High-Protein Diet: Now Making Protein-Rich Besan Cheela is a very easy task.
Morning nutrition is riddled with unavoidable ironies. Our bodies require ample nutrition in the morning, but there is little time to prepare lavish meals amid the hustle and bustle. It’s difficult to prepare quick meals that are also nutritious. Cheela is an all-time favorite among healthy, easy-to-make breakfast dishes. It is nutritious, tasty, easy on the stomach, and quick to prepare. It is typically made from besan (chickpea gramme flour), a healthy, gluten-free flour high in fiber and other nutrients. It cooks with little oil and can be topped with onions, paneer, tomato, coriander leaves, and other ingredients for a flavorful treat. It can also be rolled up and eaten on the run during those hectic mornings.
Protein is important to include in your diet, especially if you are trying to lose weight, according to health experts all over the world. Protein provides much-needed energy to compensate for energy loss during regular physical activities and workout sessions. The best time to have protein is in the morning so that the body is ready to take on the impending physical and mental load. It’s wise to add proteins to your breakfast diet and here’s an amazing way to do so with your regular besan cheela – add palak (spinach) to it.
Spinach is high in protein, as well as other essential vitamins and minerals such as iron, magnesium, potassium, folates, and carbohydrates. Spinach is a nutritious food that meets a large portion of the body’s nutritional requirements.
