Explanation:

Benedict's test is used to detect reducing sugars. Glucose is a strong reducing sugar and gives a red - very strong reducer result. Baked potato and bread contain starches which can be broken down to reducing sugars and may give a yellow - moderate reducer or orange - strong reducer result depending on the degree of breakdown. Alice's salad likely has little to no reducing sugars and may be a non - reducer (blue). Egg is a protein source and is a non - reducer (blue).
