The Do Diet: Tired of shelling out for expensive salads or not feeling full after a trip to a greasy fast-food joint? Save calories (and money!) with these fast and flavourful pack-and-go solutions

When eating healthy means cooking at home, sometimes the "healthy" part falls by the wayside -- you're busy, you worked late, you don't have the right ingredients in your kitchen. That's why meals you can make in large batches, and then freeze for later, can be so handy.

Some of what makes Indian cuisine so delicious — rich and creamy sauces, ghee — also makes it heavy on calories. But Indian food also has a lot to offer for good health: fibre-rich lentils and beans, spices full of antioxidants, lots of fresh veggies. Bal Arneson, star of the Food Network show Spice Goddess, balances these two factors in her Indian cooking, and you can do that yourself with her new book, Bal's Quick and Healthy Indian.
