Top 10 healthy breakfast ideas !!!

My week is sailing through slowly. Getting into routine after a  long summer break. Hope you all had a wonderful summer break.

Breakfast is the most important meal of our day. The name clearly states that we break our fast after sleeping through the night. Usually it is a good practice to drink a glass of water as the first thing in the morning. Following that you have to eat breakfast within one hour of waking up.

When I was young, I remember having south Indian delicacies like idly, pongal, dosai, poori or upma for breakfast. These days we dont have the time to make all that. It is a fast paced life and in most household both parents work and they are always on the go. I looked up some healthy breakfast ideas and we follow this at our home now. I thought of sharing it with you all

1) Oats with milk and sugar: This is the most favorite. We all like this. It is simple to make. Boil oats in water for a few minutes once it is cooked add some milk and sugar.  I dont buy any brand, we like to buy loose oats from Sprouts and usually  use that.

2) Smoothie: This is becoming big these days. My kids just love it. I  have a Vitamix at home. I put in fruits, vegetables, dry fruits, honey, milk, avocado , protien powder etc and make it.

3) Home-made Yogurt+ Berries+ Granola: This is our house favorite, kids love to eat it and it is also healthy. This si our house favorite granola .

4) Eggs: I am not a great fan of eggs, but I like the egg white omelette, my husband loves scrambled eggs and omelette.Our kids love egg sandwiches.

5) Bread: We always get wholegrain or Honey+ Sprouted wheat bread and have a toast with a spread. I love the spicy spread from Trader Joe’s.Peanut butter + Jelly is our house favorite.

6) High Fiber low sugar cereal: Kids love Cheerios , we try different cereal every time. We love everything with a pinch of cinnamon and nuts on them.

7) Breakfast Bar: This is the last resort when we really wake up very late and dont have the time to fix any breakfast. My kids love Kind bar .

8) Quiche: You can find simple quick recepies online and try to make then for your kids as well. Or you can buy them from Costco.

9) Pancakes/ Waffle : I  get this high protein Kodaiak Cakes  pancake mix and make pancakes/ waffles with it.

10) High Protien home made Porridge : I make this at home  healthy home made mix . I give this to my kids once a week.

I try to make poha, idly or dosa during weekend mornings. Sometime we have the normal breakfast that we eat during weekdays also.
