On Christmas morning, amidst the holiday festivities, one essential element takes centre-stage: breakfast.
Whether you’re plotting a grand Christmas brunch or a quick morning bite, pivot towards choices that won’t weigh you down.
Former royal chef Darren McGrady gives insight into the Royal Family’s approach to festive breakfasts, balancing opulence and smart nutritional choices.
According to McGrady, royal women receive a light breakfast of sliced fruit, half a grapefruit, toast, and coffee in their rooms.
In contrast, male royals gather for a robust breakfast at 8:30 am, featuring eggs, bacon, mushrooms, kippers, and grilled kidneys.

Instead of heavy, greasy options, opt for a light breakfast featuring toast or yogurt paired with a medley of fresh fruits, taking inspiration from the health-conscious choices of the Princess of Wales.
Or consider swapping the traditional heavy English breakfast for a straightforward and tasty alternative: baked tomatoes on toast.
This choice not only kickstarts your day on a healthier note but also preps you for the Christmas feast without emptying your pockets.
McGrady said that outside the Christmas period, King Charles opted for healthy breakfasts, despite being a “foodie”.
Fresh plums from the garden were a royal favourite, poached and served with juice and muesli.
These options not only provide a healthier start to the day, unlike the full English breakfast with its meats and trimmings.
Whether you choose a lighter Christmas morning or go for something heartier, slimming down your breakfast helps keep festive weight loss goals on track.
