Chana Masla--Points?

  • Does anyone know the points for this Pakistan dish?

    It is one of my favorites but I have not been able to find the points.

  • The last time I had a single serving of it, it was 3 points. But it depends on how it is made.

  • Was that just for the chickpea part or for both the rice and peas. Also how big do you think that serving was... 1/2 cup or a cup.



    Thanks for all your help!
  • It didn't have any rice. And, I think it was a cup.

    Do you have a Trader Joe's nearby? If so, go into the dried foods section where they have Indian and Thai Food, etc and look for a brand called Taj Mahal. Each box has two servings. It takes a minute or less in the microwave after you remove the Channa Masala from the silver pouch and it is delicious. I even put a tablespoon of yogurt when it is done as it can be a little spicy for me.

    No Trader Joe's here. I will have to see if I know someone who lives near one and have them send me some. Or look around here.

    I love Chana Masla. I will count 3 points for it and add the points for the rice. Also maybe learn to skip the rice. It is so wonderful. I think may the serving too and bring it home and weigh it. So I know how much I am getting.


    Thanks again!!!

    I was incorrect regarding the name of the Chana Masala. It is Tasty Bite not Taj Mahal. Go to www.tastybite.com You may be able to order directly.
