WHAT TO EAT ON THE PLAN
1Breakfast: include protein and healthy fats to prevent the mid-morning crash. Try a vegetable omelette with avocado, or Greek/ coconut yogurt with grated apple, cinnamon, nuts and berries. Or leftovers – ‘Far healthier than most of today’s easy breakfast options,’ says Dr Chatterjee.
2Keep an emergency snack pack with you at all times. ‘Mine includes a tin of wild salmon, almonds and nut butter,’ he says. Or try hummus with carrots, broccoli and cucumber, or a handful of nuts.
3Come up with five simple meals you can whip up in 15 minutes as your go-to staples, focusing on a rainbow of vegetables. For example, butternut squash soup (add coconut milk for extra healthy fats); chicken/ feta salad and a handful of nuts; pan-fried salmon with rainbow roasted vegetables; or lamb/ lentil stew with added root vegetables and a side of steamed greens.
