Hi! My name’s Alex. I always have a sandwich and tea for breakfast. My favourite sandwiches are ham and tomatoes sandwiches. They’re delicious! And I also like cheese sandwiches. On weekdays I have lunch at school. I take a packed lunch with me. I have some sandwiches, an apple or a banana and I usually drink hot chocolate or tea. For dinner I have jacket potatoes with cheese and some salad, pizza or fish and chips. But I like spaghetti the most because it is my favourite food.
