Effective weight management includes a healthy balance of calories consumed versus calories burned. As most of us almost always fail to burn less than the calories we consume, it is best to avoid high-calorie foods. Here are five low-calorie recipes that you can master to ensure you have your daily dose of healthy diet.
We are always advised to choose healthy carbohydrates in our daily
diet. To make your diet nutritious and healthy, go for healthy carbs
such as bajra rotis. But rotis without oil or flavor every day may get
monotonous. To make them tasty and filling, get creative and add a
variety of stuffing to them, and you will have innovative rotis on the
table. To keep it low on calories, serve without butter.

2 teacups of bajra flour
A pinch of salt

1/2 teacup crumbled paneer
2 tablespoons chopped fenugreek (methi) leaves
1 chopped green chili
1 finely chopped large tomato

Method:For the dough
Add salt and hot water to the bajra flour and make the dough.
Knead well, divide into 16 portions and roll out each portion into thin rotis.

well so that it doubles up into one roti. Repeat the same with the
remaining rotis and stuffing.
Cook each stuffed roti on a tawa (griddle) on both sides without oil.
