i have been posting a variety of recipes and i get a lot of requests to post some easy recipes on weight loss. moreover coming from south india, most my recipes are either rice or carbs rich recipes. hence i get a lot of request to for no meat protein recipes. hence i thought of clubbing together and post a simple and easy homemade protein powder recipe. these are made with different types of nuts, dry fruits and fruit seeds which is not only rich in protein but also balances our daily diet. i personally make it in a large quantity and add it to most of the milk dessert recipes. for example, you may add these to kheer recipes, payasam recipes. adding these makes it more healthy and also adds additional flavour from dry fruits and nuts. in short, it solves 2 purposes at a time.
furthermore, i would also like to highlight some more tips, suggestions and variations to the protein powder recipe. firstly, i have tried to add as many as nuts and dry fruits for this powder. but you may also add your favourite nuts or dry fruits as an experiment to it. for instance, you may add roasted peanuts as a change of flavour. secondly, i have added milk powder to the protein mixture to make it more creamy. but you may also add fine cocoa powder to have the chocolate flavour. make sure it is an organic cocoa powder to eliminate chemical inclusions. lastly, there are no restrictions to use milk to mix the powder. you may also use other options like water or any juice as per your choice and preference.
