Congrats Srivalli, way to go. Wishing you many more beautiful years in this blogsphere. For the first day of blogging marathon, am posting this wonderful and very interesting masal vadas i prepared few days back for our snacks. Dont get shock on reading this post title,yep this vadas goes for cooked soya chunks aka meal maker with soaked and grounded chickpeas.

Actually i want to make some crispy vadas with soya chunks since a long, but finally i tried this vadas along with chickpeas instead of channadal, oh boy these crispy beauties are super addictive. Kids at home simply enjoyed having this yummy vadas and seriously we couldnt able to stop with one. They were super addictive, serve these vadas with a cup of tea for your snacks also as a starter.Check out the other marathoners running this 20th edition of blogging marathon here.Sending this addictive crispy vadas to Srivalli's Kid's Delight-Anniversary Potluck Party and to my own event CWS-Chickpeas guest hosted by Kavi of Foodmania, to Priti's Festive Food Ganesh Chaturthi.
