Two jobs, two kids, and way too many conflicting schedules -- doesn't leave much time to prepare wholesome family meals.
 
India's tasty flatbread, naan, to the rescue!
 
Here are two balanced, tasty meals, which are easy and quick to prepare. They call for an Indian-style flatbread, naan, which is now available in stores across the country.
 
"White bread is so.... 2007!" jokes Jim White, food critic, columnist and current spokesperson for FGF Brands, the bakery which makes International Fabulous Flats Tandoori Naan.
 
"Naan, by contrast, are extremely versatile, says White. They can be used as the base for a tasty pizza for dinner, or used to make wraps for a quick lunch."
 
International Fabulous Flats Tandoori Naan, are the only commercial naan actually baked in a Tandoor oven, which is what gives them their sultry, smoky flavor. These flatbreads contain no preservatives, no hydrogenated oils and no trans fats.
