Feeling ready for a nutritional reset? The start of the year is the ideal time to revitalise your eating habits and get back on track, and this Lemony tortellini soup will help you do just that.
I’m not one for a complete January detox. I'd rather encourage habits you can sustain consistently for the next 12 months, embracing a good balance of macronutrients (carbs, protein and fats) and micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) and keeping well-hydrated.
Focussing on a wide variety of fresh ingredients and cooking from scratch will help you avoid ultra-processed foods and nutrient-poor calories.
A better-nourished body for the long term is a more resilient one, so getting your diet right for the new year will not only give you improved energy levels but also help prevent injury.
This Lemony tortellini soup with spinach and dill uses eggs rather than cream for the sauce, which boosts the protein element of this dish.
Light on the stomach and very tasty, it’s a great weekday training meal to keep your glycogen levels topped up and your muscles healthy.
