The holy month of Shravan has come to us, bringing with it a fresh sense of peace and dedication. For a lot of people, this is a time to fast and think about their spirituality. But in today’s society, the traditional Sattvik diet for fasting comes with a new problem: how can you make sure your meals are not just pure, but also full of the nutrients you need to stay energised?
You don’t have to pick between being devoted and being healthy. You can have both! We’re combining old knowledge with new-age superfoods to make dishes that are both spiritual and healthy. Let’s look at some unique Sattvik Superfood Recipes for Shravan Fasting that are great for the modern devotee.
The Perfect Blend: Purity and Power
Purity, simplicity, and balance are the main ideas behind the Sattvik diet. It focuses on healthy foods that don’t include onions or garlic in them. This used to signify a small menu most of the time. But now, a lot of strong superfoods, including quinoa and chia seeds, fit neatly into this paradigm. They are naturally gluten-free, easy to digest, and full of protein, fibre, and important minerals. This makes them a great choice for staying energized throughout a fast.
New-Age Recipes for an Energised Shravan
Here are some colourful, modern meals that add superfoods to your fasting menu:
Try a healthy Quinoa Khichdi for a new twist on an old comfort food. Just replace the rice with quinoa and cook it with soaked moong dal, ginger, green chillies, and your favourite vegetables that are good for fasting, such as potatoes and carrots. Add some rock salt and a little cumin to taste. This supper in one pot is full of protein and fibre, so it is very filling and good for you.
Chia Seed Pudding is a great choice for a tasty and easy dessert or snack. Just soak chia seeds in almond or coconut milk and leave them in the fridge overnight. In the morning, it will be thick and pudding-like, which is great. Add fresh fruits like bananas, berries, and a sprinkle of chopped almonds on top for a dish that is light, hydrating, and full of nutrients.
Want a tasty snack? You can make tasty patties out of sweet potatoes and quinoa. To bind the sweet potato, mash it up with cooked quinoa and a little buckwheat flour. Add chopped coriander and grated ginger, shape the mixture into tiny patties, and cook them in a little ghee. These are a better choice than regular fried nibbles because they are healthier and have more nutrients.
Make a fluffy Millet Upma for a simple but satisfying breakfast or quick lunch. Use barnyard or foxtail millets and cook them with groundnuts, curry leaves, and green chillies. It’s a healthy, warm, and comfortable meal that keeps you going for hours.
