Eating healthy and sustainably with a limited budget can be incredibly challenging, especially with rising prices. But with careful planning, shopping smart, cooking at home and minimising waste, you can still achieve a #BalancedDiet on a budget! 🍴💚

Freshly made pasta in the department today as part of a food product development project! Third year pupils had a go of our new pasta machines so that they can use their pasta in a carbonara later this week 😍🤌🏻 #food #product #development #foodtechnology #skills #fresh #pasta
