Portion plate

A clever way of checking if you have a balanced diet

A Portion Plate

Are you worried that you might be eating the right food but in the wrong proportions?  Here is a fun plate that helps you!  

The recommended balance for your meals is generally accepted as:
Half – vegetables
Quarter – protein
Quarter – carbohydrates

Popularly known as “half, qarter, quarter”!

There are quite a few of these plates around now.  I particularly like this one because typical foods are illustrated, and this is a great help to jog your memory.

This was my dinner the other day – very tasty.  Made me cut down on the potato portion, I must say!
