I feel little down to write this post because my favorite SNC Challenge has come to an end. SNC challenge started in october 2012 with a delicious challenge "Bhel puri" by Shruti . Divya Pramil, from youtoocancokindianfood is our brain child of SNC challenge and she carried this healthy challenge all these years as her baby. I know how she loved this SNC and we all were like a family members. I am very lucky to be in part of this group from the beginning of SNC Journey and got lots of lovely friends. So this group is very close to my heart and wish our SNC comes back soon. Thank you so much for creating such a healthy challenge between South and North team. This helped us to learn lots of unknown delicious North Indian recipes. And also Thank you for giving me an opportunity to host my favorite recipe "Kondakadalai Pidi Karunai Kara Kuzhambu".
And coming to August month challenge, South team members were challenged by Gavachi Kheer by Manjula from DesiFiesta. This is a Maharashtra famous healthy kheer prepared with whole wheat and rice.
