Beetroot & Carrot Halwa


We all know fruits and vegetables are healthy and nutritious. If we can make a dessert out of it, then there is nothing like that. I used to make either carrot or beetroot halwa, but this is the first time I am trying the combination of both the veggies which is full of fiber content and makes a low calorie food.


In this if you want you can add khoya, condensed milk to improve taste, but I sticked to the basic ingredients and it ended up as a luscious dessert ..... slurp slurp.... :)

This is so simple and can be made within minutes, so can be tried at  any time of the day... This is an effortless, low calorie, guilt free, sugar free dessert. So what are you waiting for? Just dig into this heavenly sweet.....
