Avocado Tandoori Roti

100% whole wheat flatbread made with avocados. These avocado tandoori roti's are great for lunch / dinner !
I had no idea what an avocado looked like till I moved to UK and now it’s one of my favorite things to eat.
Avocados are very rich in fats but at the same time super healthy. Sounds confusing...
Avocado is rich in monounsaturated fat – the good fat which keeps your heart healthy.
Other than being rich in good fat, they also have plenty of magnesium and potassium in them and are also a good source of fiber.
With so many health benefits, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t be eating them.
There’s so much you can do with this amazing fruit- its can be used in dips, pasta, pizza, sandwiches, salads, milkshakes, icecreams..list goes on.
For avocado milkshake and icecream recipes check my blog. Today am going to share very Indian way of this fruit- Avocado tandoori roti. Its super yummy and filling.
