Food Project

Find an optimal set of staple foods then find a set of recipes that use them.

Foods

Nutritional Consideration

• GI and GL - load is more important than index
• balance of P/C/F looking for 35%/25%/40% by calorie or 46/33/21 by weight
• micro-nutrients, particularly iron, A, zinc,

Other considerations

• Cost
• Shelf life

Spices

These will be handled separately. I do want to look at health benefits, but the main objective here is to make recipes palatable.
