Helpful resources to support ‘eating the rainbow’
In my previous post I gave some suggestions on how to increase the quantity and variety of fruit and veg in your diet. One of these was to eat the rainbow, and I want to share two free resources I have created with you here to help with this. One is a food guide by colour, to help inspire you to make wider food choices, and the other is a weekly tick sheet so you can track and gain an overview of whether you are managing to eat the rainbow!

Tips to eat more fruit and veg

Variety is the spice of life
I have a question for you: if you could list the fruit and veg you eat regularly, so every week, how long would that list be? For many people, this list is really short and under a dozen different fruit and veggies eaten regularly.
‘So what?’ You might say. ‘If I am getting my daily portions then that is good enough isn’t it?’
Well in this post I would like to make the case for not only increasing the quantity of fruit and veg in your diet, but also the variety.
