Vella Aval / Sweet Poha - A Tribute to A Wonderful Blogger

          Two days back I heard this sad and shock news from Priya's Blog , that Jayasree of Kailas Kitchen was no more and passed away this October 12 because of pneumonia. I never knew Jayasree before but her space Kailas Kitchen was well known to me . One can find all sorts of recipes and  includes more authentic and regional recipes also. I shared this sad news with V and we both talked about, the loss to her family and friends. Really they miss Her a lot. No one can compensate this May God give strength to her Family and I pray God to let Her Soul rest in Peace.
            
        I too want to join this tribute and to honor her Memory, I tried Vella Avil from her space. This is so easy to prepare and a quick naivedyam. Check out the link for original and detailed recipe...

Broccoli Lemon Poha

       
             Now-a-days my kids love poha more and they feel more comfortable ..for me also its easy n quick to prepare..its really a very tough job for me to feed them vegs..now they become Toddlers and started saying big "NO" to all vegs n greens. Particularly a strong hatred towards Broccoli,becoz of its green color..Sanjay use to say its green color Mummy, so it will be spicy.. i don't want that :) So i have to try n experiment new varieties n combo to feed them easily.Mango poha n Spinach Poha were fruitful,they loved it ..so this time tried lemonee poha with broccoli florets ,nuts,raisins n few mini sweet peppers. Result was awesome n they eat broccoli also. Hope you too like this recipe...

Spinach Poha / Poha With Spinach / Aval Upma with Palak

Poha / Aval Upma is our favorite breakfast. Like me my kids also love Poha Upma, so I make this quick and easy to make upma often for our breakfast or for evening snack. I had very little quantity of spinach sitting in the fridge after using some for ragi keerai pakoda. I don't know what to do with the very small quantity, Suddenly a thought came why not to add it in my simple poha upma and thus this Spinach Poha Recipe and we all loved it. It turned out to a healthy and yummy breakfast. I served spinach poha along with coconut chuntey. So next time when you make poha upma try adding spinach or any available greens. Definitely kids will love to have them for a filling and healthy breakfast. Now to the recipe...
