Recent discussions around ultra-processed foods (UPFs) highlight their potential health risks like cardiovascular disease and cancer. According to registered nutritionist Rhiannon Lambert, while UPFs have certain advantages, they should not replace whole foods in diets. In her book "The Unprocessed Plate," Lambert discusses the importance of dietary balance and offers strategies to reduce UPF consumption through homemade recipes. One highlighted recipe is for easy yogurt flatbreads, demonstrating how cooking from scratch can bring healthier options into our meals.
I think UPFs have a place, but they should not be consumed as frequently as they are, and they have become a problem in the sense that most people are now missing out on whole foods by opting for ultra-processed foods instead.
Processing food can preserve it better, or make it more accessible, she said.
These flatbreads are such a useful recipe to have up your sleeve, and you can use whatever flour you have to hand.
