No-Cook Weekend Lunch:4 Easy Recipes You Can Make In Minutes

Weekends are meant for slowing down, but spending a long time in the kitchen may not always be part of the plan. If you want a filling lunch without turning on the stove or oven, a few simple ingredients can come together into surprisingly satisfying meals. 

   

 Chickpea And Veggie Salad
Ingredients: 1 cup boiled or canned chickpeas, 

1 small cucumber (chopped), 

1 tomato (chopped), 

¼ cup onion (finely chopped), 

1 tbsp lemon juice, 

1 tsp olive oil, 

salt and black pepper (to taste) 

and coriander (chopped)

Method: 

Add the chickpeas and chopped vegetables to a bowl. 

Drizzle with lemon juice and olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and toss well. 

Finish with fresh coriander. Better to add the seasonings, just before serving.

 

Paneer And Mint Chutney Wrap 

  

Ingredients: 

1 whole-wheat roti or ready-to-eat tortilla, 

100 g paneer (cut into thin pieces), 

1-2 tbsp mint chutney, sliced cucumber and tomato, lettuce or cabbage and chaat masala (optional). 

Method: Spread mint chutney over the roti. Add paneer, cucumber, tomato and lettuce. Sprinkle with a little chaat masala, roll tightly and serve.  

 

  

 Corn, Avocado And Bean Bowl
Ingredients: 

½ cup canned sweet corn (drained), 

½ cup canned kidney beans or black beans (rinsed), 

½ avocado (chopped), 

½ cucumber (chopped), 

1 tbsp lemon juice,

salt and pepper 

Coriander leaves chopped

Method: 

Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and toss gently. 

Add lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste. 

You can serve it as a salad or scoop it into lettuce leaves for a light lunch.  

Curd And Cucumber Sandwich 

  

Ingredients: 

4 slices whole-wheat bread, 

½ cup thick curd, 

1 small cucumber (thinly sliced), 

1 tbsp chopped coriander, 

black pepper and salt. 

Method: 

Mix thick curd with coriander, salt and pepper. 

Spread it over the bread and layer with cucumber slices. 

Place another slice on top and cut into triangles. 

For better texture, use thick or hung curd so the sandwich does not become soggy.
