As a full-fledged career woman and a mother of two fast-growing kids, I was always on the lookout for easy and quick foods that were healthy and approved by my fussy eaters. Moreover, as my younger one was asthmatic, I also wanted foods without preservatives and artificial colours or flavours. Since none of the packaged foods satisfied these criteria, I dug up the traditional healthy recipes with locally grown ingredients that I grew up on. However, juggling between work and home, I did not have the time and leverage like my grandma to cook elaborate fresh foods day-in and day-out. So, I quit my Corporate job to research and develop these recipes into modern easy-to-consume packaged foods without preservatives and artificial flavours.
The outcome was a range of beverage meals made from sprouted millets, grains and legumes that were rich in nutrition and took on delicious flavours that were gulped down willingly by kids and adults alike. One serving of the thick shake gives good satiety and fullness for a couple of hours. Moreover, the combination of millets, grains and legumes gave a complete protein profile. Sprouting reduced the oligosaccharides by 90% and enhanced the bioavailability of iron, calcium and other micro-nutrients also increasing the anti-oxidant value of the end-product.
This product is most suited in today’s times when consumers are looking for ways to build their immunity.
In the New Normal, consumers are increasingly leaning towards preventive wellness. Moreover, the Work-from-Home environment and restrictions on outside movement have brought about limitations on eating out. The dependence is therefore on fresh home-cooked meals. However, managing full work hours and house-work plus cooking with limited external help is taking its toll on people. So, simple, naturally healthy and quick to consume satiating foods are the need-of-the-hour.
The quick-to-consume beverage meal comes in handy for a working lunch, replacing the unhealthy pizza, sandwich take-away office lunch options that one was earlier at the liberty to order-in.
Addition of functional ingredients like curcumin, ginger, cinnamon, moringa, seaweed, algae, yoghurt etc that are getting increasingly popular in the New Normal, will enable expansion of the product portfolio manifold.
