The need to provide information on dietary lipid quality that can serve as a baseline for developing food-based dietary guidelines is crucial to managing chronic diseases. This study aimed to determine the fatty acid, lipid profiles, and health lipid quality of selected Nigerian composite meals and soups. The fatty acid, lipid profiles, and health lipid quality of the meals were evaluated. Results showed that saturated fat was predominant in beans & corn (19.6 g/100 g) and egusi soup (24.8 g/100 g). Monounsaturated fat was predominant in bread & beans (17.2 g/100 g), and polyunsaturated fat was predominant in boiled rice & fish stew (19.3 g/100 g). Cholesterol and free fatty acids were predominant in ogbono soup (3.8 and 94.9 mg/100 g) while triglyceride was predominant in akara &agidi (21.4 mg/100 g). Banga, oha, and egusi soups had no atherogenic and thrombogenic indices. These findings are essential in the dietary management of chronic diseases among the Nigerian population.
