Start day with a healthy egg
Students got the chance to make a variety of breakfast dishes and these little baked egg cups, were their favourite. “Eating a good breakfast gives you the energy you need in the morning and keeps you filled up.
It also prevents you from getting a hunger attack and eating unhealthy snacks.”
