  cravings, to grab that badly needed bite in the

  after a hard days work with some evening snacks,
  we look for readily available, tasty options. All
  these push us towards picking up fatty stuff that
  does more harm than good.

  effects on our health. On the other hand, healthy
  Indian snacks can keep you energetic and happy
  throughout the day. It doesnt mean that one
  should compromise with food and taste. All we
  need is to find alternatives that are healthy and
  full of flavor. Thankfully in India, there is no
  dearth of options.

  like chips and puffs never gets over. Thankfully,
  there is a good alternative in the form of
  makhana. For the health-conscious, it is a
  low-calorie option that is full of many nutrients

  since always and is now finally getting its
  much-deserved recognition. Now available as a
  packaged snack, you can easily buy beaten moong
  from a shop near you, or online.

Dry Fruits

• Our parents and grandparents have always insisted
  that we should eat some dry fruits on a daily
  basis. And, without a doubt, the health benefits
  of dry-fruits are many. Almonds, pistachios
  cashews are some of the popular dry-fruits that
  are easily available.

7
Protein Bars

• When we think of protein bars, we assume that
  they will be a packaged bar made with many
  synthetic ingredients. But, an Indian version of
  protein bars can also be formulated with
  household ingredients like Gur, almonds, honey,
  murmure channa, etc.

Oats

• Oats are among the healthiest whole grain food
  available. The whole form of oats can take time
  to cook, whereas instant oat can be a good option
  as you can cook them in the microwave with a
  little milk. For extra nutrients, add some fruits
  to it.

Gur Chana

• Gur Chana is innovated by some leading organic
  food brands which bought it to the limelight.
  Both the taste factor the nutritional value of
  this traditional Indian healthy snack are
  undeniable.

Chivda/Poha

• Chivda or Poha, as it is often called, is a
  popular base for many Indian dry snacks. Most of
  the Namkeens you find out there have chivda as
  its main ingredient. It is a wholesome meal that
  is rich in fiber and a good source of
  carbohydrate, iron, and essential vitamins

11
Murmure/Puffed Rice

• Like Poha, murmure or puffed rice is also a
  popular base for many namkeens and mixtures that
  are available in the market. They are light on
  the stomach and make for a great mid-day snack.
  This is the best example of a quick and healthy
  snack in India.

12
 Whole Wheat Biscuits

• The biscuits that we enjoy with our cup of chai
  are often flour-based and can be bad for our gut
  health. Thankfully, many organic food brands sell
  wheat biscuits, which are a much better
  alternative

Khakhra Chips

• This popular Gujarati snack has made its presence
  felt all over the country. Khakhra is a healthier
  alternative to packaged junk food and is lighter
  on the stomach. It is often accompanied by a
  pickle, which brings the best taste out of
  Khakhra chips
