Still on the journey of simplifying meal planning.
Meal Preps
- Boiled chana
- Boiled quinoa
- Boiled rajma
- Soaked chia seeds
- Greek yoghurt
- Pickled cucumber
- Pickled carrots
- Pickled ginger, chillie, lemon
- Chopped paneer stored in water bath - ready for saute'ing with a little piri-piri
- Fresh fruit like pomegranate on top
- Tahini?
- Purple cabbage
- Corn
- Roasted peanuts
- Steamed Corn
- Dressings
Breakfast
Green juice - Add everything to blender at night - in morning, just mix and filter.
1 Fruit + Boiled eggs/omelette + Guacamole + Tea/Cookie
Or, (as I mostly do not want an egg)
Millet cheela (made with any sprouted millet flour, bhuna jeera, ajwain), paired with any leftover veggie, or guac, and/or greek yoghurt raita (made with 1 tsp chia seeds, jeera, black salt, pudina powder, and some random nuts/seeds and kishmish). I have been having this most mornings now, and it really works. Chia seeds add a lot of fiber.
School Lunch
Chocolate Peanut Butter Toast + Fruit
Or, Pasta
Lunch
Trying to go higher in protein. So thinking daal-lunches and millet-dinners.
So, some of the possibilities:
- Rajma-greek yoghurt-Rice
- Mexican spread using Rajma & beetroots
- Black/white chickpeas + greek yoghurt
- Chikpeas flour tikki with beetroots and nuts
- Quinoa/couscous salad + Sauteed Paneer
- Rice-dahi-nuts/seeds (in summers)
Dinner
- Quinoa/Millets + Paneer + vegetable soup
- Tikki + paneer dip + salad + vegetable soup
- (for quick dinners) Rice + Sambar + Aloo/Fried egg (Sambar contains any available veggies)
This keeps my mental bandwidth clear for planning other things. and I can of course make something fancier any day.
