Steamed Spinach Rolls filled with Mashed potato
About:
I’ll use just about any excuse to work more dark leafy greens like Spinach, Fenugreek and kale etc., into my diet. I blend them into smoothies, shred them for salads and add them to almost every soup I make.
My newest obsession is using the leaves in place of tortillas and wraps to enclose favourite filling.
Health benefits:
Like other dark greens, spinach is an excellent source of beta-carotene, a powerful disease-fighting antioxidant that’s been shown, among other things, to reduce the risk of developing cataracts. It fights heart disease and cancer as well. Spinach also contains lipoic acid, which is being investigated for regulating blood sugar levels.

Italian Knot whole wheat Garlic bread
About:
This is a classic Italian snack, garlic knots are strips of pizza dough tied in. Here in this recipe to make knots I used whole wheat flour in the dough and olive oil and olive spread but feel free to use plain flour and butter if desired. Plain flour definitely gives a soft texture inside and easy to handle but using wheat flour makes it healthy and without much compromising in taste- crusty on outside, soft inside and the garlic olive oil soaked flavour.
Enjoy this during the evening snacks or even on the party tables with Italian platter.
I served this with baked mushroom pasta casserole(link)
