Simple switches to make your diet more nutritional
Nutritional Switches
DID YOU KNOW?
1 or 2 everyday switches can really make a difference and go a long way to making each day healthier, and increase nutrient intake. Simply switching sugary cereal to plain cereal could reduce an individuals monthly sugar intake by 83 sugar cubes.
PRACTICAL TIP
Looking to make your diet more nutritional, try these easy switches to increase your vitamins and minerals intake:
*Switch from white paste to wholemeal pasta to increase fibre and B vitamins.
*Switch 1/2 the beef mince in bolognese to lentils to increase fibre, Vitamin C, Vitamin B6 and Magnesium.
*Switch white potatoes to sweet potatoes, as they count towards your five a day and are high in Vitamin A.
CHEF'S TIP
Always write yourself a menu before shopping, this reduces any impulse purchasing.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT
Adding more vegetables to recipes, such as bolognese, can bulk up meals and make them go further. Freeze extra portions so you have healthy nutritional ready meals for those days you don't have time to cook.
