Quinoa Pulao for Fasting | Fasting Recipe for Weight Loss | Nongrain Food for Vrat

June 16, 2023 Shubhra Food 0

Today, I’m making a quinoa recipe that is great for fasting, as quinoa is a seed and not a grain, legume, or pulse. It can be eaten during Navratri, ekadashi, and other fasts, just like samak ke chawal, singhade ka aata, and kuttu ka aata. Quinoa is a superfood that can help with weight loss because of its high fibre and protein content, which increases metabolism. With five grams of dietary fibre per cup, quinoa is an excellent choice for those looking to lose weight. This fasting recipe does not use ingredients such as onion, garlic, and spices, which are prohibited during fasting.
