It’s important to include a wide variety of foods in your daily eating plan to make sure you’re meeting all your nutrient and fibre needs. For instance, red meat is recommended three to four times per week, and fish recommended at least twice a week. Healthy Choice have a wide variety of meals to choose from, including red meat, chicken, fish, lamb and vegetarian options. All Healthy Choice meals are low in fat and most are low in saturated fat, provide 20% of your daily kilojoule and fibre needs, and are made with a range of healthy ingredients such as vegetables, lean meats, rice, pasta and noodles. So Healthy Choice meals (even the creamy ones) can form part of any balanced eating plan, as long as you also include sufficient amounts of foods from each of the major food groups such as breads and cereals, vegetables, fruit, meats and dairy, and healthier fats each day.
