Hot Dinners
Our catering team provide delicious cooked lunches. The meals are nutritional, very well cooked and presented, offer excellent value for money and are prepared from fresh produce everyday. Please contact us or Find out more from Nottinghamshire County Council
Packed Lunch
A balanced packed lunch should contain:
- starchy foods – these are bread, rice, potatoes, pasta and others
- protein foods – including meat, fish, eggs, beans and others
- a dairy item – this could be cheese or a yoghurt
- vegetables or salad and a portion of fruit
Starchy foods are a good source of energy and should make up a third of the lunchbox. But don’t let things get boring. Instead of sandwiches, give kids bagels, pitta bread, wraps and baguettes. Use brown, wholemeal or seeded bread, not white bread
