December has challenged everyone’s stomach and gut! Therefore, we have been looking out for some healthier foods helping your body getting back to normal by putting some delicious vitamins, minerals, and protein in it.

There has been quite a hype around quail eggs for some time. Whilst we agree it’s a delicious protein source, nice on the eye and a welcome difference to chicken eggs, we wouldn’t want you think that chicken eggs are any less good! They two of them taste surprisingly similar and require the same cooking time. Chicken eggs are also lower in cholesterol than quail eggs – so make sure that you don’t have too many of them.

Let us know on our social media how you found our Beetroot salad with Quail Eggs!
