This is the menu for Princess Eleanor at the boarding school in Wales

Princess Leonor has already returned to Wales after enjoying a few days of Christmas vacation with the royal family in Spain. The young woman returned to England last Tuesday, although classes only started yesterday. Little by little, students at UWC Atlantic College will resume their daily lives after Christmas, which is often difficult due to the excesses of this holiday season. Princess Leonor is very conscientious about food and tries to make sure it is balanced, even if sometimes a whim is allowed. The English boarding school pays a lot of attention to the health of its students, which is reflected in the varied menus it offers.

The Spanish echoed the dishes offered by the education center. One of the lunches would consist of lamb moussaka with feta cheese and nutmeg, second, Greek salad -with tomato, cucumber, pepper and red onion, black pepper, oregano and seasoned with olive oil-, as well as roasted zucchini with lemon and whole grain couscous. For dessert fruit. The same resources allowed students to eat in designated rooms or outside, the second option being the least likely due to England’s weather. Thanks to social networks, we were able to see one of the centre’s menus, as one of the students shared a photo of it. Beans and eggs for breakfast -typically British- burritos, rice with fried eggs and pasta, among others. This year, it looks like UWC Atlantic College has opted for a much healthier menu.

Princess Leonor and Infanta Sofía previously studied at the Santa María de los Rosales school, where the youngest daughter of the King and Queen of Spain still lives. Apparently, one of her mother’s main concerns during her stay at the center was food. Queen Letizia took advantage of the weekly meetings with teachers and parents to propose changes to the school’s diet. At the request of the monarch, fried foods disappeared from the menu and the consumption of vegetables, fruits, legumes, chicken and fish was promoted, changes that aroused complaints from other parents. It was reported on television through the mouth of Terelu Campos, as her daughter Alejandra visited the same center as the royals.

‘My daughter, of course, came for the infantas, age-wise, of course. And when they arrived, the school changed. A lot has changed and I understand that. Security, sniffer dogs… What bothered me a bit was the question of food, because sometimes you can give children a croquette and nothing happens”, said the daughter of the experienced presenter María Teresa Campos. The Sálvame employee echoed the complaints of other students’ parents, who saw how the menus of the school, where King Felipe was also present, underwent major changes at the request of Doña Letizia.

Although Infanta Sofía and Princess Leonor have learned to eat healthy, they treat themselves to something every now and then. on December 16 The heir to the throne went to dinner with some friends in restaurant El Ñeru. It is a place that specializes in Asturian food, which shows the love it feels for its roots. La royal spoke French with her friends and, as Vanitatis explained, they tried different typical Asturian dishes such as cabrales cheese or fabada. The luncheon took place the day after one of Ms. Leonor’s official solo acts, which held a meeting with young volunteers and participants of the Spanish Red Cross. We will not see the young woman back in Spain until April, when she will travel to Madrid to enjoy the Easter holidays. The princess must return to the boarding school on the 16th of that same month to resume her classes, and they must take final exams the following month. In this way, Doña Leonor will start her university internship as soon as the summer is over.
