Before I give you this recipe, let me tell you that this isn t an expert recommended or given by any elderly aunt unlike the palak sorba I shared with you. Instead, this was something I did all on my own when hunger pangs got the best of me on a sunday. As the name suggests, this is a simple one packed with proteins and goodness of fresh vegetables. My own addition to the salad was beetroots and a handful of boiled sprouts. Remember, during pregnancy you need to up your protein intake by at least 10 gms to meet the requirements of your body and that of your growing baby.
