I often feel hungry when I sit idle or whenever I do some boring job. Like many girls, even I am conscious about my health. That extra gain in weight scares me to hell. I use to often wonder what can I eat to satisfy my hunger and at the same time to satisfy my taste buds. I thought of making a list. Here it goes:
  1.  Puffed rice snack: It is the most common snack available in India. All you need to do is, take little oil in pan, fry peanuts for a while and keep at aside. Add curry leaves and crushed garlic in oil. Wait till garlic turns brown. Reduce the flame, add puffed rice, fried peanuts and turmeric powder and some chili powder and salt. Mix well and fry it puffed rice becomes crispy.

5.   Apple with walnut butter – Apple has lots of fiber. It gives a lot of energy and at the same time reduces hunger also.You can add little walnut butter to increase its taste.

 6.   Vegetable Sandwich – If I am extra hungry during an odd hour. I prefer a vegetable sandwich. Quickly cut tomato, onion, cucumber, boiled potato in thin slices. Add little salt and pepper.                    Apply butter  on a two slices of bread. Spread some ketch up both sides. Take a  slice of bread, put a layer for each vegetable and cover it up with another slice of bread. If you want it hot. Just toast the bread and you ready with your quick meal.
