Mixed Vegetable Paratha

Mixed Vegetable Paratha this is my recipe for this month Blogging Marathon for flat bread theme. Usually aloo paratha is my all time favorite but when I tried this mixed vegetable paratha, I liked the mixed flavors of the all vegetables. This will be a healthy option for breakfast and also a whole meal when you serve this with a dal, pickle and curd.

I buy these whenever I visit Patel Brothers - an Indian supermarket chain we have here. I really should just make them myself...ah but laziness takes over :)
