my mom made fresh sunnundalu at home and is insisting i eat one daily for strength. im in 3rd trimester now. is it good to have during pregnancy ya should i go easy on it? thoda confused.
When my mother made fresh sunnundalu for me, I felt so pampered and happy eating them. It really helped with my sweet cravings and gave me energy. Enjoy this traditional treat, it is filled with goodness.
When my morning sickness was bad, I couldn't eat regular meals, so my MIL gave me sunnundalu for quick energy. It was dry but easy to eat in small bites. If you can digest it, it is a great healthy snack.
Beta, sunnundalu is a very good traditional sweet, it gives strength to the bones and back. Have one in the morning with warm milk. Just don't overeat if you have high sugar, rest it is very safe.
I'm currently 6 months pregnant and my mom also wants to send me these! Are they made with jaggery or sugar? I want to try them but worried about gaining too much weight quickly.
I tracked my nutrition on my app and found that urad dal (which is used in sunnundalu) is great for iron and protein. Having it in moderation is perfectly fine. Just make sure to check with your doctor if you have gestational diabetes.
Oh, I loved sunnundalu during my pregnancy, my mom sent a big dabba! It is made of urad dal and ghee, so it is actually very healthy for back strength. Just eat one a day bcoz it is quite heavy, but enjoy it!
