Low Calorie
Low Calorie meals focus on volume, flavour and satisfaction rather than restriction.
If you’d like to see how this fits into a full weekly plan, read our guide to weekly meal planning for UK families.

Why we created it
Extreme calorie cutting leads to burnout. This category is built for sustainability, using smart swaps and proper planning.
Combined with weekly planning, it helps reduce food waste and impulse eating.
Most of us in the UK are stuck in the same pattern: the same dinners on repeat, a big food shop that costs a fortune, and food quietly going off in the fridge. We’re paying more than we need to, then throwing too much of it away. Juna is built to change that, with planned variety and a weekly, shop-aligned plan so you spend less and use more.
