3 Go for home-made meals: Avoid processed foods like bread. Instead go for home-made chapatis, and stuff them with simply cooked vegetables.
4 Mix a little: Don’t build your meals around high-in-fat meats like beef, pork and lamb. Choose recipes that use small amounts of meat to flavour dishes, or base the dishes on veggies, beans or grains.
5 Plan your meals in advance: Spontaneous expenditures can expand your waistline as well as your budget. Plan your meals well in time to be able to use everything you buy.
