PROTEIN FORTIFIED RECIPES

I love cooking and often do recipe development for various clients.

Also I often work with patients who need more protein to promote healing.


Things I often use are dried  milk powder -(sorry but could not find a good picture of this)

This can be added to ordinary milk as well as to mashed potatoes plus puddings and soups

NUTRITION AND HYDRATION WEEK 2018

This is so brilliant I thought people may like early notice of the date.

The mission is to create a global movement that will reinforce and focus, energy, activity and engagement on nutrition and hydration as a fundamental element of maintaining the health and well-being for our global community.

Date for your diary – Nutrition and Hydration Week 2018 – 12th – 18th March

Nutrition and Hydration Week aims to highlight, promote and celebrate improvements in the provision of nutrition and hydration locally, nationally and globally.

Originally focussing on improvements in nutrition and hydration across health and social care we are now spreading our wings …….

Over recent years we have been so delighted that so many other organisations and sectors have got involved in Nutrition and Hydration Week that we now welcome and encourage everyone to take part in highlighting and promoting nutrition and hydration throughout the week.

Nutrition and Hydration Week has become a truly global event.

Our Aims & Charter demonstrate our commitment to supporting improvements in nutrition and hydration for the global community.
