Wake up to an alarm, rush through your morning routine - walk the dog, get ready for work, drink some tea, shove in some breakfast, send the kids to school, instruct the maid... whatever it is that you need to do before you can finally step out. Its a big race to get out of the house on time, so you can spend the next one hour inching along in traffic, wishing you could have had an extra hour in bed instead. Work constitutes long hours in front of a computer, waiting endlessly for elevators, queues at the coffee machine, hurried lunches and dreaming about the weekend! Its finally time to take off in the evening, and you leave work full of plans of a fun evening - a movie perhaps, or visit the new restaurant, a nourishing dinner with the family, maybe invite some friends over. But then you have the arduous task of getting home, and plans change to slouching in front of the television, order in some pizza, serve the family some instant food, and socialize on Facebook instead. Nobody dreams of the mundane evenings we live every day, and yet, somehow, we are all stuck with the routine, Monday to Friday, waiting for the weekend of the mid-week holiday.
Traffic in Bangalore is out of control - and yes I know we all are part of the problem when we drive to work every day instead of using the public transport. Solving the traffic problem is another debate altogether, but we also need to look at what this does to our lives, our choices and our health. This is the very reason why Slyly Simple came into being - to make it possible to eat healthy, tasty and easily on a regular basis, in spite of all the problems that routine, traffic and pressure throw at you.
At the end of your day, the easiest thing to do is to grab a packet of instant noodles from the shelf. Now replace the noodles with a packet of fresh whole wheat pasta, and replace the taste maker with a dollop of fresh pasta sauce - the same effort results in a burst of flavour packed with health, freshness and nutrition. Its easy enough for anybody to make, and healthy enough to be eaten every day.
Experiment, add your own special touch - a dash of cream, some extra cheese, sauteed vegetables, meat, fish - with the basics in place your meal could only go from great to better. Its homemade, its gourmet, its exotic - bring a splash of flavour and fun to your mundane routine slyly and simply!
