Easy Diwali snacks that are so healthy you won’t need to worry about those calories

While it is the festival of lights, it is incomplete without food. It is that time of the year again where food and traditional Indian snacks become everyone’s best friend. From gujiya to namak paara, every home smells divine with all the food that gets prepared. But while at it, each of these food items is either fried or full of calories. This makes life very difficult if you are trying to watch that weight. So, here we are with all the healthy recipes to help you enjoy Diwali on a happy note. Check it out

Oats Chivda

Just switch the regular potatoes that you use for the chivda with oats and heaped poha. These are roasted on a dry pan and barely have any oil. They are also healthy and not filled with calories. This is an easy and healthy alternative to your regular chivda.

Dates and dry fruit laddoo

Your usual motichoor laddoos are filled with sugar and calories. You can easily switch it for a healthier alternative by opting for laddoos made out of dates and dry fruit. They are low in calories and also help improve metabolism.

Baked chakli

Instead of opting for fried chakli, you can switch it for one that is baked. You can also make it healthier by switching up your regular atta for something simpler to digest like ragi or rice flour.

Whole wheat namak paare

Namak paare is something that is one of the most loved dishes during Diwali. However, you can twist the recipe around to make it healthier while keeping the same taste alive. Switch your regular atta for wheat flour and you will not even know the difference.

Dry fruits chikki

This is the easiest to make and one of the best ways to fill up an empty stomach. Start by picking out your favourite dry fruits and oil it up with maple syrup. Now, once you bake it in the oven, it will turn hard and you won’t even understand the difference between regular and normal chikki.
