Remember, everyone requires a slightly different amount of nutrients each day. For example, we don't all need to eat the same amount of calories Some of the recipes within this plan serve anywhere from 1-6 people. You can either reduce the quantities to serve one person or look at the chef’s tips to see if the recipe can be made in bulk and frozen for a later date. This will also help reduce waste. If you can, buy meat in bulk and freeze in portions. Separating larger portions of mince - for example, into two plastic containers - can save pounds over the year.By suggesting homemade alternatives to kids’ favourite foods, not only can your children enjoy the things all their friends are eating, but by making some subtle changes, they can enjoy them without risking blood sugar spikes.
