Ragi Roti
Foods to Focus while Assembling Lunch For Cancer Survivors
1. Choose Whole Grains : jowar, bajra, buckwheat, ragi, oats and barley are wholesome options over refined ingredients like maida and its products (bread and naan). You can use ingredients like oats to make tempting fare like Oats Mooli Roti.
Alternatively grind the flours of these whole grains and store them.
When you want to cook something healthy for lunch, just combine 2 to 3 flours of your choice, toss in a veggie or two, make dough, roll the parathas and cook and enjoy them hot.

From a simple Jowar Bajra Garlic Roti to something unique like Broccoli Paratha can be created in your own kitchen.
To make them more flavourful learn to add the correct flavours. Add a mild touch of oregano to create delicacies like Herbed Capsicum Paratha or use veggies like spinach and sweet corn along with a hint of spice to make Masala Roti.
2. Proteins are a Must for Lunch : Protein is an important nutrient for all the cells of the body. It is required to build new cells and also support in their maintenance.
Protein is also required to build hemoglobin present in red blood cells (RBC). Hemoglobin, in reality, is the oxygen transporting protein in our body.
Since all cells need oxygen to live, protein is a must for every cell of our body.
Be mindful while eating. Hand-pick vegetarian over non-vegetarian sources. Amongst the vegetarian protein options, you can choose between dals, sprouts and dairy products.

On days you reach out for non-vegetarian options, choose eggs and fish over meat always. While cooking, ensure to not opt for deep-frying or use oodles of fat.
Go ahead and use these protein rich ingredients in different ways to please your palate.
Use masoor dal to make Garlicky Lentil and Tomato Soup and moong Dal to cook Suva Moong Dal Subzi. Sprouts can be used in interesting ways too. Try making Sprouts Tikki or Sprouts Pancake if you are bored to eating plain sprouts.
3. 1 to 2 Servings of Veggies are a Prerequisite at LunchTime : Veggies are always promoted by dietitians as they are loaded with nutrients to support various functions in our body.
Moreover, they also abound in antioxidants – compounds which fight cancer cells and stop body cell damage. Common antioxidants are vitamin A, vitamin C, lycopene, flavonoids, Lutein etc.
