The under-100 desk drawer

The whole point of makhana is volume: a full 20 g serve is a genuinely big bowl for less than a biscuit. Pair it with something fizzy and the craving is handled for under 100 calories total.

What's in it

How

  1. 01

    Keep the makhana in your desk, not the kitchen. Proximity decides what you eat.

  2. 02

    Eat it slowly out of a bowl rather than the packet — the volume is the point.
