Parents would always say "Eat your breakfast. It's the most important meal of the day!" Well, that's the truth. Breakfast is like a fuel that can keep you going for the whole day. Moms must prepare a healthy breakfast meal that children would surely love to eat.
Lifetime Asia shares the following five healthy breakfast meals that are nutritious and delicious for your children:
1. Eggs
Moms never miss out eggs on the dining table during breakfast. This is because eggs have lots of health benefits. They are also rich in protein. You can prepare them in various ways like boiled, scrambled, poached or fried. You may also mix the scrambled eggs with vegetables.
2. Cereals or Muesli
There is cereal or muesli that you can buy in a grocery store. However, this is packed with much sugar that is not really healthy for your kids. It is advisable that you make your own cereals. You can mix oats, nuts, quinoa flakes, coconut, and honey and topped them with yogurt. It's a healthy breakfast meal that really tastes great.
3. Pancakes and Waffles
Children definitely love pancakes and waffles. To make these breakfast treats healthier, you can add fruits such as berries, bananas, apples with light milk and coconut oil.

5. Muffins or Loaves
Another treat that children love to eat is a muffin. You can bake your own muffins that are mixed with fruits such as peaches, mango, berries, oranges and bananas. Carrot and blueberry muffins are among the favorites of most children and are considered the healthy ones, too.
