Healthy Indian Veg Sandwich Recipes for Breakfast

Paneer cucumber dill toast recipe | Indian cottage cheese toast | healthy paneer cucumber suva toast is a healthy snack for all health conscious. No-fuss, just fun… and of course good health too! This quick paneer cucumber dill toast just involves mixing the ingredients, and topping a whole wheat toast with them. When you have time on hand, use multigrain bread instead of readymade whole wheat bread. You are sure to love its texture and flavour.

What makes the Indian cottage cheese toast so attractive is the thoughtful combo of ingredients. Cooling cucumber goes well with calcium and protein rich paneer, and iron and vitamin A rich dill. Dill is used only in small quantities, due to its strong flavour, but even that brings in a lot of taste and nutrients to the toast, while chopped olives give it a wonderful crunch and the jalapenos adds the necessary spice touch.

Healthy Indian Rotis, Parathas for Breakfast

Jowar is one of the top 5 cereals in the world and is also one of the super foods with many health benefits. We have a very easy recipe using jowar that is Jowar roti also known as "Sorghum roti" 

Jowar roti is super rich in fibre, is gluten free, good for diabetics, high in magnesium and iron also lowers blood pressure and cholesterol. We have used hot water for kneading the dough as it helps in getting the roti soft and even when not served for hours, it doesn't become hard or chewy. But you also need to make sure that you roll out the roti immediately after kneading the dough as if you would keep the dough for a long time, it will loose its moisture and would become splintery which would make rolling difficult. My grandmother would cook it on an earthen clay oven on a chulha which would give a smoky flavor to the roti. Whenever we cook jowar roti at home, i make any Maharashtrian sabzi to eat along.
