Pink piggy
smoothie
This smoothie is a quick, tasty and nutritious
breakfast, particularly suitable on a hot day.
You will need a high-powered blender, as it is
quite thick and a normal blender will battle.
• Add your milk of choice (cows, almond,
coconut, soy, etc.) to the blender.
• Throw in frozen strawberries and bananas
and blend!
• Add strawberry pieces for ears and nose,
and cut up blueberries for the nostrils,
mouth and eyes.
croissant
crab
Croissants are not the healthiest option because
they are made with butter and are high in calories,
but they do offer a delicious boost to an active
day for your child - maybe a weekend treat.
• The croissant can be filled with low fat jam or
cream cheese.
• Bananas and blueberries for the eyes and
strawberries for the pincers.
Toasty chicken
little
Grumpy avocado
toast
Toasted multigrain or brown bread “disguised”
by delicious smashed avocado.
• Smashed avocado: ripe avo, lemon juice,
a touch of olive oil, salt and pepper
(sometimes even a dollop of cream cheese).
• Boiled egg for the eyes.
• Sweet peppers for the nose and legs.
Here is a tasty, wholesome and filling breakfast!
• • Prepare poached eggs and cut the sides off
the eggs to keep a solid white piece for wings.
• • Smash up the egg with a little mayonnaise
and place in a small cup to create the body
shape (chicken mayo would work, too).
• • Add carrot slivers for the tail and beak,
lettuce for the eyelashes, and two baked
pretzel rings for the eyes.
• • Pop on to a healthy slice of toast.
