Chapter 1: Introduction

Fast pace of modern life has paved way for a culture of fast foods and aerated drinks. We have arrived at a point in time where the very mention of food brings the thoughts of burgers and fried chickens. Mankind, in its quest for modernity, has ignored the healthy options for long, resulting in increased prevalence of obesity, diabetes, cardio vascular diseases, hypertension, depression and a lot of other diseases which were rarely heard of so far.

In addition to unhealthy food habits, the sedentary lifestyle of the urban professional has exacerbated the issue. This is especially true in the case of those who work from 9 to 5 sitting at their desks in the office. The lack of strenuous physical activity to burn out their calories in addition to the fatigue the person feels at the end of the day rarely leaves someone time to plan out a healthy meal. This presents a dilemma to the working parents who want to ensure the health and wellbeing of their family along with inculcating healthy food habits in their children.

The recipes we provide you will give you mouthwatering dishes prepared in a small-time period using healthy raw materials and cooking methods. If you were to follow this book, you and your family will have a more fulfilling life with good health and wellbeing without compromising on the quality and taste of the food.
