But as an occasional treat I don't see why Pen shouldn't have his cake and eat it. The omega-3 fats in Arctic char have a variety of health benefits in the long term, but are of more immediate benefit to Pen through their ability to provide him with much-needed calories.
Blueberries are rich in anthocyanidins, which are believed to give some protection against the effects of glare on the eyes. While I'm a relative fan of meat, sausages tend to be stacked with salt, and also may contain preservative chemicals which have been linked with an increased risk of cancer.

Taken as a whole, there's little to recommend this dish, I'm afraid. Haggis traditionally contains sheep innards such as lungs and hearts, and this dish is clearly not for those whose stomachs are of a delicate disposition.

The protein in the chicken will provide nutritional building blocks that he can use to maintain his muscles to some degree. Normally, I'm not a fan of such pre-packaged food. However, given the constraints, this dish makes good sense. Nuts, and macadamias in particular, tend to be rich in healthy monounsaturated fat, and also offer other nutrients, including magnesium which is also important for muscle health and potassium, which support the heart and circulation.
Most importantly for action men like Pen, the fatty nature of these natural foods helps pack considerable quantities of healthy calories into a relatively small space.
