Is bread and coffee Daddy’s go-to-breakfast option?
While bread sold in the market is full of additives and preservatives, try making one for him on this special occasion! Add flaxseed meal to give Dad an extra boost of omega-3 and fibre. Get creative by letting Dad choose his preferred filling, whether it be a sweet fruity jam, peanut butter, honey or savoury tuna, chicken salad, egg. These combinations fare much better in nutritional content compared to the typical coffee sandwich combo.
