Healthy Recipe Ideas
Little Hearts & Fruit Yogurt Parfait
1. In a glass, create a base layer of crushed Little Hearts biscuits. 2. Add a thick layer of plain Greek yogurt or hung curd. 3. Top with fresh berries, chopped mango, or banana. 4. Repeat the layers and garnish with a whole biscuit on top.
Health Benefits
Adds protein, fiber, and vitamins from yogurt and fruits, creating a more balanced dessert.
Crunchy Biscuit Topping for Millet Kheer
1. Prepare a healthy kheer using oats or millets and sweeten it with dates or a minimal amount of jaggery. 2. Cook until thick and creamy. 3. Just before serving, lightly crush 2-3 Little Hearts biscuits and sprinkle them over the kheer for a crunchy topping.
Health Benefits
Incorporates the biscuit as a textural garnish rather than a main ingredient, pairing it with a high-fiber, complex-carb base.
Choco-Nut Dipped Little Hearts
1. Melt a small amount of dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher). 2. Dip one half of each Little Hearts biscuit into the melted chocolate. 3. Place on a parchment-lined tray and sprinkle with finely chopped nuts like almonds or pistachios. 4. Refrigerate for 10-15 minutes until the chocolate sets.
Health Benefits
Adds antioxidants from dark chocolate and healthy fats and protein from nuts to the snack.
