Introduction<\/h2>\n

People who are looking to lose weight often find it difficult to sustain their meal plans due to the lack of recipe ideas after a few days. What starts off with tasty recipes eventually tapers down to boring food, often demotivating them. While it is highly recommended to work with a certified nutritionist, having a few healthy yet easy-to-prepare recipes for busy weeknights is essential to prevent yourself from ordering unhealthy food from your mobile apps.<\/p>\n

To help you, we\u2019ve got some easy, healthy and nutritious recipes for those busy workdays and schedules!<\/p>\n

Healthy and Easy Weight Loss Dinner Recipes<\/h2>\n

The dietary goal for people on a weight loss plan<\/a> or wishing to lose a few kilos is to consume nutritious foods while staying within their caloric limit for the day. This can be possible with some one-pot meals like the following:<\/p>\n

1) Moong dal or besan chilla with veggies and paneer<\/h3>\n

A popular snack item, moon dal or besan chilla is a favourite across the country and a great one for weight loss. While moong dal and besan are rich in protein and fibre, adding vegetables and paneer to them with a few spices only increases the nutritional value of this meal. This satiating meal can be eaten for dinner and takes less than 30 minutes to prepare!<\/p>\n

2) Missal<\/h3>\n

A popular all-day snack in Maharashtra, the missal is a dish that requires more attention in a weight loss diet. An impromptu curry that is made from sprouted matki ( a type of legume) topped with tangy gravy, chopped onions, and tomatoes, the missal is truly a filling, delicious, healthy and tasty meal for your busy work nights.<\/p>\n

While the missal is typically eaten with bread, you can discuss its inclusion in your meal with your nutritionist after calculating your allowed number of calories per day.<\/p>\n

3) Grilled paneer with veggies<\/h3>\n

The key to a healthy weight-loss meal is its ability to keep you full while ensuring you stay within your permissible caloric intake. This requires you to add a significant portion of protein and fibre to your meal. An excellent one-pot meal for this criteria is grilled paneer served with some freshly stir-fried vegetables of your choice, like carrots, beans, capsicums, etc. Have some room for carbs? Add in a whole wheat roti or some quinoa.<\/p>\n

4) Vegetable khichdi<\/h3>\n

An all-time favourite, the vegetable khichdi is the perfect balance of fibre, carbs and proteins. Khichdi is usually prepared with dal, rice (or a grain of your choice\/mixed grains) and several chopped vegetables. This ensures you get all the necessary nutrients, it keeps you full and yet prevents you from gaining weight. If you are concerned about the caloric value of your khichdi, speak to our nutritionists today!<\/p>\n
