Cornish Food Market

The well-known phrase "Eat Breakfast like a King, lunch like a Prince and dinner like a Pauper” resonates well with me and I follow it where possible. Breakfast is certainly the most important meal of the day for me, as my mother used to say, 'you can't leave the house without eating breakfast!', and I agree - I literally cannot function now without breakfast in the morning.

Courtesy of HGCA (http://www.shakeupyourwakeup.com/why-breakfast) I've listed some top reasons as to why you need to have breakfast in the morning:

* 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.

To help you stick to your hearty and healthy balanced breakfast routine, we've carefully selected some key items, including some tasty Cornish items from our local suppliers:

Milk 2 pints of Whole milk from Trewithen Dairy*
