Copy LinkBack to School Breakfast and Lunch Ideas
As summer draws to a close, there is for many the inevitable turning of thoughts to back to school. So many factors now play into a successful school year and while uniforms, books and bags are gathered in preparation, key to that success is a well-balanced nutritional diet.
Active from the moment they arrive at the school gate, through afterschool activities and evening homework, children’s days have never been so full. A breakfast and packed lunch of wholegrains, protein, slow release carbohydrates, fruit, veg and minimal sugar are a must to ensure energy and concentration levels stay at the levels that are needed for what is now a very full school day.
With that in mind, our Thursday Tasting for the next two weeks will look at both breakfasts and packed lunches ideas, offering healthy and satisfying options that will keep your students sustained throughout the day.
From local wholegrain Flahavans Jumbo Oat Flakes, Crinnaghtaun Apple Juices whose apples are handpicked, milled and pressed, the only addition being vitamin C to our own Ardkeen Quality Food Store Overnight Oats, Organic Granola, Seeds Bars and Nut Spreads… and that’s just for breakfast.
With lots of lovely food to taste and some new products to try, pop in for a taste and a chat and bring the little ones in too.
