Mixture / chivda namkeen

One serving of Mixture / chivda namkeen — 1 small bowl (30 g) — comes to 163 kcal, 3.6 g protein, 13.5 g carbs and 10.5 g fat. Scaled to 100 g it works out to 543 kcal and 12 g protein, which makes it a moderate protein source for a snack item. That single serving is about 10.9% of a 1,500 kcal day and 8.2% of a 2,000 kcal day, so it's more of a filler than a target-hitter on protein without much extra planning.
