Build a balanced plate: a visual guide
A simple ½-¼-¼ method so dinner is nourishing without maths.
The ½-¼-¼ plate:
- ½ non-starchy veg (colour + fibre)
- ¼ protein (beans, tofu, eggs, fish, chicken)
- ¼ smart carbs (brown rice, whole pasta, potatoes)
Add a thumb of healthy fats, water, and enjoy without guilt.
