Most balanced meals include vegetables or fruit, a protein source, carbohydrate foods and something for flavour. The exact mix can shift depending on what is available and what you prefer that day.

Vegetables for volume and colour
Protein from fish, eggs, beans or poultry
Carbohydrates such as rice, oats or potatoes
Flavour from herbs, spices and oils
