Meal 1: Lentil Soup , Whole Wheat- Semolina Bread, Sauteed Broccoli  and Red Onion.

·        Heat the soup gently.

·        Warm the bread.

·        Sautee the broccoli and onions in a little oil or butter.  Add a splash of water if necessary to steam the broccoli through .  A brief lidding can help too.  Season with salt and finish with a little olive oil if you like.

Meal 2: Dal Makhani, Brown Basmati Pilaf, Sweet Potatoes Roasted w Cumin and Turmeric

·        Heat the dal gently  A microwave would do nicely actually.

·        Heat the sweet potatoes in a sautee pan with a little butter over medium heat.  Toss and allow to heat through and become fragrant, but be careful to not burn the garlic in the dressing. Add butter if necessary.  Use of a lid could be applied here too.

·        Heat the rice in oil over high heat in a sautee pan. Allow it to heat and crisp up a little.  Add a splash of water if necessary, but not much!
