But by focusing on hero whole foods and nutrient-rich ingredients, you can make your portions go a long way. Nutritional expert Angela Dowden explains exactly what nutritional challenges to be aware of, and how to tackle them. These 80 recipes focus on nutrient-dense, whole-food ingredients that pack protein, fibre, vitamins, and minerals into manageable servings. Packed with ideas for low-effort and no-cook recipes, as well as easy additions to any meal, this is the smarter way to eat smaller portions.
