Natural yoghurt with a drizzle of honey and a few walnuts.

Baked white fish or chicken casserole with soft-cooked vegetables, mashed sweet potato, and a small side salad.
📝 Important Notes
Protein needs may increase with age to help maintain muscle mass — include a protein source at each meal. Calcium and vitamin D are important for bone health. Stay well hydrated — the sense of thirst may diminish with age. Soft textures may be easier to manage if dental or swallowing concerns are present.
