Twinkle Khanna started an interesting challenge called 'What's In Your Dabba' on her digital initiative Tweak India platform and straight-away nominated husband Akshay Kumar and friends Malaika Arora and Sonali Bendre in her first post. The nominated celebs are required to share healthy recipes from their lunch or dinner dabbas, recipes they swear by, as part of the challenge. Twinkle, who composed her post in her signature humorous manner, wrote: "I may occasionally be a 'VADA PAV-ERED' girl but I also carry some healthy treats in my dabba like these yummy beetroot tikkis!" For Akshay, Malaika and Sonali, she added: "I'd love to know your favourite healthy treats."

Thank you @twinklerkhanna for nominating me. Eating clean is not an option but a way of life for me. Here's a glimpse at what made me spring into action this morning Sharing how you can also make my favourite avocado on toast and my chia pudding. It's healthy, tasty, and keeps you full for hours, not to mention high in protein *Avocado on toast* Mash a ripe avocado. Add little olive oil, I like to add Rapeseed oil to it. Add a pinch of Himalayan Pink Salt, & a dash of chaat masala if you like things flavoursome. Spread the mashed avocado on two slices of toasted barley bread or any multigrain bread. Garnish with pomegranate. *Chia Pudding* Soak 3 teaspoons of chia seeds in walnut milk, overnight. Add a little honey or cinnamon to it. Top with seasonal fruits of your choice, preferably berries. Voila Bon Appetit Now you know what's in my dabba, I nominate @katrinakaif @bhumipednekar and @shikhardofficial to give me a peek inside their dabbas. It would be great to know more healthy food options. Don't forget to share a photo with #WhatsInYourDabba and tag @TweakIndia
