Chris and Jordan are in the south west, just outside the city of Bath, with the Forsyths, a busy family in need of a mealtime miracle. Richard is a freelance writer, and Helen runs her own marketing agency. They are parents to 13-year-old Eddie and ten-year-old Elsa. Like a lot of working parents, they struggle to find a work-life balance. Richard works from home and is usually responsible for dinners, but it鈥檚 a job he dreads, as the family all have different dietary needs.

Richard is a meat eater, Helen is vegan, and both children are vegetarian. Finding something they can all eat is impossible, so Richard relies on convenience food that he knows the kids will eat. When Helen gets home from work, she also heads for quick vegan convenience food. This lack of meal planning and reliance on quick fixes is costing them time and money, and after being hit hard by the pandemic, they want to get to grips with their spending. But Richard and Helen have lost their love of cooking and find it a chore. Chris wants to prove it is possible to cook quick and delicious meals and bring the fun back to the kitchen. Meanwhile, Jordan鈥檚 mission is to get Eddie and Elsa in the kitchen and show them they can take some of the pressure off Dad by making their own quick and easy snacks.

Does food being plant-based mean it鈥檚 a healthy choice? Chris visits Jordan in the Eat Well kitchen to find out. Chris rustles up a plant-based dish for Jordan that he thinks all the Forsyths would enjoy.
