. I hope you will enjoy this vegetable called-Beetroot as much as I do. Happy mother's day to all.... :)
