Thalipeeth

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day....many of us know this. It refuels us after a long snooze and get us moving for the day!

We generally are food buffs and would love to try anything vegetarian ranging from hummus to hayagreeva ;)! These days we have cut down on using refined flours as much and more of fibre diet. This has helped us well in managing our weight and metabolism. Of course tasty dishes are always on our list - here's one such breakfast item called Thalipeeth.

Thalipeeth is a Maharashtrian and Uttara Karnataka dish. It uses various flours + Veggies of your choice. It keeps us full for a long time and hence reduces our hunger pangs for those sinful-bites. So this has become our family's favourite brunch on our day outings too!
