Khalsa Woman Leader: Gurubachan Kaur Khalsa

SS Gurubachan Kaur (born in Mexico, living in USA) is an ordained Sikh Dharma Minister and has been a member of the International Khalsa Council for many years. She served the Siri Singh Sahib for many years.  She has 3 grown children and 4 grandchildren.

Gurubachan Kaur is the owner of Mata G (in Sanskrit, meaning “respected or honorable mother”) which opened in Albuquerque’s Nob Hill neighborhood in 2018.  Mata G Vegetarian Kitchen has the goal of making people feel healthy, happy, and nourished through a variety of vegetarian and vegan ready-made snacks, meals, and drinks.

“A couple of years before we opened, my son gave me our logo and said, ‘People should taste your food because people don’t understand how good vegetarian food can be,” says Gurubachan Kaur Khalsa, whose family, staff, and customers lovingly call her Mata G. Plant-forward recipes, like the Mediterranean sub with hummus and green chile olive tapenade or the Moroccan saffron couscous bowl, are inspired by her love of global cuisine, Lebanese heritage, and childhood spent in Mexico City. Mata G also offers catering and, in keeping true to its mission of serving others, donates thousands of pounds of food each year across New Mexico.
