    That looks so delicious and definitely easy to make. It's going to have to be something I make. I just wonder how many pro-points it is for Weight Watchers. Something I will have to work out 🙂

    Thanks Priya for sharing an Indian delicacy with an interesting combination of mango and pistachios! Yum! Did you see the movie/video Julie and Julia based on the true life story of a woman with the same first name as Julia Childs who vowed to cooke/bake one of her recipes very day for a year! If you haven't, type Julie and Julia in a search (google or otherwise) on your computer. That came to mind when I read your post Priya. Good luck blogging every day for a year! 🙂 <3
