This year, Valentine’s Day falls on a Saturday and what better way than to spend your morning than treating your other half to a delicious breakfast in bed?

We have chosen our favourite breakfasts for two to give you some ideas on how you can make this Valentine’s Day special.  And the best part – you won’t be left feeling guilty after eating them…..

1. Veggie Breakfast Bake = 127 calories per serving (Makes 2 servings)

  • 2 large field mushrooms
  • 4 tomatoes, halved
  • 1 garlic clove, thinly sliced
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 100g bag spinach
  • 2 eggs
  • Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put the mushrooms and tomatoes into 4 ovenproof dishes. Divide garlic between the dishes, drizzle over the oil and some seasoning, then bake for 10 mins
    Meanwhile, put the spinach into a large colander, then pour over a kettle of boiling water to wilt it. Squeeze out any excess water, then add the spinach to the dishes. Make a little gap between the vegetables and crack an egg into each dish. Return to the oven and cook for a further 8-10 mins or until the egg is cooked to your liking.

2. Breakfast Smoothie = 123 calories per serving (Makes 2 servings)

    apple juice or mineral water, optional
  • runny honey, to serve

3. Banana and Blueberry Breakfast Muffin = 179 calories per serving (Makes 12)

  • 2 large eggs
  • 150ml pot natural low-fat yogurt
  • 50ml rapeseed oil
  • 100g apple sauce or pureed apples (find with the baby food)
  • 1 ripe banana, mashed
  • 4 tbsp clear honey
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 200g wholemeal flour
  • 50g rolled oats, plus extra for sprinkling
  • 1½ tsp baking powder
  • 1½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • 1½ tsp cinnamon
  • 100g blueberries
  • 2 tbsp mixed seeds (we used pumpkin, sunflower and flaxseed)
  • Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Line a 12-hole muffin tin with 12 large muffin cases. In a jug, mix the eggs, yogurt, oil, apple sauce, banana, honey and vanilla. Tip the remaining ingredients, except the seeds, into a large bowl, add a pinch of salt and mix to combine.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix briefly until you have a smooth batter – don’t overmix as this will make the muffins heavy. Divide the batter between the cases. Sprinkle the muffins with the extra oats and the seeds. Bake for 25-30 mins until golden and well risen, and a skewer inserted into the centre of a muffin comes out clean. Remove from the oven, transfer to a wire rack and leave to cool. Can be stored in a sealed container for up to 3 days.
