Idli / Dosa with Soup.. thats a new thought 🙂 Kids surely have their way or letting us know whats on their mind, right ? comforting bowl of Soup, there !
Such a healthy soup. When I make Lentil soup, my kids sometimes eat it with rice as well. They also see it as a way of eating dhal chawal 🙂 One dish couple of ways to eat! I love the addition of Pudina powder. Did you make it at home?
I love the color of that soup. Glad your little one tasted it. My one doesn’t eat anything made with moong dal.
That is one protein & flavor packed soup. Lovely color.
