Nutritionist's take
This can work as a substitute for the standard Indian meal of roti-sabji, though it's high on carbs. It includes different grains and vegetables and is a good source of micronutrients, proteins and healthy fats. The fruits add extra vitamins and minerals to this dish, and the feta will give you a protein.

A great wayto get complex low GI carbs. Coloured vegetables and herbs are one of the best ways to get micro nutrients and antioxidants. However, it is high on carbs.
