Rice and dhal also makes for an economical choice if you're trying to make your food dollar stretch as far as possible! But even better than being cheap, low-fat and healthy is the fabulous smells that will fill your kitchen when you use so many spices. So, heat up some rice and dhal, close your eyes, and imagine you're in India!
