Planning

Choosing
When choosing ingredients, choose low fat/ sugar/ salt versions, where possible.
Preparing
When preparing food, limit the amount of fat added and replace salt with other flavourings, such as herbs.
Cooking
Use cooking practices which reduce the amount of fat needed and minimise vitamin losses from fruit and vegetables.
Serving
Serve the meal in proportions which reflect current healthy eating advice. Do not forget to include a drink.
