One of the most overlooked essentials of healthy eating is the nutritious breakfast. I remember as a child I would always try and avoid breakfast and rush to school. It never happened though, as my Dad would be standing at the door and he would go to the extent of saying “no breakfast no school”. I would quickly gulp a glass of milk and a sandwich and rush off.
Later as I started living all by myself I somehow did not maintain that discipline. The first thing I used to have was a cup of coffee in office and maybe a biscuit. Now I realise how careless I was about my health. One of the most important axioms I have learnt from my nutritionist is to Eat Right at the Right Time. It is very important to eat Breakfast, but not just anything. Breakfast should be Wholesome & protein packed. I moved away from bread butter jam kind of breakfast to Scrambled egg whites with veggies.
Eating healthy and tasty food are not mutually exclusive, and also not monotonous. To break the routine of scrambled eggs, I make egg muffins with oat meal and veggies. These muffins are quick and easy to make.
