Talking of fruit and veg…

I’ve had lots of school meetings recently with groups or families of schools to talk to them about how the Sheffield – Let’s Change4Life programme can support their school. I had an exciting meeting last week with two families of schools who are taking part in a fruit and vegetable growing and cookery programme with Nonna’s Restaurant. Some of the schools have chosen to grow Mediterranean vegetables like they use in the restaurant. The Chefs from the Nonna’s will them visit the schools to demonstrate how they cook with them.

Talking of fruit and veg I have decided that every time I blog I’ll count how many portions of fruit and vegetables I’ve eaten the day before to see if I’m meeting the recommend 5 A DAY. Yesterday I had a banana, a pear, a handful of grapes and broccoli so I managed 4 portions, I did have an apple with me also but think it is still in the bottom of my bag! I’ll try a bit harder today!

Did you know that increasing your intake of fruit and vegetables by just one more portion a day can have a positive affect on your health. Why not try it and see if you can build up to 5 A Day too!
