Ideas for Quick, Easy, and Nutritious Breakfast
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. This is because, with breakfast, several metabolic and hormonal processes occur that affect the body's functioning, and it is also the start of our day. To get the most out of this meal, it is not enough to just eat but to focus on the process of eating. The principles of Mindful Eating dictate that we focus on our food, take some time to enjoy breakfast, and allow a few moments of peace before the rush of everyday life begins. Also, the morning meal helps us achieve the first nutritional goal of the day.
Ideas for Quick, Easy, and Nutritious Breakfast
- Overnight Oats: Mix oats with milk (or plant milk or water), chia seeds, fruit, and a little honey. Refrigerate overnight for a quick and filling breakfast.
- Yogurt with Granola and Fruit: Add homemade granola, fruit, and a little honey to yogurt for a protein-packed breakfast.
- Scrambled Eggs: Sauté spinach, add eggs, and sprinkle with feta cheese for a balanced, savory breakfast.
- Tomato and Oregano Bread "Riganada": Cut tomatoes in half and squeeze them on slices of bread. Add olive oil, salt, oregano, and feta or anthotyro cheese for a lighter version.
- Peanut Butter Banana Toast: Spread 100% peanut butter on whole-wheat toast and top with sliced bananas to combine protein, good fats, and carbs.
- Thessaloniki Whole Wheat Stuffed Bun: If you are out and looking for a nutritious option, choose a Thessaloniki bun stuffed with cream cheese and turkey slices.
- Salmon Brioche Bun: If you're on the way to work, opt for a brioche stuffed with cream cheese, smoked salmon, cucumber, and fresh dill.
- Wasa Toast with Tahini, Honey, Apple, and Cinnamon: Spread tahini and honey on Wasa rusks, add apple slices, and sprinkle with cinnamon for extra flavor.
- Peach and Honey Egg Fritters: Dip slices of stale bread in egg and fry them in a non-stick pan. Top with peaches and honey for breakfast, which makes a nutrition triad.
- Homemade Crepes: Keep the crepe mixture from the night before in the fridge. Prepare some crepes in the pan and enjoy them savory with low-fat cheese and vegetables or sweet with homemade hazelnut and cocoa spread for a more special morning start.
These are some breakfast ideas that you can include in your diet. Some people love routine and prefer to have the same breakfast almost every day, while others enjoy variety. Either is nutritionally acceptable. The most important thing is to keep this crucial meal in our diet for energy, mental clarity, concentration, good nutrition, and weight control.
