This is a guest post by Dr Hemapriya, author at My Little Moppet. I like her blog because she incorporates the knowledge about healthcare into her blog. She tries to focus not only on the taste but also the nutrition aspect of the recipes. This gives the parents a chance to see what are they feeding their kids.

INSTANT OATS DOSA Recipe

 

 

My 5 year old son is a very picky eater and making him eat dinner at night is a herculean task. He has his milk and dozes off. I tried a lot of recipes that would entice his taste buds to complete his dinner. No success!! He will take a bite or two then reject the whole meal. So when the following recipe was shared in my Facebook Group I just thought to give it a try.

Lo !! My son liked it and devoured it with much gusto!

It is very simple to make and can be made instantly.
