- RECIPE: Power lunch
If you’re after a lunch that will help stave off the 3 ‘o’clock slump, try this power lunch on for size.
Eggs are a great source of protein, and contain a wide range of essential vitamins and minerals.
And combined with salmon this lunch will also give you your omega-3 fatty acids to help support your heart, brain and joint health.
If you do want a little carbohydrate boost you can add some roasted pumpkin.
Add extra greens like broccoli or asparagus.
