Your Task:
Highlight and determine which nutrients you have consumed in that meal. Use the internet to help you find which nutrients each food contains.
Note: for each ingredient, you should try to highlight the most dominant nutrient present. For micronutrients (vitamins and minerals), try to include them where possible, as these numbers will be smaller and most likely never have a high value in any of the ingredients.
Here is an example:
