With Ash Wednesday only two days ago, we’re now on the official countdown to Easter. The shops are already stocked with tasty chocolate eggs, eggs that I imagine you’d have no problem getting your children to eat. But what about the other types of eggs? The (in my opinion) slightly less delicious, but much healthier, chicken eggs can be part of a healthy balanced diet for our little ones. So, with that in mind, here are 5 ideas of how to make them a little more appealing…
Bell pepper flowers
Not only has this dish got eggs, but it includes peppers and greenery too… winner!

Chicken and the egg
These lil’ chickens in their eggs are probably too adorable to eat if I’m honest.

I ♥ eggs
This fantastic idea for egg in toast would work with all sorts of shapes. Just use your kid’s favourite cookie cutter. You could even use the first letter of their name. Personalised egg!

Coloured eggs
Again, this one can use your kid’s favourite colours!

Egg-lephant? :/
And my favourite is this awesome egg circus! Although if you try out something like this, you can’t tell children not to play with their food again ;)

And for dessert…
… how about this imitation egg, which is also a healthy combination of yoghurt and peach. Perfect!
