Caribbean & Mediterranean Food | Healthy Eating Guide
An evidence-based guide to healthy eating
NCIM has worked with Bristol Black Carers CEO Anndeloris Chacon to create a new Eat Well Guide which incorporates both Caribbean and Mediterranean diets, as well as creating a Caribbean Food Groups Guide.
Join Anndeloris and NCIM in this webinar as we share the background to this innovative initiative as well as the exciting, nutritious and mouth watering results!
All webinar attendees will receive a free copy of the guide after the event. All NCIM Members already have access to the guide via the Membership Site (see Resources section).
This initiative was funded thanks to the Social Enterprise Support Fund 2020/21.
We were asked what a good project for us will be to work on together and because of the timeframe and the pandemic. Anndeloris suggested looking at food. In discussion we realised there were many similarities in Caribbean and Mediterranean food.
The main differences were the combinations and the way the food was prepared. We also wanted to make healthy eating a joy and not a task thus the beautiful photographs.
We tested the layout, format, and information before printing and all the feedback was very positive. A few of the comments were –
“I will try out one of the recipes tonight.”
“Just looking at the booklet I want to eat.”
“It is informative in a positive way.”
We do hope you find it useful.
