Split Green Moong Dal Cheela/ Lentil Crepes
I make Cheela from all the dals as they all are packed with nutrients. plus you don’t get bored having the same cheela. All dals have a unique taste which makes every cheela Unique in taste. Right ???

Red kidney Bean Burrito
This is my kids favorite. I use regular roti/ phulka in place of tortilla which makes it even more healthy.

Yellow Moong Dal Salad
This one is super healthy and a great choice for weight watchers. Soaked and Sauteed dhuli moong dal or yellow moong dal served with cucumber, bell peppers, and carrot.

Acaraje
Acaraje is a popular Brazilian street food made from Lobia/black eyed peas. It is very yummy, nutritious and full of fiber. Although it is deep fried it is very light in texture. A good way to eat Lobia/ black eyed peas.
