Kobij ni Kachumbar

Kobij ni kachumbar, Sev tameta and phulkas

When my MIL shared her recipe of cabbage salad, she meant just green cabbage and green bell peppers. But I thought, adding purple cabbage and colorful bell peppers will add more excitement. These days, Gudiya has announced "Eat Your Colors" plan, as her teachers have been telling the kids about healthy eating habits.
