Welcome to 2024! For me, the new year means that the indoor season is right around the corner and preparing for that season is a big focus. With that comes a fairly consistent weekly schedule and lots of food to support that training! Burnbrae’s eggs and egg products are a big part of my weekly diet. From scrambled eggs (almost) every morning to EGG Bakes! as an afternoon snack – they’re a staple for me.
Why Omega Plus?
Eggs are a naturally nutritious choice as part of a healthy diet. One serving of 2 large eggs contain more than 16 vitamins and minerals, 13 grams of protein, only 160 calories and more than 7 times the Omega 3 than a serving of two large eggs. The hens are fed a diet of grains and other nutritious ingredients, including corn, soy, vitamins, minerals, plus omega oils, flax seed, and marigold extract for an additional source of DHA omega-3 fatty acids and lutein.
Maddy’s Special Sunday Eggs Benedict
When I’ve got a slow morning, I like to make a good breakfast – something that takes a little time and feels special. Eggs Benedict scratches that itch! I used Burnbrae’s Naturegg Solar Free Range eggs to make this benedict. They’re delicious and produced by chickens that live in solar-powered barns, so you can feel good about the sustainability of the choice you’re making.
EGG Bites! – delicious, nutritious and ready in seconds!
With heavy training comes busy schedules and a big appetite. Burnbrae’s EGG Bites! are such a help in these months. They’re quick and easy, protein-filled mini crustless quiches that are ready in just 90 seconds! They sit easily in my stomach so they’re something I can eat either before or after a workout. These are a must-have for me on a busy day – fueling properly is one of the most important aspects of training!
EGGS2go! A perfect post-training snack
August is a busy time for me. It’s usually a major championship month (World Championships or Olympics), meaning I’m on the road. When I’m travelling, high quality snacks can be hard to find but EGGS2go! hard boiled eggs are a perfect solution. They’re packed with protein, portable, tasty and pre-peeled so you don’t need to fuss with shells.

Maddy’s Meringue with Berries
Summer is a time for celebration, but it also happens to be my heaviest competition season. Balancing these two truths can be challenging, so when I’ve got some free time with friends and family, it’s important to make the most of it. Through my busy season, it’s crucial to let some steam out of the pot. Do something that has nothing to do with training – have a drink with friends, shoot the breeze with your family – eat dessert!
Maddy’s Egg Salad Sandwich
I love an egg salad sandwich, always have! It is an easy option to take on the go for a filling lunch. You can make it in a big batch and eat it throughout the week, and beyond all of that, it’s just tasty. I love bringing an egg salad sandwich to practice when I have a run followed by a weight workout! It fills me up without making me too full to complete my second session.
Maddy’s Egg-cellent Fried Rice
This month we’re making fried rice, a staple in my diet! This is something I eat for lunch before an afternoon workout. It’s a great option because it’s got a perfect mix of carbs, protein and veggies to keep me full through a workout – and it’s also just tasty! This time around I used broccoli and green onions, but you can really use any veggies you’ve got on hand: peppers, mushrooms, carrots, cabbage - they all work! Really the things you need are garlic, ginger, soya sauce, rice and eggs.
Maddy’s Ramen Inspired Noodle Soup
Soup is a staple in my diet – and this noodle soup is hearty, nutritious and warming. I love coming home after a damp and chilly outdoor practice to a big bowl of soup.
Maddy’s Valentine Carbonara
It’s the season of love. And what better way to show love, than through food? Carbonara is my favourite pasta because it’s a recipe that makes just a few ingredients really sing.
