Peppered Carrot & Capsicum Rice

Time flies super fast, here comes already our third week of blogging marathon of this month, as i told earlier Srivalli is doing an amazing job in selecting the themes and am truly enjoying it. Coming to this 3rd week, i choosed the theme 'cooking from BM bloggers', this theme means a lot for me. Coz i really want to try many dishes from the other buddies running blogging marathon with me.

For this week i choosed to cook three wonderful dishes from PJ's Seduce Your Tastebuds, i love her blog very much and i never failed to visit her space. Seriously love her cooking style, she always come up with healthy dishes. For the first day, i choosed to cook under the theme 30minutes meal from Pj's space and went on searching in her space. The first dish i got hooked is this peppered carrot & capsicum rice, this dish goes for a super quick and easy breezy preparation and suits prefectly as a lunch box menu.Simply loved the simplicity of this healthy as well as flavourful one pot meal. Thanks to PJ for sharing this yummy rice, do check out the other bloggers running this 19th edition of blogging marathon here.
