Beet root Parantha ..one of the easiest and good ways to get your kid to eat beetroot which is a good source of protein, dietry fibre and is high in important minerals and vitamins required by our body.
Has no fat and no cholestrol so needless to say how good it is for adults too.I like its bright red/purple colour which is due to betalain pigments. Instead of using artificial colours beetroot can be used to make any dish colourful.
I started making betroot paranthas just recently after eating at my cousin’s place and beleive me its not that bad..:)
