Bread Snack ( Tiffin Treats)
by Tarla Dalal
Here is a tasty and convenient alternative to bread sandwiches. In this delicious Bread Snack, cubed whole wheat bread slices are sautéed with crunchy, juicy veggies and tongue-tickling spice powders. While garam masala is a standard addition to such dishes, adding a dash of pav bhaji masala makes this snack quite different! With the pleasing aroma and flavour of their favourite snack, kids are sure to gobble up this tiffin treat within minutes. Allow to cool completely before packing, otherwise it will tend to sweat out and become soggy. If packed at room temperature, it will stay fresh and tasty for 4 hours. Also pack Minty Nimbu Pani ( Tiffin Treats) in a thermos flask for a perfect short break combo.
