Beetroot Vendhaya Uthappam
Cooks in: 30 Minutes Serves: 5 People
Beetroot is loaded with nutrients and I have explained in detail about the health benefits of this root vegetable. Vendhayam/Fenugreek seeds/Methi seeds are excellent source of fibre and continuous intake of these seeds reduces the blood sugar levels. When both these are used to make Uthappam, which is again a source of B12 due of fermenting process, the breakfast dish can not be more healthy than this!

Vegan Ragi Banana Dates Cake
Cooks in: 50 Minutes Serves: 6 People
Ragi is a very good source of calcium, fibre, iron and other micro nutrients. Dates are rich in dietary fiber, which prevents LDL cholesterol absorption in the gut. Additionally, the fiber diet works as a bulk laxative. It, thus, helps protect the colon mucous membrane from cancer-causing chemicals binding to it in the colon. Bananas are again a rich source of fibre and potassium. When all these are put together to make a cake, the result is a very healthy bake! This recipe is Vegan and no processed sugar is added. The fruits give a mild sweetness which is perfect for a tea time snack.
