A
Low-calorie evening snack
Chenna
Chaat is very popular street food in India. Black Chana Chaat is one such delicacy that is
famous across India. There was a vendor outside my school, who would make and
sell this Chaat in his cart which we would gorge upon nearly every other day.
His Chaat was tangy and lip smacking. He prepared it with great speed and
precision.
This
high protein snack is one of the tastiest snacks that can be made in a
jiffy. Trust me, a bowl of freshly made Chana
Chaat in the evening is one of the best habits you will inculcate. This is a diabetic friendly recipe.
