Tell us a better Sunday Breakfast than a hearty plate of crispy Dosas served alongside a bowl of flavourful Sambhar and Coconut (and/or Tomato) Chutney, we'll wait. Having a South Indian meal once every weekend has become a ritual of sorts and if it were up to us, we'd have it every second day of the week as well. But alas, it's impossible to order in that often and work-life doesn't allow us much time to prepare everything from scratch. This is where these God-sent instant meals come into play. We've rounded up some of the best ready-to-cook meals and breakfast mixes that can be prepared in a jiffy, just in time before your morning meetings.
