NUTION SESSION 2

Hello Everyone,

🍎 Grocery Shopping

How are you getting on with your grocery shopping? Are you meal planning and matching your meal plans to your grocery shops?

😃 Are you venturing down new aisles and putting more whole foods in your basket like fruit and vegetables of various different colours?

😃 Are you choosing lean cuts of meat like chicken, Turkey, 5% beef mince and fish instead of processed meats like sausages, bacon and ham?

😃 Are you buying more wholegrain foods like oats, quinoa, brown rice, wholegrain breads and pasta?

😃 Have you added nuts, seeds, live natural yoghurt and beans, lentils and chickpeas to your grocery shops?

Easy ways to eat more fruit and vegetables:

😃 Buy frozen mix berries and defrost the amount you need overnight to mix with porridge in the morning.

😃 Have a salad or soup for lunch instead of a sandwich. Add plenty of lean protein like chicken/beans/lentils/chickpeas to keep you fuller for longer.

😃 Make more casseroles or stews with lots of vegetables.

👩‍🍳 Learning more recipes

One of the easiest ways to learn new recipes is to watch them being made on video:

(You can ditch the butter, use 5 percent fat beef mince and add half a plate of steamed vegetables on the side)

Looking forward to seeing you all on Friday 15th December at 1.30pm for the next nutrition session and in the meantime on Weds 6th and 13th December at 10am for exercise sessions.

Best wishes,

Hazel
