Paella: Nutrition Facts and Calories
Paella is a Spanish rice dish that is popular in the UK, with packaged versions typically found in the chilled ready meal section. These products usually contain rice, a protein source such as chicken, seafood, or chorizo, and vegetables like peas and peppers, often seasoned with saffron or paprika. The ingredient list will show the main components, with the order indicating relative quantities. For example, rice is typically the first ingredient. The nutrition label provides information on energy, fat, saturated fat, carbohydrates, sugars, and salt per serving. Some products may also highlight fibre content. As with many ready meals, it is common for these to be a source of salt, and the label will show the amount per serving. The NHS Eatwell Guide advises that free sugars should not exceed 5% of total dietary energy, and adults should have no more than 6g of salt a day. The ingredient list may also indicate the presence of allergens, such as shellfish or gluten, which are important for dietary management. All values are shown per 100 g so products can be compared.
