Easy evaluation of menus against the DfES food and nutrient standards
Menus are evaluated against the food standards, with results presented in a format that is simple and clear to understand.
Similarily, the nutrient standard report provides the results in simple tables and colour bar charts. Values are provided as actual values and as percentages.
Useful tools to develop menus
There are a number of helpful features that let you search for replacement items based on nutritional value, food group or dish category. More advanced searches can be made for results that match a number of criteria, such as high in zinc, iron and low in cost. These results can be narrowed by food group or food category.
Preview of changes
Before making a change the software shows in a colour bar graph how the change will affect your compliance with the nutrient standards.
Access to cooked values
It is simple to give a dietitian or nutritionist access to verify the calculated analysis of your recipes. This ensures your data is as accurate as possible.
Menus and recipes
Your account will come preloaded with a sample menu and a number of recipes. You can add your own menus and recipes. You can also import menus and recipes to your database.
