Why is Nutrition Important
We know that after a long day, healthy cooking might be the last thing on your mind, but it has real benefits. Ensuring you get the right nutritional values helps brain function, wellbeing, and fitness. There is no point going to the gym if you're not going to eat properly afterwards! We caught up a Nutritionist Student for more info and top tips on how to squeeze in the goodness when the takeaway is calling your name.
Money's tight
Being in a cost of living crisis is a a scary time, that student loan seems to be going less and less far! We get it, all of our recipes are based on accessibility of knowledge, ingredients and importantly price, always.

How to shop successfully
Ensuring you are able to cook for nutritional and budget success, how you shop is super important.
​
1. Meal plan, decide what you're going to eat and plan your list around that, this creates way less unnecessary buying, plus you can use your leftovers.
​
2. Go with a budget and stick to it, avoid the middle aisle at all costs!
3. Cook meals around cupboard staples, by making use of what you already have you save money and food waste. We've got some amazing recipes to help with this.
