Build a Healthy Breakfast When Mornings Are Always Rushed

Build a Healthy Breakfast When Mornings Are Always Rushed
How to build a healthy breakfast when you are always running late · firstpost.com

Breakfast does not have to be fancy to be healthy.

Try to include something with protein, something with fibre and some carbohydrates.

Eggs, yoghurt, paneer, nuts and peanut butter are quick protein choices.

Toast, oats, fruit, poha and roti can provide energy.

You can prepare some foods the night before or in advance.

Leftovers can also be breakfast, even if they are not traditional breakfast foods.

On very busy days, take a banana, nuts or a peanut butter sandwich with you.

If you cannot eat much at home, eat a small amount first and finish breakfast later.
