FREEZER AISLE swaps

With the right picks, you'll save money and eat more healthily too

- 

While frozen foods might get a bad rap at times, some products are actually healthier than their fresh counterparts - you just need to know which ones to pick. There are also clever ways to supercharge your freezer drawer. Try our swaps on everyday items - you'll lower your calorie intake in places, and get a nutritional boost at the same time. The best bit? You'll often save cash in the process. Here's what to fill your trolley with...

Eye-enhancing veg
* SWAP 80g carrots (27 cals)
* FOR 80g spinach (22 cals)

Beta-carotene, an antioxidant found in carrots, decreases in frozen products. Keep eyes healthy instead with a leafy green like frozen spinach, which contains lutein and zeaxanthin.

Fish supper
* SWAP 4 battered fish fingers (268 cals)
* FOR 4 breaded fish fingers (236 cals)

Fish is packed with nutrients, but choose breaded and you'll avoid the saturated fats in batter.
