Reflections
Overall, I'm really really surprised at how bad my diet is. I didn't expect it to be perfect but not this bad either! Oh sodium, dear sodium. I definitely have to start eating fruits and vegetables again, and take more milk! I don't exercise a lot either, since I'm not in a sports cca, so I definitely think it's crucial for me to take care of my diet and maintain a good balance before my health goes on a downward spiral!
The Food Intake Assessment is definitely the most useful tool in my opinion, because not only does it tell you all about the different nutrients that you take and how much you're getting, it also gives you tips (at the bottom after the analysis) on how to try and improve your diet such that these areas will go down/up. The food pyramid, like I mentioned, is also something easy to remember and you can take with you 'on the go' to constantly make sure you maintain a good balanced diet! The Energy and Nutrition Composition tool is also really effective in telling you about your individual meals that you enjoy to take, so you can learn more about them and how to make them healthier!
I like my one-dish meal, honestly, because I like pasta! :) That was also one of the main reasons I chose this as my dish! It's also more or less a base dish that is already slightly healthy, so a lot can be added/done to it to make it not only tastier, more presentable but also more balanced and healthier! (:
