If you're in the mood for a simple, easy-to-make salad, try a basic tomato salad recipe. In addition to fresh tomatoes, you can also add chopped white beans and chickpeas. The best type of tomato for this recipe is cherry tomato, as it is packed with flavor. If you are using larger tomatoes, then you should cut them into larger pieces. Otherwise, the tomato salad will taste more like salsa or relish. Lastly, it's important to serve this salad fresh, within an hour.

The most important aspect of this recipe is the dressing. If you choose to use vinegar or olive oil, then you should drizzle it over the salad. For added flavor, add fresh herbs like parsley and dill. Toss and serve! 

This recipe takes only minutes to make and has all the classic flavors. Enjoy! Another basic tomato salad recipe uses cherry or grape tomatoes. Choose larger ones for better taste and texture. When cutting larger tomatoes, one way to retain good texture and juices is to cut them in half from top to bottom. Next, slice them into wedges and cut them into chunks. Then add some loosely torn out lettuce leaves.

To make a simple dressing for a basic tomato salad, whisk together olive oil, vinegar, and herbs. Add a pinch of salt to taste. Drizzle this over tomato slices, onion rings and serve. To make it more hearty, you can add grains like fluffed Cous Cous, quinoa, chick peas or black beans. This salad is a great side dish for a barbecue or an outdoor barbecue. Just be sure to have enough fresh vegetables to share!

    Our Journey to "Oneness" 

    It is a journey and like all journeys, it is set with many moments of challenges and accomplishments. 

    But when one's heart is true and the decision is made to "be the best that one can be", then each challenge merely seems like a stepping stone, to be overcome to reach and experience new heights of existential living.

    Hope you find these notes inspiring enough to initiate your own journey...
     
    ​What else will you find here??

    Here you will find thoughts, ideas, musings and  insights which make us reflect on the nature of our life and reality. I hope that these will connect with you. 


    These articles address the various insights, lessons and at times modern-interpretations of techniques and methods of ancient wisdom (particularly Vedic Culture) and also Shamanism, Buddhism, Druid- Paganism, Sufi Islam and Taoism. 

    It tries to bring the wisdom of ancient, insightful ways to benefit a modern, evolving and conscious lifestyle.

    Frankly it brings many of the spiritual concepts to  a "real  life" level!!

    Think of this guidance as "Spirituality for the Rest of Us"... folks who  have families,  careers,  material goals & ambitions  and so on... the ones  who cannot simply extrapolate what  typical spiritual gurus and guides say, when they live special monastic lives.  


    Each one of us may have different life situations but ultimately we are all ONE life and we all go thru these myriads of situations, experiences, thoughts and feelings at some point or other in time. 

    Read along and see how these lessons, insights and guidance can help you to chalk out your own path to 'One-ness'- where you are successful, healthy and Happy.   
    ​

    Do let me know of your experiences.

    I would love to read about them and promise to respond as much as possible.
