Performance Benefits

The combination of protein from the eggs and halloumi, along with carbohydrates from the ciabatta, offers sustained energy release, supporting endurance and stamina during physical activities. This works as a great recovery meal, as the protein helps in repairing the muscles after exercise.
Health Benefits

Eggs contain essential vitamins and minerals such as vitamin D, vitamin B12, choline, selenium, and phosphorus. These play vital roles in various bodily functions, including bone health, brain function, and metabolism. Halloumi contains B vitamins, including B12, which is crucial for maintaining nerve function and producing DNA.
Expert Tips

To add more protein, try adding some turkey, chicken or bacon. Try using peppers, tomatoes or other veg for more micronutrients too!
