Healthy meals

Embrace different herbs and spices in your cooking – not only are they a source of nutrients, but they’re a great way to get flavour into your meals without needing too much salt.

It’s super-easy to make family mealtimes healthier with just a few simple swaps. Think sweet potatoes instead of regular ones, wholewheat pasta and rice instead of white, and fruit-infused water instead of juice.

You can absolutely still enjoy your favourite comfort food and still keep it healthy and balanced. My lovely lighter carbonara embraces humble garden peas that are high in thiamin, a B-vitamin that helps our hearts to function properly.

Try to go meat-free at least once a week. Fruit and veg are nutritional powerhouses packed with vitamins and minerals. My brilliant veggie burgers are a great swap and a guaranteed hit in the Oliver household.

Check out this quick and easy super food noodle salad from Jamie magazine – it’s a brilliant weeknight supper everyone will love, and it embraces vitamin-packed frozen veg for convenience. Get stocked up
