SNACK #1

Roasted Makhana

Makhana, also called fox nuts or lotus seeds, can make a crunchy alternative to chips and biscuits.

🌿 Try it: Dry-roast makhana and season lightly with turmeric, black pepper or your favorite herbs.

Keep the portion sensible and choose a preparation that is not overloaded with salt, sugar or oil.

SNACK #2

Millet Snack Bowl

Millet is a versatile whole grain that can be turned into a satisfying tea-time snack.

🌾 Simple idea: Mix cooked millet with vegetables, herbs and a small amount of yogurt or seeds.

Millet provides fiber and nutrients, making it a useful whole-grain option for a varied diet.

SNACK #3

Roasted Chana

Roasted chana, or chickpeas, is an easy crunchy snack that can replace salty packaged snacks.

💪 Why try it? Chickpeas provide plant protein and fiber, which can make a snack more satisfying.

Add a little cumin, chili or black pepper for flavor instead of relying heavily on salt.

SNACK #4

Fruit + A Few Nuts

Pair an apple, pear, orange or berries with a small handful of almonds or walnuts.

🍎 Easy swap: Fruit gives you fiber and nutrients, while nuts add protein, healthy fats and crunch.

This simple combination can be much more satisfying than a sugary biscuit with tea.

SNACK #5

Plain Yogurt + Berries

Try plain Greek yogurt or another unsweetened yogurt with fresh berries.

🥣 Tea-time idea: Add a few nuts or seeds for extra texture and nutrition.

Choosing unsweetened yogurt lets you control how much added sugar goes into your snack.
