Breakfast matters

Print

A healthy breakfast can give you and your family the energy you need for the day ahead. That’s why people say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day.

Why eat breakfast?

Get energy and essential nutrients. If you, or the kids, skip breakfast you miss out on these nutrients and may not make them up throughout the rest of the day.
Regulate your appetite and avoid over-eating later in the day. A high-fibre breakfast can help you feel fuller for longer. People who eat breakfast regularly tend to have a healthier body weight than those who skip it.

What makes a great breakfast?

An example of a tasty and healthy breakfast during the week:

2 slices of wholegrain toast from the Warburtons breakfast range, spread with Flora
A glass of juice or a piece of fruit
A tub of low-fat yogurt

This breakfast would give you omega 3 and 6, calcium, iron, fibre, Vitamin D, B Vitamins, folic acid, magnesium, and zinc.

Prepare breakfast in advance

We all lead busy lives, but rather than rush or skip breakfast, prepare as much as you can the night before:

Get bowls and spoons ready for cereal or porridge
Wash, slice and portion out fruit
Hard boil eggs
For older kids, have a selection of "do-it-yourself" breakfast foods, such as cereal bars, fruit, milk, juice and muffins

Healthy weekend breakfast

At the weekends we tend to have more time to spend on breakfast. Healthy and tasty choices for weekend breakfast include:

Scrambled eggs on wholewheat bread, spread with Flora
Smoked salmon on wholegrain bagels
Fruit salad with yogurt
