Nutritionists believe that you shouldn't skip breakfast. In the morning, the digestion process is especially intense, so you can afford baked goods, sugary drinks, fruits - foods that are undesirable to consume in the afternoon. Don't forget about healthy fiber and protein, as well as a hot drink that will help you recharge your batteries for the whole day.
Main dishes
The most popular breakfast dishes are porridge, as well as omelets and scrambled eggs. Better not to make them too greasy. Boil porridge in water, and add herbs, vegetables, cheese or chicken to the omelet instead of bacon.
Try oatmeal - both children and adults love this porridge. Choose instant cereals - they only cook for a minute. You can do otherwise - pour boiling water over the flakes, close the plate with a lid and let the porridge brew. You can use hot skim milk instead of water. It is even more useful to add milk to an already cooked porridge. Diversify the taste of your dish by adding sliced fruits - banana, strawberry, dried apricots or raisins. Nuts, honey, or homemade jams can be a tasty addition.
Experiment with cereals, trying different cereals - semolina, barley, rice, millet. If you are unable to cook in the morning, make porridge in the evening. Pour semolina into boiling milk, add a pinch of salt and a little sugar. While stirring, cook the thick porridge, cool it slightly and pour it into bowls doused with cold water. Let the dish cool completely and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, flip the small pudding onto a plate and top it with jam or condensed milk.
Another easy recipe is a quick omelet. Beat a couple of eggs with a few tablespoons of milk, salt and dry herbs. Cut white or rye bread into small pieces and fry them lightly in vegetable oil. Pour the egg mixture over the bread and cook the omelet with the lid closed. Before removing the dish from the stove, cover the omelet with grated cheese. Let the cheese melt and place the omelet on bowls. An excellent addition to it would be a fresh cucumber or a few cherry tomatoes.
Hot and cold drinks
It is better to start the morning with coffee, freshly brewed tea or cocoa. Nutritionists believe that hot drinks help you digest food better and give you energy. It is especially important to drink them during the cold season. It is advisable not to add sugar to tea or coffee, but if you cannot resist, limit yourself to one spoonful. An alternative to sugar can be honey, jam, or preserves.
Italians believe that the ideal morning drink is coffee with milk. If you love coffee, try to brew it yourself - instant coffee is much less useful. For those who prefer tea, you can brew strong black or green, which is nice to supplement with hot milk. Leave the soothing herbal teas for the evening - in the morning it does not interfere with invigorating.
If you are used to starting the morning with fruit juice, dilute it with water - this way the drink will be less nutritious, but will not lose its taste. For those who drink juices, it is worth giving up sweet additives to tea or coffee.
