I’m super happy and proud of this NEW Magical Menu inspired by the Live-Action Jungle Book ❤️

A little backstory…My daughter was in Kindergarten & the moms got together after school at the park. It was a very hard time for me personally, but those mom friends helped out more than they probably even realize now. 😘

One of the mom friends, came from India, & we talked at length about our lives. She told me about India. 🥰 I still treasure those talks with that mom group.

So when I decided I wanted to do the Live-Action Jungle Book, knowing that the story takes place in a forest in India - I knew I wanted to try and provide a more realistic menu for the setting - and I knew who to reach out to for advice. She graciously shared with me ideas and foods. So thank you Nazneen ❤️ Also I had to choose 2 treats because they both looked too good not to try! 😉

➡️Menu:

✨Curry (I used @tastybite Indian Coconut Squash Dal -easy heat up and delicious!!)

✨Rice (coconut rice - and wow the flavor combination I am still craving, and the kids loved it too! Win 🙌)

✨Naan (I got a great sized bag @costco from @stonefirenaan )

✨Hummus (Love @sabra !)

✨Carrots (we used #babycarrots )

✨Cucumbers

✨Tropical Fruit (We used @dolepics since it’s a little out of season for us - it has papaya and pineapple)

✨Apples
✨Grapes

➡️Drink: ✨Lemonade

➡️Treat(s):

✨Kheer (India’s version of a rice pudding- it was good, & I’ll attach the recipe I used on the blog)

✨Carrot Halwa (Will put the recipe on the blog. FRIENDS-OH-MY-GOODNESS it was SO good!! I used dairy free -coconut evaporated milk instead, and WOW! 😋)

I’m so grateful that I have friends that share their lives with me, and have experiences with amazing different recipes so I can share them with my family and expand their worlds too.

Thank you again friends! ❤️
