Ingredients:

• ½ cup semolina (rava or sooji)

• 1 small carrot (finely chopped)

• ½ cup green peas

• ¼ cup chopped bell peppers (any color)

• 2 tablespoons chopped onion

• 1–2 green chilies (finely chopped)

• 1 teaspoon mustard seeds

• 1 teaspoon urad dal (split black gram)

• 1 tablespoon oil or ghee (for tempering)

• 1½ cups water

• 2 scoops Plantigo Vegan Protein Powder for Muscle Gain – Unflavored

• Salt to taste

• A pinch of turmeric

• Fresh coriander leaves for garnish

• Lemon wedge (optional)

Steps to Make High-Protein Vegetable Upma Recipe:

1. Dry Roast the Semolina

In a pan, dry roast the semolina on medium heat until light golden and aromatic. Set aside to cool—this step ensures a fluffy, non-sticky upma recipe base.

2. Sauté the Veggies

In the same pan, heat oil or ghee. Add mustard seeds and let them splutter. Toss in urad dal, green chilies, and onions. Sauté for 2 minutes, then add chopped vegetables and cook for another 3–4 minutes until slightly tender.

3. Build the Protein-Rich Base

Add 1½ cups water, salt, turmeric, and bring it to a gentle boil. Now stir in Plantigo Vegan Protein Powder for Muscle Gain. Mix well until the powder is fully dissolved, creating a smooth, enriched liquid base. This is what gives this upma recipe its powerful plant protein boost.

4. Add Semolina and Cook

Slowly pour the roasted semolina into the boiling mixture, stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Cook on low heat until the water is absorbed and the upma recipe reaches a soft, fluffy consistency.

5. Finish and Serve

Turn off the heat. Cover with a lid and let it sit for 2 minutes to steam. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and a squeeze of lemon juice if desired. With every bite, you get the goodness of veggies, warmth of tradition, and more than 24 grams of clean plant protein from Plantigo Vegan Protein Powder for Muscle Gain.
