Before going into the recipe: Check out my guest post on Be@Home website where two of my recipes were published.
Now to the recipe: As I wrote in my previous post, this is a second version of brown rice dosa where I soaked brown rice and fermented the batter. There is version 3 too, which will be coming soon in the series.

Brown Rice Dosa – Version 1
This is an instant dosa with no soaking or fermenting. I named it version 1 because I also tried another version of this dosa by soaking and fermenting. Both of them tasted so good and felt healthy. I will post the second version soon.

Orange Rava Dosa
One day I tried to make orange juice in a weird way. I took out orange wedges, put in the blender and blended finely. Then filtered it to extract juice, but could get only a glass full of juice with so many oranges and more of orange pulp. I didn't want to waste the orange pulp, so thought of using it in some recipe and stored it in the refrigerator for a day. The next day I got the idea of making dosas with the pulp. DH and kids laughed at the idea of an orange dosa, but they agreed that it tasted great when I made it.

Soy Beans – Brown Rice Dosa
Presenting another healthy dosa version! This tasted so delicious like all the other dosas. We all know about the many health benefits of soya and brown rice.
Soybeans provide lots of proteins, iron, calcium, phosphorus, and dietary fiber. They are also excellent source of vitamins B1, B2, B6, and E and folic acid. It helps in reducing LDL (bad cholesterol) levels and in cancer prevention.
Brown rice is considered to be an excellent food for weight loss and lowering cholesterol. It is a rich source of fiber and many vitamins.

Pinto Beans Dosa - Spicy
I recently made a yummy dosa with pinto beans. DH said it tasted soooo delicious. I felt like eating a pesarattu.
Pinto beans are so rich in fiber and iron. Here are some health benefits of these beans:
Pinto beans are a very good source of cholesterol-lowering fiber, as are most other beans. In addition to lowering cholesterol, pinto beans' high fiber content prevents blood sugar levels from rising too rapidly after a meal, making these beans an especially good choice for individuals with diabetes, insulin resistance or hypoglycemia. When combined with whole grains such as brown rice, pinto beans provide virtually fat-free, high quality protein. But this is far from all pinto beans have to offer. Pinto beans are also an excellent source of molybdenum, a very good source of folate and manganese, and a good source of protein and vitamin B1 as well as the minerals phosphorus, iron, magnesium, potassium, and copper.

Quinoa Dosa
Quinoa is a grain that has little crunchy texture. It gives a nutty flavor when cooked. Quinoa belongs to spinach family. It is rich in proteins and fiber. Though Quinoa is not a very common grain in many kitchens, many are trying to explore this wonder grain due its health benefits.
Quinoa is a very good source of manganese as well as a good source of magnesium, iron, copper and phosphorus; this "grain" may be especially valuable for persons with migraine headaches, diabetes and atherosclerosis. Source: http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=foodspice&dbid=142

Peppered Wheat Dosa
Most of us know about the goodness of black pepper, right? As far as I know, black pepper helps in good digestion and relieves cold symptoms. I remember my mom used to make small balls out of jaggery mixed with black peppercorns to treat cough. It really worked for me! I recently heard that it is better if we replace red chili powder with black pepper powder, as peppercorns proved to possess many medicinal benefits.
I usually add red chili powder while making wheat dosas, but this time I thought of using black pepper powder. Another reason was, I had bad cold that day. So thought it would work both ways: good for my throat and also give a different taste to wheat dosas. It really tasted delicious and spicy.

Upma Dosa
When I have leftover upma, I don’t like to eat it by reheating. I just turn it into different forms like bondas just like I made Vermicelli Bonda and sometimes pakodas and sometimes dosas like these. I guarantee the taste. This involves easiest preparation with limited number of ingredients.
