Oats help reduce cravings, balance blood sugar, they are also full of fiber and these are good for health.

If you are craving for cheeseburger which is heaped with fat and has ingredients of poor quality, then you should better go for a veggie falafel sandwich which is great and is like a burger. You can have it piled up with onion, cucumber and tomato and also with raita and yoghurt or a salad of low calorie to go with. This can be served in pitta pocket wholemeal. It is a bet you would not miss a burger any day.
