Week #35- Protein packed payyasam

This week, we have 2 winners,Bhuvi Sringari and Siva. Well done guys!
I just wanted to add some oomph to the traditional payasam or kheer recipe. I cut back on the sugar and added some
really awesome ingredients. I added Flax meal, chia seeds, cranberries, sunflower seeeds, pecans and almonds. The result
was a very healthy payasam that turned out to be a great breakfast!! If you dont have chia seeds or flax meal or seeds, you can do without.

Ingredients
Vermicelli- 1 cup
ghee- 1 tablespoon
sugar- 2 tablespoons
chia seeds,sunflower seeds, cranberries, almonds,pecans,flax seeds or meal-2 tablespoons each
milk- 3 cups

Method- Toast the vermicelli in ghee until it turns brown. Allow to cool first. Boil the milk,add the sugar and
reduce flame. Add the vermicelli and boil for 10 minutes until the vermicelli is cooked. Add rest of the ingredients and
mix well. Enjoy!
