If you've got big eaters, want leftovers or have a smallish number of people (4-6), then go for the higher of the two amounts for meat and roast potatoes. We suggest 240g (3 x 80g) total vegetables per person, 80g is how much you need to eat to make it count as one of your five-a-day, if you’d rather count the number of veg per head, then our handy guide will help. If you’re serving more than three vegetables, you can reduce the weight of individual ones.
Print out this page, fill in your quantities and take it shopping. All quantities are based on adult-sized portions.
