Munch That Lunch Guidance Notes:


The Eatwell Guide shows what a healthy diet should look like over the course of a day or
more, not necessarily at every meal time. Try to think about the key messages of the Eatwell
Guide when designing your lunch box;
o Eat at least 5 portions of fruit and vegetables every day
o Base meals on potatoes, bread, rice, pasta or other starchy carbohydrates; choosing
wholegrain versions where possible
o Have some dairy or dairy alternatives (such as soya drinks); choosing lower fat and
lower sugar options
o Eat some beans, pulses, fish, eggs, meat and other proteins (including 2 portions of
fish every week, one of which should be oily)
o Choose unsaturated oils and spreads and eat in small amounts
o Drink 6-8 cups/glasses of fluid a day (don’t forget to include a drink in your lunch
box!)
o If having food and drinks high in fat, salt or sugar, have these less often and in small
amounts.
Now use the Eatwell Guide and your imagination to help you design your healthy balanced
lunch box. There are lots of different ways to make a healthy lunch box - try and make yours
as fun and exciting as you can!
GOOD LUCK!
