Breakfast Made Simple: Easy And Healthy Breakfast Ideas
Most of us either opt for sugar, fat and preservative-loaded breakfast foods or don’t even eat breakfast, starting the day with just a highly caffeinated beverage. Preparing a healthy breakfast can be less time-consuming than you believe. Cheese or Yogurt with Fruit- Fresh fruit, particularly when it’s in season, is tasty when paired with some form of dairy product.
Cottage cheese or low fat yogurt are good low-calorie alternatives, but if you don’t care about the calories, any type of cheese is good. Breakfast Parfait- Alternately layer yogurt, fruit and granola in a bowl or glass. If you don’t have granola, breakfast cereal can be used. Breakfast Shake or Smoothie- You can exercise your creativity here.
Add a couple of tablespoons of milk or fruit juice. Blend in flavored milk powders or protein powders and fresh, frozen or canned fruit. Microwave Omelette – You can make an easy omelette in the microwave in just a few minutes. Whip up eggs and milk as for any other omelette using a microwave safe bowl. Filling for your omelette can be cooked or raw veggies, cooked meat, seafood or lunchmeat, spices and soft cheeses. Cook eggs on high for about 1 to 1 and 1/2 minutes or until eggs are soft-cooked, but still runny. Microwave until eggs are almost solid. Sprinkle cheese on top. Microwave ’til cheese is melted and enjoy, with whole-grain toast.
