Objectives
The objectives are:
- Identify and select local ingredients appropriate to the specific requirements of senior citizens that are part of the recipe for the pre-cooked food dish.
- Select and analyse the valorisation of meat off-cuts arising from processing in the handling primarily of pork, but also of beef and lamb, as a source of protein.
- Optimise and adapt the process involved in producing pre-cooked food dishes in order to meet the nutritional requirements of senior citizens.
- Provide a response for people who live alone or with their partner, and for residential homes with their own kitchen or those with the capacity to include pre-cooked food products in the diet that they provide for their users.

Context
The main objective of the 5-PROTEG project is to develop pre-cooked food dishes that provide the nutritional requirements necessary for the segment of the elderly population in good health (seniors).
The project is presented by TALLER DE CUINA BON GUST, SL (BONGUST, a company with experience in the precooked dishes sector) and MATADERO FRIGORIFICO DEL CARDONER, SA (MAFRICA, a company in the meat sector specialising in the slaughter, cutting and processing of meat products).
The two companies have designed a working plan involving 5 activities to study and design the best strategy in the preparation of pre-cooked dishes to meet the nutritional needs of senior citizens, in partnership with the Eurecat technology centre and with the coordination of INNOVACC.
At the same time, 5-PROTEG aims to investigate the possibility of valorising ingredients (meat off-cuts) to make application of a health declaration on pre-cooked food dishes possible.
