me..

Hi..

I am Sanjeeta KK, your host for this site.

Mom of two kids, who follows her own diet rules and carries a bucketful of dreams day & night, in spite of finding less time to make happen Optimist by nature and a lover of all forms of creativity I have walked down on Earth for 40+ odd years.

And with a Masters’ degree in Economics & Business management, am currently managing the intricacies & economies of my home and my blog Lite Bite.

What is Lite Bite

The blog shares vegetarian recipes, egg less baking and low cal festive desserts which are easy and might help many who are short on time yet value their health.

Since dietary habits play a crucial role in deciding how fast one age, cooking our daily meal with a little nutritional knowledge gives an extra edge to health. Why not put in a little extra effort to find out what goes in our daily food and incorporate some easy yet healthy lifestyle changes in our life.

Join me

Be adventurous when cooking. Let us learn & adopt recipes from every corner of the world to suit our taste and combine our culinary skills & nutritional knowledge to incorporate healthy-living.

Whatever you choose from I wish you Bon Appétit!

More bites on me….

My Buried Treasure

My Passion
Art and food are never the bread, but the wine of my life. This addiction left me with a collection of umpteen hand written recipes, clippings and heaps of books fighting for space in my house. Apart from surfing around for international cuisine on Yahoo & Google.

My buried treasure often cried for a fresh lease on life. That is when Lite Bite came to my rescue, to compile my articles and the memories associated with food. Reading and writing on art, life and food are a few joys of my life. Lite Bite is a platform to string these beads of happiness together and keep my passion alive.

Why Lite Bite

Here go lame excuses again: Its’ been long I nurtured the dream of penning my thoughts. A demanding schedule and umpteen mundane reasons put me through my paces. Till the day I put into words my desire to have a space on the net to my better half, which was acknowledged instantly, lest I change my mind. He floored me further by gifting a personal lap top! (his first ever gift to me since marriage)

And I was left to meddle with the dreaded -PHPs, SEOs, XHTML’s, photoshop…and the likes, from the comforts of my sweet home.

Reasons to smile: But then as they say ‘Every cloud has a silver lining’ I saw mine too. It became exciting with each step forward, in the journey of learning, to explore the tech-world for good. Gratifying is the word to describe the whole experience, which opened many vistas to unfold.

My journey…

my kitchen-my domain

Recipe Bites: Born in rustic Rajasthan, married in traditional Tamil Nadu of India and watching my mother and mother–in-law cook gave me the command over the cuisines of these states. While dishing out the same recipes at home reinforced my cooking skills and helped enhance the flavors’ of the cuisines of these two states.

My open kitchen- my domain. The table top (in the picture) portray multiple roles day after day besides being a great place to keep an hawk’s eye on the kids A perfect breakfast counter, a sturdy homework table and a make-shift work station for me all day.

Health Bites: is to bring forward my views and experiences on health & fitness, the way I perceive them. After all staying healthy is no rocket science; it is much simpler than that. Explore simple ways to live life to the full.

Cheers!! Be happy and stay away from negative thoughts, “a light heart makes for an easy life”. Welcome to Lite bite with this very first step.

Hope this journey of learning and yearning about food & health prove to be rewarding for all.

Caught quipping: Thanks for taking out time and testing your patience reading the about page. I would love to hear from you. Your comments, emails and feedback will make the experience more enjoyable. Do keep coming often.
