π Hello friends! I’m your writer and well-wisher on this 7-day dieting journey!
For the last 3 days, we’ve enjoyed savoury and healthy dishes. But today I thought — why stick to the same routine? Let’s add a little sweet joy to our diet plan, without any guilt!
β¨ So on Day 4, I bring you a dessert that’s as kind to your taste buds as it is to your waistline:
