Satvik Food consists of no grains so only few things like Buckwheat (Kuttu), Amaranth (Rajgira), Barnyard Millet (Samak) Water Chestnut (Singhada) and Tapioca (Sabudana) are allowed. These Amaranth ALmond Pistachio cookies are not just something that can be had during fasts but they are great for people who are Gluten Allergic they are made with completely gluten free Amaranth Flour. The addition of almond meal and pistachios makes it even more interesting and nutritious.
