I am an IT professional. In midst of busy routine, I still prefer home-cooked meals over fast food or grab-n-go snacks from outside or even from my office cafeteria for that matter. Since I have always been picky with veggies, I keep on devising hacks to include more and more veggies in my meal. That's why you will find that even with most conventional recipes, I always have my own versions ;)Creativity to the rescue!!All of my cooking is "satvik" i.e. without onion-garlic & usually I try to prepare food in a quiet ambiance & with quiet mind.
