‘On my cheat days it’s rice, rice and more rice’
She said, “So usually I end up skipping breakfast, which is a very bad thing but I like gluten-free toast or cereal. I love my green juices but I don’t have them as much as I should. For lunch, I like a salad. I like sandwiches, I really love sandwiches… I have a light dinner but sometimes what ends up happening is when I miss breakfast and then I’m working and then I have a light lunch, I end up having a heavy dinner… I do have mini snacks but they are more like nuts… I’m not very gluten tolerant so I can have gluten-free rotis. On my cheat days, it’s rice, rice and more rice with potatoes… my favourite dish is sambar sadam – sambhar rice and a potato curry on the side.”
