How I Stock Up On Antioxidants With This Simple Recipe

There is always so much going on around us and it all tends to take a toll on our health. The importance of what we eat is extremely crucial.

Our body needs antioxidants to protect and boost our immunity and health. We can actually get our antioxidants from food and not rely on medicines always. The line ‘you are what you eat’ is actually so true. What you put inside your body reflects on your skin, hair & of course your health.

This is why when we work on the KSP Meal Plan every week, we make sure that the meals are based on what is in season and what can be locally procured. #EatLocalEatSeasonal is something we strongly believe in.

Besides that, the KSP Meal Plan comes with meal ideas, exclusive recipes, tips and hacks that have been tested so you don’t need to and so much more. Don’t you think the biggest investment you need to make, is in your family’s health? So come join the KSP Meal Plan tribe TODAY!

Today I am sharing a recipe with you that has helped me through detox times, as a mid-day snack and as a meal when I feel the need to eat light – Beetroot Salad. Its got 2 ingredients which are super healthy and I love – beetroot and yoghurt

Did you know that beetroot is

• Fibre-rich
• Folate (vitamin B9)
• Manganese
• Potassium
• Iron
• Vitamin C
• Protects the liver from inflammation
• Lower blood pressure

And the dressing is made with dahi or curd which is an excellent probiotic and helps heal the gut. The spices and herbs that I have used help heal the body and restore balance.

So without further ado, let’s start cooking.

Ingredients

• Cumin Seeds/Jeera
• Curry Leaves/Kari Patta
• Coriander Leaves/Dhania Patta
• Ginger Paste
• Green Chilli Paste 
• Boiled Beetroot
• Curd
• Oil
• Salt

Method

• Chop the beetroot into bite-sized pieces
• Heat oil in a tadka pan and add the jeera & kari patta. Wait for it to splutter
• Pour this tempering into the bowl of curd and mix well
• Add the fresh coriander, ginger paste, green chilli paste and the salt 
• Put the beetroot into a bowl 
• Top it with the curd dressing just enough to coat the pieces & give it a mix
• Garnish it with fresh coriander
