A Carrot a Day !!

Vegetable markets these days are flooded with fresh and juicy carrots , both the long reddish ones and smaller orange Mahableshwar carrots. Considering the very many interesting ways in which carrots can be consumed and their multiple health benefits, this is the best time to make carrots a part of our daily diet and enjoy them through the day! 

While carrots have multiple health benefits, what inspires me to consume them is that they improve eye sight,  are good for skin and cleansing of the body. I begin my day with a freshly squeezed glass of carrot juice, either by itself or with beetroot or tomato. Have carrots as part of my lunch, enjoy a carrot pickle with my dal chawal at lunch, often have a carrot soup pre-dinner and a carrot methi sabzi with roti for dinner. And when I feel indulgent , I wind it all up with a bowl of delicious gajar halwa. 

I hope my diet inspires you to start having a liberal dose of carrots everyday and keep healthy !
