LUNCH CRUNCHER

How to make your calories go further

JUST two small Scotch eggs add up to more than 500 calories, which aren’t calories well spent when you consider you could have scrambled eggs on toast, yoghurt, fruit and popcorn instead. The second lunch is also healthier — it has around a third less cholesterol-raising saturated fat (6.4g versus 9.8g) and is lower in blood pressure-raising salt (1.5g versus 1.8g). You’ll also get one of your five-a-day from the second lunch and nearly a half of your daily fibre.
