The protein transition in healthcare calls for meals that are plant-based, nutritionally complete and tasty, whilst maintaining protein quality and good nutritional value. RECIPE, developed by Wageningen University & Research, assists chefs and dietitians in this regard with an innovative, AI-driven recommendation system. By combining insights into protein quality, nutritional value and taste, the system supports the creation of plant-based meals that meet patients’ needs. In this way, RECIPE is accelerating the transition to sustainable menus in more than 50 healthcare institutions.
