Our CEO Zoe had a brief stint in hospital recently after she went and fractured her back (ouch!). Let’s just say the hospital food left a lot to be desired…
We have another friend who works at a hospital in Australia who shared a typical daily menu with us. With pancakes, canned fruit, cakes, biscuits, puddings and ice creams on the list, we can certainly see Zoe’s point!
Got a hospital visit coming up or know someone who does? These seven healthy hospital dinners made at home will ensure you or your loved one don’t check out of hospital sicker than when you checked in.
Green Minestrone
Who says superfoods have to be expensive?! This lean green minestrone machine comes crammed with nutritious veg, all at under $2 a serve. Make with our Easy Chicken Stock for even more good stuff packed in.
Chicken and Tarragon Casserole
Whack this one in the slow cooker for an easy bowl of goodness that will heal from the inside out.
Pumpkin + Kale Dhal
A hearty and satisfying meal for vegetarians and meat eaters alike. It’s got plenty of indian spices to give a warming kick.
Lemon + Cinnamon Lamb Shanks with Gremolata
Another slow cooker wonder that makes mealtime a breeze. Pop it on in the morning and dinner’s done in time for evening hospital visits.
Curried Cauliflower Soup with Super Seed Sprinkle
This comfortingly creamy veggie soup comes with a bonus seed sprinkle for extra nutritious crunch.
One-Pan Greek Lemon Chicken + Rice
One-pot meals are some of our very favourites. Minimal fuss, maximum flavour. And so easy to tote to the hospital ward.
Better Than Mum’s Shepherd’s Pie
What hospital patient wouldn’t enjoy a meal like Mum used to make? This IQS take on a family classic is packed with extra veg in the base and the top, making for a wholesome nourishing recipe sure to get anyone back on their feet in no time.
