PITTA PIZZA

CHERRY TOMATOES

TINNED PINEAPPLE CHUNKS

PlAIN POPCORN

WATER

Where possible try and use wholemeal or wholegrain versions to increase fibre intake

Cheese is often high in fat and salt, try using stronger tasting cheese and use less of it, or try reduced fat varieties

If your child really doesn’t like water, a compromise could be giving them sugar-free squash 2 - 3 times per week
