Recently our family is trying to avoid gluten and starch intake on daily basis. We decided to switch on to healthy eating plan where we can balance the intake of gluten and starch. Queen Kunti Quinoa Pulav recipe was a great substitute for rice and wheat. It turned out so delicious that even our little Bhumikanya (almost 5 years old) ate all her belly full and didn't ask for rice and dal!!!!!
so two thumbs up form her. please try it out and see how you like it.
