Makai Bombay Mix or Makka Chivda or Mixture or Chudwa is an excellent option for anytime Snacking. It's absolutely yummy and quite a filling one as well. Basically it's a fried one with a few simplest of the everyday spices that we all use along with Dry Fruits and Nuts. A best option for a healthy Brunch and an afterschool Snack as well.
An awesome tiffin box idea too. It's actually a multipurpose one. Healthy and a wholesome Snack with all the goodness of essential nutrients.

Makka Chivda or Cornflakes Mixture is a great option for everyday Snacking. The best part is that it can be made in a large quantity and stored for a long time. And when it's homemade, be rest assured that there would be no compromise on quality. The Oil and the other ingredients including the Nuts used would be fresh and flavourful. That's the reason why homemade is always the best. Let it come to room temperature before storing in airtight containers. Also one more best part of it is that it can be used in a variety of Chaats. Isn't that simply amazing? I too do the same. Just add a few Vegetables with some freshly made quick Chutneys, Curd and Sprouts, Boiled and mashed Potatoes etc, a stunning Chaat can be made in no time at all. You will love it for every reason. The Makai or Cornflakes Mixture can therefore be used in many ways.

Enjoy Cooking with Zeen!

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
