Vegetarian Stroke Survivors can now access Stroke Friendly Recipes...
Just click on Eat Well on I-REBOUND.
That’s right Thrill Seekers and Fellow Time Travellers, these are other reasons why I-REBOUND is now the “Everest” in “After Stroke Resources’ in Australia.
In the ‘Eat Well” section you will find a selection of recipes which have been developed for vegetarians and vegans who are stroke survivors.
Plus, we have a selection of Gluten -Free recipes as well.
But first a word from two key stakeholders....
Before diving into some wonderful recipes, let's hear from Associate Professor Lesley MacDonald Wicks, Advanced Accredited Practising Dietician and Nutrition Researcher, Newcastle University and Karly Zacharia, PhD Graduate in Nutrition and Dietetics, Newcastle.
These two Stroke researchers and academics played key roles in the design and development of I-REBOUND, in particular the section on “Eat Well”
A simple, nutritious breakfast that you can customise and make your own source of fibre.
Hint: You may wish to pre-prepare a dry mix of oats, seeds, and bran/puff rice in proportion for convenience and just use a cup measure each time. Saves time!
Now let’s tease your vegetarian taste buds…
You cannot go wrong with these all-time favorites.
