Chawli Sabzi (easy To Prepare)

Cowpeas have a high fiber and protein content that exerts a positive effect on your stomach and helps in the process of digestion. The high protein content in cowpeas helps maintain healthy skin by accelerating the process of skin repair. They are low-fat, low-calorie beans, which are extremely beneficial for weight loss. The sodium content of the vegetable is also very low. All these make the item a great nutritious option for overweight people to shed off excess weight and slim down.

Sweet Potato Wedges

Sweet potato is an excellent source of vitamin A (in the form of beta carotene) and also a good source of Vitamin C, manganese, copper, pantothenic acid and vitamin B6. Olive oil has multiple health benefits since it is rich in  linoleic acid [omega-6] and mono-unsaturated fatty acids [MUFA] that helps in lowering LDL or "bad cholesterol" and increases HDL or "good cholesterol" in the blood.

Kick It Up Salad Dressing

Apple cider vinegar is a classic salad dressing ingredient, which you can definitely get a little creative with instead of the most commonly used olive oil. On the other hand, liquid stevia is a natural sweetener which is low in calories, good for diabetics and helps to maintain healthy blood pressure.
