Being a nutritionist, my goal is to derive and try out recipes that are high on nutrition but low on calories, fat and sugars. When I got to know about this challenge , I decided to try out this Indian style version of bruschetta. I used whole wheat bread instead of the regular french breads made with refined flour. I also skipped oil completely to lower the calories and for protein, I added crumbled cottage cheese on top. For the topping, I replaced the regular tomato and olive oil mix with Maharashtrian staple salad koshimbir which is a spicy combination of chopped onion, tomato , green chillies, coriander, lemon juice and spices. The result was super yummy and fingerlicking gooooood. This is an excellent starter or finger food for parties.Try it, share it, save it and let me know in the comments about your version . Wishing you all a joyful Deepavali!🎇🎇 🪔🪔
