In my opinion you can use any combination of millets, pulses and legumes in your health mix. But make sure it is good quality ingredients. If you are not sure of the quality you can Wash all your dals and dry it under sun. Try to get organic ingredients.

Ingredients right measure

I have given the measure which I like, i like to add a good amount of nuts in my health mix for taste and health.

Roasting or Sun drying

You can either roast the ingredients in a dry pan or sun dry. I prefer roasting it in a dry pan because of the taste it provides and increases their shelf life.

Grinding

I like to grind my health mix in a powerful blender till it is super fine. if you are making a larger batch you can give it to mill for grinding.
