Staying true to the term Snack, please keep your kids’ snack portions small and serve these only in between meals as a refreshment. Do not serve these as a main meal. I had developed and tried all these recipes for my kids. Over the years these have been a favorite with them. Hope your kids will love them too. This collection of healthy Indian snack recipes includes lots of ladoos, Indian sandwich recipes, baked and pan fried snacks, quick chaats and salads. I have also included some pasta recipes too which can be served after school. For a wider choice you can check this complete collection of snacks. Let us start with these energy booster ladoos. Check out 32 easy ladoo recipes here. Do choose the ones made from jaggery or use organic jaggery. For ease of understanding I have divided the entire post in sections.
