DIY Indian Lunch

Many often think that Indian food is junk food... loaded with calories and fats... well.... its not entirely true! I had my Indian Lunch today, D.I.Y style... plus its more healthy than your regular mee pok ta or hokkien mee or maybe even yong tau hu! More often than not, its a matter of choice whether you want your food to be healthy or not. Instead of dipping into curry loaded with coconut milk, why not use healthier alternatives?
1. Curry Tuna Light: Ready to Eat
~12.7g Protein : 4.0g Fats : 2.0g Carbs; per 100g
2. Chapatti: Just Heat it over fire without any oil added.
~ 3g Protein : 1g Fats: 9g Carbs; per 45g

3. Palak Paneer (Spinach with Cottage Cheese): Ready to Eat, microwave
~ 8g Protein : 6g Fats : 38g Carbs; per 240g
4. Chilli Beans: microwave
~ 6g Protein : 0.5g Fats : 21g Carbs, per 125g
Conclusion: Every meal can be made healthy but at the same time yummy! Sinful food is always yummy is nothing but a myth!
