Hello Friends,

   Today I am here to share with you a healthy vegan recipe," Spinach with mixed vegetables and lentil dumplings"; winter already arrived and, I can remember very clearly when I was a kid, I suppose to hate eating vegetables.

As a kid, I was also starting to believe that; if I eat spinach, then I will also become as strong as Popeye. Now when I recall those days, I can understand my mother's point of view. Miss you maa(mom). I always pray to God that, in every life I want you as my mother.
