Hello,
I’m here again with another easy-to-make keto recipe to enhance the flavor of your Indian meals. One of my favorite ways to make the keto diet interesting is to give a keto twist to classic recipes. This time I am going to share with you my Flax Seeds Raita recipe. It is easy to prepare and full of healthy fats, flavor, and fiber content. This makes it ideal to pair with your keto Indian meals.
Flax seeds are loaded with nutrition, as they are loaded with fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, and lignans. Hence, these are the perfect addition to any keto meal plan. You can enjoy it with my Creamy Paneer Makhani or Keto Coconut Flour Flatbread recipes, or any other Indian recipes of your choice. Whether you want to eat something refreshing or seeking a way to cool down spicy Indian keto meals, this raita is perfect to do the trick.
Let’s dive into this recipe.
