The final day of Growing Talent 21’s Holistic Week included the excellent nutrition on a budget workshop delivered by Kate from Healthy Bites Nutrition.  A registered nutritionist, Kate devised this workshop especially for Growing Talent Associates showing them that good food doesn’t have to be expensive to be nutritional and can be prepared quick and easily too!

 

After sharing lots of ideas for healthy snack swaps as well as packed lunch ideas, Kate ran a practical to make a healthy pot noodle using a variety of fresh, canned and frozen vegetables, dried herbs/spices and limes.
