Then try this sugar free and guilt free halwa / pudding made of quinoa and dates. I have not added any artificial colour and I guess this type of halwa is generally not made or heard of.

So give it a try and surprise your loved ones with this unique dessert.They are extremely easy and quick to prepare. Serve them as an offering to God and can be stored in an airtight container at least for a week in the refrigerator.

Creamy Matcha Pudding Creamy Matcha Pudding

I made this for my son who loves matcha lattes. Even if you use a lot of matcha tea powder, because of the cream in this pudding it's not bitter at all!Matcha tea powder tends to form clumps, so please sift it in using a tea strainer even if it seems like an extra step.Gelatin powder is usually just softened in water, but I think it tends to form lumps so I always dissolve it properly in hot water before adding it.

#Bandhan - Chia seeds are a power house of fibre, calcium, protein, healthy fats, antioxidants, etc. You can easily make simple and delicious desserts with it without any effort. Today I incorporated it with mango puree and milk and made this amazing & yummy pudding. You can just mix and match and add any of your favourite fruit / flavour to these seeds and dish out healthy desserts / pudding for your family and friends.

I wanted to add color and cheer to my breakfast while paying attention to nutritional quality and aesthetics. Chia seeds for omega-3s and plant proteins, almond milk for calcium, mango and goji berries for vitamin C, shredded coconut for fiber and minerals, and dark chocolate chips for a mood boost, not to mention puffed quinoa, my star! All gluten-free and lactose-free, cheers.Michael Salamone
