Golden Fried Rice

  Golden Fried Rice gets its name from the fact that the rice is coated with the egg yolks. Cooked and cooled rice are a good source of resistant starch which helps in good gut health and in weight loss. Golden egg fried rice is an excellent way to have a protein & fibre rich meal for the whole family. I have used iluppai poo chemba rice in this recipe, its hand pound and is a traditional variety of rice. I also used coconut aminos as a healthier alternative to soy sauce.

Hence, ideal for students and bachelors. Avocado or butterfruit is a good source of healthy fats, magnesium and many other vital nutrients.

Enroute we stopped at a road side shop and that was when my husband asked me whether I have seen butter fruit. Incidentally, the place we stopped had a harvest and it was butter fruit every where. That was my first encounter with Avocado and then later on while living in Mercara, Coorg; I had the occasion of enjoying them even more.  This sandwich filling is similar to the Mexican guacamole and is one of my husband's favourit

Bulletproof Cocoa Recipe - How To Make Bulletproof Cocoa - Weight Loss Keto Recipes

  Bulletproof cocoa is one of my favourite ways to get some #fatfirst in the morning. I am a chocolate lover and this bulletproof cocoa is divine and it helps me enjoy my fat first in the morning. Having a good source of healthy fat helps in hormonal health, gut health, weight loss, satiety, and prevents sugar cravings. I am a big fan of Dave Aspery and though his bulletproof recipe is way too calorie dense for me, I developed this version to suit my taste and preference.  I did try Dave's full on bulletproof recipe but that kept me off my breakfast and it is way too calorie dense for me.  I mean, I want to enjoy breakfast!! hence I created this bulletproof cocoa which is just right for me.

I do this when I am travelling, I use 20 -25 gms of fat and that keeps me full till lunch time and I can forgo breakfast when on the go. Another thing which I really like about bulletproof is that it
