Eating Guide:

Food group: Vegetables
Vegetables are highly alkalising foods, helping our bodies balance our internal pH. A good dose of the vegetables food group ensures, we provide the right material to the body to cleanse and nourish our bodies. Ideally, it is better to retain the water content of veggies, which grilling and baking may destroy. But eating for pleasure (we call it food for mind) is equally important, so we have improvised this recipe in a healthful way.
