It has often been said that one should eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a pauper. But more often than not, this order is reversed; with most of us skipping breakfast altogether, preferring to dive straight into a pool of carbs at night. Frugal and tasteless breakfasts have become the norm and it is important for this unhealthy trend to change. Here are 7 hassle free and tasty breakfasts to make your mornings brighter.
1. Breakfast Tacos
A customizable delight, this is as convenient as it gets. It doesn’t take long to create these beauties, chock a block with fresh vegetables, eggs or chicken, low fat mayonnaise and cheese or simply last night’s leftovers (albeit healthy), wrapped in a whole wheat shell (which can be last night’s roti for us Indians). Sounds amaze right?
2. Sprout Salad

Sprouts are packed with nutrition and are easily the healthiest breakfast choice you can make. Soak dry lentils a night before or get a pack of sprouted ones to create this masterpiece. Mix in apples, potatoes, bananas or absolutely any fruit or vegetable that you deem right and toss it in a simple dressing made of lime juice, salt and pepper. This one right here is going to be a party in your mouth, guaranteed.
3. Whole Wheat Blueberry Pancakes
Sounds yum, right? Well that it is, with whole-wheat flour and blueberries making it better. A store bought batter will definitely make things easier, although creating your own isn’t going to be too difficult. Whisk whole-wheat flour with salt, baking powder, baking soda, and sugar together in one bowl and eggs, buttermilk and vegetable oil in another. Add blueberries at last and fold in carefully. Warm a skillet or a non-stick pan and get to work. Bam! Your pancakes are ready! Serve with raw honey for a heavenly healthy experience.
4. Indian Style Scrambled Eggs With Multi Grain Bread
A staple in Indian households, this is the best version of scrambled eggs on this planet, for sure. Combine finely chopped chilies, onions and tomatoes with your eggs and scramble away! Sprinkle red chili powder, salt and pepper and serve with toasted multi grain bread. Sounds tempting? Well, it is.
5. Fruit And Cheese
Simple and nutritious, this requires LITERALLY no effort. Just some fresh fruit and a small amount of good quality unprocessed cheese and you are good to go. It might sound absurd, but fruit and cheese taste lovely when paired together, although its important to make the right flavor combinations. For instance, watermelon and feta taste lovely when eaten together, while berries taste wonderful with cream cheese. You could eat fruit and cheese raw together or include them in a dish of your choice. The possibilities are immense.
