If you want lots of energy for the day, then you must kick-start your metabolism, that means making time for the most important meal of the day; Breakfast. Sugary cereals floating in milk will slow you down, but a good dose of protein and high-vitamin vegetables will get you going. Spinach is a recognised Superfood, containing amazingly potent antioxidants. It’s the single food most commonly associated with reducing the risk of cancer and heart disease. Even if you dislike its bitter taste, you will love this. The eggs and pesto disguise the bitter flavour, making Popeye’s favourite dish taste great!
