18.01.2022 DAY 5: Biripi Aboriginal Corporation Medical Centre Today we met with staff and clients of Biripi ACMC, a place that provides culturally appropriate health and well-being services to their community. Topics of the day included:... Chronic inflammation and ways to reduce this Healthy fats The health benefits of legumes and how to include them in the diet - in really delicious ways! Increasing food variety and making the most of every mouthful Easy meal ideas that require limited preparation We had participants who tried legumes for the first time (and loved them), and those who don’t like tuna but loved the tuna risotto and want to cook it at home - practical nurition education at its best!

18.01.2022 Have you planned your meals for the week ahead? Planning is the best thing you can do to: Save money Reduce food waste... Eat well Our winter meal plan isn't about following a 'DIET' It shows you how to incorporate similar ingredients in different meals over the week. Who else buys a pumpkin and only eats half, leaving the rest to rot in the crisper?? The seasonal veggies that feature in meals across the plan are: Carrots Pumpkin Celery Broccoli Mushrooms Baby spinach Download your winter food waste meal plan here https://www.thewholesomeco.com.au/food-waste @lovefoodhatewastensw #NewFoodREsolutions #FoodWaste #ReduceFoodWaste #FoodSmart #FridgeRaidFriday #WasteNotWednesday #lovingYourLeftovers #PerfectPortions #foodwaste #foodwastewarriors #KnowYourWaste

18.01.2022 One on one sessions in the home allows for consistent messages and a safe space to learn new skills. Today a ricotta and strawberry whip was created for the first time along with the repeat skill of a pan fried piece of salmon

15.01.2022 FROM BOLOGNESE TO COTTAGE PIE Here is one for the weekend... Make a double batch of bolognese sauce to enjoy pasta one night and a cottage pie the next. Your family or future self will thank you! ... Some pointers Before purchasing any vegetables, see what needs using up to make the bolognese sauce e.g. zucchini, carrot, capsicum, celery etc. Add a can of brown lentils (don't forget to drain and rinse first) to bulk up the bolognese and reduce the cost per serve To make the cottage pie pour leftover bolognese sauce into a greased baking dish, top with mashed potato and grated cheese. Bake in the oven for approx. 20 minutes at 180/160C fan-forced. If you live on your own, freeze portions of bolognese size and cottage pie for quick and easy meals. Cook once, cook smart! @lovefoodhatewastensw #NewFoodREsolutions #FoodWaste #ReduceFoodWaste #FoodSmart #FridgeRaidFriday #WasteNotWednesday #lovingYourLeftovers #PerfectPortions #foodwaste #foodwastewarriors #KnowYourWaste
