Everyone knows how important it is to eat 5 portions of fruit and veg a day – doctors go on about it, dieticians go on about it, even supermarket packaging goes on about it. The problem is that sometimes it proves quite difficult; you want to eat all different things or it gets boring, but it can become quite tedious thinking of new and exciting ways to prepare them.
Well those of you who have a Jamie magazine subscription are in luck. The article “Simple Ways to 5 A Day” gives great ideas for ways to make sure that you get exactly what the doctor ordered.
One portion for an adult is a minimum of 80 grams, so ideally we all need to be eating around 400 grams of fruit and vegetables a day. It’s not really that much when you think about it, but do you ever weigh your vegetables to make sure you have the right amount? No.
Jamie magazine tells you how to know exactly what you’re consuming, and how to tell that you’re getting your five a day.
If you’re feeling a bit more carnivorous, you’ll be pleased to know that the June/July 2011 issue is a BBQ special, full of great ideas for making your barbecue stand out as the one all of your guests will be talking about for the rest of the year.
There are recipes for everything from chilli chicken with drunken pinto beans to squid with tamarind recado and pineapple salsa – a bit different from beef burgers and spare ribs hey?
