Its been a long, i posted foods prepared with my favourite grain 'Oats', here is my recent comforting and favourite food i prepared just for our lunch yesterday. Usually i make this type of dal khichdi with rice and dals whenever i feel lazy to cook as it goes for quick and easy breezy preparation. This time i combined veggies, oats together in this dal khichdi and used cooked moongdal instead of toordal or masoor dal.You can simply have this nutritious,filling and colourful khichi with a pickle or else with few fried papads. You can also replace the oats with wheat rava, quinoa or brown rice for preparing the same khichdi if you dont want to prepare them with oats.
This nutritious khichdi suits prefectly for breakfast,lunch and for dinner too.As i used moongdal and whole black peppers in this healthy khichdi,am sending this wonderful dish to Kalyani's Magic Mingle,Ramadan Friendly Recipes by Halal Foodie and to my own event Healthy Diet-Cooking with Whole grains guest hosted by Jaya.
