               I am happy to be part of Srivalli's BM 25 th edition.So I will be blogging for consecutive 3 days ,from today.I am going to post about "Kids Lunch box " ideas,for the next 3 days..When coming to kid's lunch,they always wish to have mess free foods or fingure foods.So I decided to post some mess free foods or one pot dishes.Kids love to have paneer in any form.So Today I am going to post Paneer Kathi rolls.We can prepare kathi rolls with all purpose flour or wheat flour.I have added some veges to sneak in some nutrients .The filling can be altered by the availability of the veges .We can also use chicken,egg pieces instead of paneer.
