Vegetable pulao is a wholesome dish that can be had for lunch. Heat oil and roast cloves, cinnamon and cardamom. Mix boiled veggies, green peas and some onions sautéed in ghee.

Add some spinach or drumstick leaves while mixing the chapathi dough. Make small balls from this dough. Roll a dough ball into a chapathi and place some yellow lentils boiled with salt and pepper in the center. Place another chapathi over it and press the edges. Rub some ghee and cook both sides. Stuffed chapathi could be enjoyed with a curry. The chapathi would be soft and fresh if wrapped in soft muslin cloth. You could also pack yoghurt raita which is refreshing.
Khichdi is prepared by cooking rice and pulses together. Yogurt and coriander chutney are the perfect accompaniments.
