Growing up in India,  our everyday Vegetarian Indian Meals have been an essential routine of our day.  Eating Healthy 3 Times meals every day, back home had a fantastic impact on our habits. This did avoid unnecessary junking, reaching out for carbonated drinks, and many more.

Sometime in April, soon after the Easter break. I shared a series of NorthIndian Thali recipes on my Sandhya's Kitchen Instagram for 10 days. These posts received some fabulous feedback.  To make it really easy for my lovely readers, I have compiled all the menu's in the post - EVERYDAY VEGETARIAN INDIAN DISHES.

What is an Indian Thali?

Our Everyday Indian Thali platter essentially comprises balanced flavors & a variety of complimenting dishes on a single plate.  Most commonly, a Thali would include Roti, Rice, Dal, Curry, Yogurt condiment and a pickle.
