Whole Moong and Spinach Gojju (Coconut-Tamarid Gravy) - Normally I try out Spinach and split yellow moong together in the form of a simple dal. I wanted to change the routine a bit this time.

I love making pilafs for weeknight dinners because it is so easy to prepare. In under 30 minutes, you can put a perfectly delicious pilaf together. And the best part is that there are a ton of ways you can innovate with the flavors by using different veggies and grains. Cooking a pilaf is also probably the easiest way to include something healthy in your diet - in any pilaf recipe swap the white rice out for a whole grain such as brown rice, millets or cracked wheat!

Radish and Channa (Chickpeas) in a tangy gravy (Kara Kuzhambu): I love Kara Kuzhambu. It is tangy and really delicious - but traditionally doesn't use a lot of veggies! Being short of time, I didn't want to prepare another vegetable side dish along with kuzhambu for dinner. I ended up with this veggie-packed version of the "kara kuzhambu"! No matter what name you choose to call it, you will love the combination of radish and tamarind :)
