You use a tiffin service or office lunchbox — what's one simple rule you follow to keep the meal reasonably healthy?

Lots of people rely on daily tiffins or canteen thalis at work, and you can't always cook. What's the one practical rule you stick to when ordering (for example: skip the rice on certain days, always ask for extra salad, choose roti + dal over heavy gravies)? Share the actual thing you do and why it works for you.

Editorial

Rule: make protein + vegetables the biggest part of your tiffin; treat rice/chapati as the side. Practically: order dal/egg/paneer/legume curry + double veg, ask for half rice or 1 roti. Why it works: protein and fiber increase satiety, steady energy and better blood‑sugar control (NIN/WHO nutrition advice), and reduce reliance on refined carbs and excess oil.
