Farmhouse Breakfast Week 2012

Come and see us at the farm shop and cafe and get your Breakfast Week off to a healthy start.
We're putting on a special menu in the cafe but be sure to book a table to avoid disappointment.

You can also come and sample the new 'Breakfast King' Sausage which we have created especially to mark the event. The 'King' combines a wealth of mouth-watering fry-up favourites all under one skin and contains bacon, mushrooms, tomatoes and baked beans.

“Eat Breakfast like a King, lunch like a Prince and dinner like a Pauper”
It’s a well known phrase, but do you follow it? So... why breakfast?

The word breakfast literally means 'breaking the fast'. Overnight our energy stores are used up, so eating breakfast will top up the energy that has been used whilst sleeping and give us the energy needed to start the day.

Breakfast helps to stabilise your blood sugar levels which control appetite and energy so you should be raring to go and not feel the need to snack mid-morning!

Top Tips for a healthy breakfast

What is a healthy breakfast?

• Breakfast is the first meal of the day, eaten within two hours of waking and providing calories in the range of 20-35% of daily energy needs.
• Eating bread and cereals for breakfast provides carbohydrate for energy, vitamins, minerals and fibre.
• Having a piece of fruit starts you on your way to 5-a-day.
• Milk and yogurts provide protein and calcium.
• Beans, eggs, low fat bacon and kippers all provide added protein and can add a bit of variety to breakfast.
