No fuss, No oil Healthy Snack!

August 25, 2006 by shankari  
Filed under Soups/Salads


When I am not really in the mood to do anything big, snacks like these come in handy. This is very healthy as it has absolutely no oil. Throw in all the ingredients below for a nice evening snack or any time of the day!

Garbanzo beans – 1 cup (dry)
Red Onion – 1/2 cup diced
Tomatoes – 1 finely chopped
Carrots grated – 1/4 cup
Juice of 1/2 a lime or however sour you like it
Green chilly – 1 chopped
Cilantro for garnish
Salt & pepper to taste

If you have raw mango, chop a few pieces and throw that in too. Posted by Picasa

    Finally a dish that I know what all the ingredients are! And they are all in my kitchen. Just to clarify (one would think I can’t ccok at all, and actually what I know I cook very well.) when you say the beans are “dry” you mean drain the liquid, not “dry, uncooked” ones right?

    Can’t wait to try this!

    I just discovered your blog. You have a lot of great recipes! I came up with a fusion recipe last week, myself. I had some left over items in my fridge so I came up with a fusion meal – Mexican style green enchiladas, only I filled them with cauliflower and paneer (the cauliflower was sauteed in a little butter with garlic, onion, green chilis and green bell pepper). They were better than the usual chicken filled enchiladas.
