1.  Shredded Chicken Avocado Salad

Ingredients

Chicken400gms (boiled deboned and shredded)
Avocado1 medium-size peeled and roughly chopped
Bell peppers1 cup chopped into 1cm cubes (I have taken red and green bell peppers; you can also use yellow if you want)
Sweet corn1 cup
Pepper powder 1tsp
Lime juice 1tsp
Rock salt 1tsp  (you can use table salt as well)
Rosemary and Olive oil 1tsp

Method

In a large bowl add the shredded chicken, avocado, bell peppers, corn, olive oil, lime juice, pepper powder, rosemary, and rock salt. Mix them all very well so that all the flavours are incorporated well. Chill it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This salad tastes best when cold. Enjoy an avocado chicken salad with the bread of your choice or as it is.

Preparation time is 15 minutes.
Assembling the salad takes 10 minutes. Serves 4

2. Watermelon Salad

Watermelon3 cups
Mint leaves1/2 cup⁠⠀

Lemon juice1/2 cup⁠⠀
Feta cheese1 cup⁠⠀
Black olives or black grapes3/4 cup⁠⠀

Cut watermelon into cubes. Chop the mint leaves⁠. Chop onions and soak them in lemon juice for 1 hour. After an hour, strain the lemon juice out. Chop the olives, if using. If you’re using black grapes, you may chop them in half or use them whole. Combine watermelon, mint, and onions. Sprinkle feta cheese on top and add olives or black grapes or blueberries. Mix together and serve.😍⠀

3. Oatmeal Porridge

Ingredients

rolled oats1 cups
milk2 cups
sugar/jaggery or as per taste1/2 tsp
cardamom2 pods, crushed
Some dry fruitsI have used almonds, cashews, a few walnuts, sunflower seeds, cranberries and raisins

Method

Heat a pan, add the milk, cardamom pods, oats and cook for a minute or two. Add sugar or jaggery, dry fruits, and cook for 3-4 minutes. Or you can cook the oats with the milk, jaggery/sugar, and cardamom and add dry fruits of your liking on top as a garnish. I don’t put too much sugar as the dry fruits are sweet.
👉Note: Take out the cardamom pods before serving. Serve warm. Enjoy!🥄 .     

4. Chia Seed Pudding

Ingredients

Milk/Coconut milk 2 cups
Chia seeds¼ cup
Mango 2 cups chopped
Maple syrup/Honey/Jaggery powder 3 tbsp

Method

In a jar/glass/bowl, mix milk/coconut milk, chia seeds, and 1 tablespoon maple syrup/honey/jaggery powder. Cover and refrigerate overnight. The chia seeds will swell up and plump up to a jelly-like consistency. They will absorb most of the milk or coconut milk, whichever you’re using, and form a thick pudding. To serve, fill a wide glass or a parfait glass three-fourths with chia pudding and top with mangoes or a fruit of your choice. You can also layer fruit and chia seed pudding- one layer fruit, then chia pudding, and then a top layer of fruit- your choice! Garnish with grated coconut or pumpkin seeds and serve chilled. This proportion serves 2 people.

Note: you can also omit the sugar part completely. Your pudding will still taste delicious with the natural sweetness of milk or coconut milk and fruit. Enjoy😍
