As the kids look forward to an interesting meal each day during their lunch break at school, this lunch box with a chatpata Indian Style Pasta, protein packed boiled eggs and a fruit will definitely bring a smile on their faces, experiencing no disappointment.
Pasta is one of those dishes that is thoroughly enjoyed by us Indians, although traditionally it belongs to the Italian cuisine. More likeable when cooked with an added twist of Indian masalas, tossed in an onion-tomato base. Absolutely delectable. A smart way to serve this to your kids is to sneak in some vegetables that will be camouflaged by the pasta. Vegetables that your child would otherwise choose not to eat.
Boiled eggs packed with protein and bananas packed with potassium are great energy giving foods, that your child might require in an action packed day at school.
