Since fruits have healthy sugar fructose and seasonal fruits are known to supercharge your metabolism by boosting the immunity and fiber, iron and B6 intake, it is essential to be fruit-friendly this Navratri. You can also opt for Amaranth porridge for breakfast with nuts or milk or cook it as namkeen dalia with lots of vegetables since Amarnath is the best protient origin and one of the most promising unexploited food and folder crops.

3. Lunch:

Eat baked sabudana tikkis with veggies and curd or grilled vadas with mint spicy chutney or Kuttu chapatti with vegetables and salad with raita or samak rice with vegetables and salad since samak rice are very easy to digest. On the other hand, limit your potato intake to about twice a week and replace fried aloo-chat with boiled aloo-chat and puri or pakodas made from Kuttu atta with Kuttu ki roti. On the contrary, instead of using kuttu ka atta you can also use rajgira flour to make rotis since it is lighter and low in calories. Drink a cup of hot green tea post lunch.

4. Evening snacks:

Do not over eat packed namkeens since they are high in salt and fat content. Instead, try healthy snacking with drink green tea while munching on baked chips or roasted makhana or baked namkeen or mix of nuts like almonds/ raisins/ walnut /roasted peanuts, etc. Go for sabudana khichdi, bhel, makahans and chana and do not opt for processed juice nor tea and coffee as caffeine can make you dehydrated nor unhealthy snacks like pooris, pakoras and chips.

5. Dinner:

The last platter for the day should be paneer tikka with vegetables or simply skimmed milk with fruits or a bowl of vegetables and salad or pumpkin and bottle gourd soup with vegetables. Roast, grill or bake vegetables instead of deep-frying them. You can also eat baked sweet potato cutlets with hung curd dip for dinner or paneer stuffed amaranth cheela or rajgira roti with cucumber raita or samak and peanuts rice as your last meal before bed.
