Khichdi

Khichdi — a soft, one-pot dish of rice and lentils spiced with turmeric and cumin — is considered the ultimate Ayurvedic recovery food. It's easy to digest, warming, and rich in complete protein. Whether eaten plain or cooked with vegetables and ghee, khichdi is an ideal breastfeeding meal and a beloved tradition for good reason.
