Say yes to veggies

We all know veggies play a super important role in our food platter, catering us the right amount of nutrients and a low-calorie filling meal. Yet, in most of the cases, it is impossible to feed the children all the veggies which are essential for them. To make sure your kids are having veggies in the right amount, give the regular side dishes a break and stuff veggies in a paratha or puri. Try our cabbage paratha for example! Or you can also make this vegetable dosa, which is a hit among people of all ages.
