The month of Sawan began today, July 4th. It will be the first Monday of July 10. The Monday fast has great significance in Sawan. This fast is thought to be able to grant wishes if it is completed with integrity and in accordance with the rules and regulations. Therefore, if you're also keeping a fast, here are some delicious and healthy options.
Lord Shiva is the recipient of the entire Sawan month, which is why it is devoted to him. Because of this, the significance of fasting on Sawan Mondays greatly increases. The month of Lord Shiva will begin this year on July 4 and end on August 31.
There are eight Monday fasts during this period of Sawan. Sawan Monday worship has special significance. Fasting on this day and worshipping the Shiva Linga with water, jaggery, Akshat, Belpatra, and Bhang-Dhatura pleases Lord Shiva. When devotees observe Sawan Somvar Vrat, they receive special blessings from Lord Shiva. If you are fasting on Sawan Monday, you should pay particular attention to your food and drink during this period, especially for those who are fasting for the first time and those who are not accustomed to going without food for an extended period of time.
Although it is widely believed that fasting improves health, many people actually consume foods that are detrimental to health during fasts, such as puris, halwas, and kheer. These cause a significant increase in body fat and calories. In addition to samak kheer, paneer kofta, potato curry, and sago namkeen, there are many other foods that serve only one purpose: to make you eat more calories. Therefore, we have developed a few of these quick-to-prepare, healthy options for you today.
Samak Rice Casserole
Samak rice can be used to make a variety of dishes while you're fasting, but if you want to eat it in a healthy way, pulav is your best bet. Choose your favorite seasonal fruits and vegetables to add to it. The preparation time for this casserole is only 15 minutes.
Sago Khichdi
One of the most popular options for fasting is sabudana khichdi. Without much fanfare, add curry leaves and cumin seeds to the pan. Sabudana that has been soaked overnight should be added after lightly frying the peanuts. You won't get hungry anytime soon after eating this, and it also gives you energy.
Makhana kheer
Makhana contains a lot of nutrients, and milk is also very nutritious, so you can make kheer out of it. Simply limit the amount of sugar you add to the kheer to make it healthy. Jaggery would be a better choice.
