DESCRIPTION:

OMG! The flavour combinations of the runny fried Egg, the soft Sweet Potato, the bite of the Chicken, creaminess of the Avocado the distinctive richness of the Goats Cheese with the blend of Mushrooms, Spinach and Onions is one hell of a healthy taste explosion! Whilst you one person could put this away by themselves (think about an Intermittent Fasting day where you only have dinner, for example), it’s designed to be a good size to share between two people.

Great for Lunch, Dinner or Post-workout, due to the high protein combined with sufficient carbs to spike insulin and protein synthesis. This meal will keep you full, and with a smile from ear to ear!

To make a more even split, we may want to add one more fried egg (70kcal).
