One of the great pleasures of life is to get up in morning with a hungry stomach. Nothing beats having a hot cup of tea along with a nice hot breakfast.

The is my healthy version of a burger.

Ingredients:

1. 2 medium boiled potatoes (or microwave them for 5 minutes they will be cooked well)

2. 1 bowl soya granules, soaked in boiled water and then squeeze out the water.

3. 1/4 grated cabbage

4. 1/2 grated carrot.

5. Green chillies to taste

6. 1 tsp coriander powder.

7. 1 tsp kashmiri red chili powder

8. 1/2 tsp garam masala.

9. Salt to taste.

10. Black pepper to sprinkle.

11. Green mint coriander chutney.

12. Tomato sauce (optional)

13. Tomato, cucumber slices to apply on top of patty.

Note - There are many variations of this burger. it depends on what is in my fridge. Other versions included spinach, crushed boiled corns, grated cauliflower, mashed boiled green peas, mashed boiled beans, mashed boiled rajma, mashed boiled white chana. Don't stop your imagination, you can add any vegetable you want.

2.Make think patties and on a pan grill them nicely on both side in 1 tsp of oil. Gently press the patties so that the mixture gets crisped properly. Don't worry if the patty crumbles, they stick back together again.

7. Enjoy. You can also have it as an open sandwich.

This burger will keep you happy and full for 3 hours. Don't hesitate to put in more cucumber and tomatoes, add salad leaves as well.

 

Have a banana or any fruit before exercise in morning. I do it, it helps to prevent hunger during exercise. As far as your weight is going down, dinner sounds good. Take this weight loss one week at a time. See, how much your weight reduces in this week and then make modifications next week. Don't reduce more on you dinner. Other options of dinner can be soup and salad.

Another option before exercise is handful of roasted channa. My favorite is banana. Biscuits are really not a good start to a morning.

 

I am glad you like it, do give it a try.

 

I am glad you liked it, let me know how it turned out.

Have a great day ahead.
