CELEBRITY chef Rosemary Shrager has been inspiring pupils to start the day with a healthy breakfast.
The television personality dropped into the Yorkshire Agricultural Society’s Farmhouse Breakfast event in Harrogate today. She spoke to children at Oatlands Community Junior school in the town about the importance of eating at the start of the day and provided some delicious breakfast ideas.
She then joined them in some food workshops with some North Yorkshire food producers at the Great Yorkshire Showground.
“Breakfast is such an important meal of the day, it is my favourite, and I can’t believe many people start the day without it,” she said.
“It is vital to educate children about the importance of eating a healthy breakfast - without fuel a machine will not work, and without food, a body will not work properly.”
The Year 3 and Year 4 pupils had a go at butter-making, creating fruit and vegetable smoothies and making sausages.
They then tucked into a delicious breakfast of wholegrain cereals, bread, bacon, sausages, cheese and fruit.
Farmhouse Breakfast Week aims to raise awareness of the origins of food.
