Navaratri menu plan for 9 days

Navaratri sundal, sweet, snack plan: 

Some sundal recipes like chana dal, moong dal, peanuts required no overnight soaking. Even green mung needs just 3 hrs minimum soaking time. All other sundals need overnight soaking.

As I am a south Indian, I have given some menu that will work for my home, if this helps some of you too, I will be more happy. You can just keep this as a guidance and change according to your family preferences. Keep your menu simple and quick ones, as there will be extra work as well as  food from prasadam after offerings.
