Fighting a cold with my children.

Making breakfast for my 3 kids and me.  We all seem to be coming down with something rather nasty in our throats so I chose some extras to our normal potato's and eggs.  This included
  • 1 large potato                                                Peppermint Tea
  • 4 eggs                                                           Honey
  • 1 green bell pepper                                        Lemon
  • 1 orange bell pepper
  • 1/2 onion
  • 1 garlic clove (could of used 2) 
  • Cyan Pepper 

 I must say my throat feels better right away most likely from the tea.  I was reading this morning how bell peppers have more vitamin C than oranges, and also knowing that onion and garlic are to be really good at fighting colds.  It definitely needed more garlic but maybe next time.  My 1 year old loved it, my 3 year old was ok with it, my 7 year old took some cheese and then ate it fine.

If anything at the very least it was a nice calming meal, which when your running a household of little people is always a good thing.  :)
