According to his website, Charles does not eat lunch. Chef McGrady explains that the King of England enjoys mushrooms, which are sautéed and seasoned with aromatic herbs, then frozen to be enjoyed year-round. It is also said that King Charles III avoids meat two days a week, while he does not consume dairy one day a week. For tea time, he enjoys crumpets, small cakes made with flour and yeast. On the other hand, for breakfast, the English monarch prefers very light dishes like fruit, muesli, whole grains, seeds, and of course, tea. For many years, it was speculated that Charles carried a box of his favorite foods, which was said to contain six different types of honey, muesli, and more. It is also rumored that he only eats eggs on weekends, and they must be boiled. He is said to dislike chocolate, unlike Queen Elizabeth II, who was a fan. His favorite dish is risotto with wild mushrooms and organic lamb. During his marriage to Lady Di, the whole family often enjoyed Italian food. A couple of years ago, his office shared one of his favorite recipes on Instagram, which is made with cheese, egg, spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, and basil.
