The “My tummy diet in a box” (www.mydietinabox.co.uk), in collaboration with Danone Activia, the yoghurt people, promises to deliver: “great food to your door. Healthy. Mouth-watering. Irristible." The meals provided (with my tasting notes) over the two days were as follows:  Breakfast: protein-rich granola with berries and plain Activia yoghurt (so far, so good, but I wouldn’t advise the granola for anyone with less than super-strength teeth. Maybe it’s all part of their cunning plan to encourage you to chew each mouthful 100 times)  Lunch: coronation chicken with mixed bean salad (perfectly harmless)  Snacks, morning and afternoon: Basil and pine nut humus (it wants to be guacamole, but it just isn’t) and protein shake with fruit yoghurt  Dinner: salmon fillet with Chinese noodles (greasy yet watery at the same time)  Breakfast: apple and pear compote with orange and cardamom, with granola topping and yoghurt (spicy and full of flavour - I would make this myself)  Lunch: roast vegetable quinoa and feta cheese salad (delicious and a big enough portion to sink a battleship)  Snacks: banana and ginger flapjack (fantastic for sweettooths like me, but without the guilt factor) and protein shake with fruit yoghurt  Dinner: beef lasagne (minus the cheese, minus the flavour)  At the end of the trial, I was left feeling virtuous and well fed, and it certainly sustained me over two days of long-distance running. But, really, there has to be tastier, healthier, food than this. This sort of regime would suit those with little time and inclination to cook, and there seem to be other, more flavoursome dishes in the range, but I want more from nutritious food than this.  I want to track down those healthy, but at the same time, delicious recipes: the sort of thing you would order in a restaurant, but not feel guilty after eating. I want the healthy AND tasty equivalent of that platter of beef, the roast potatoes, and the chocolate pudding – and so help me I am going to find it.
