Oatmeal

 

Oatmeal is a good source of protein and fibre. You can add a twist to your regular bowl of oatmeal by adding in dried fruits and nuts. To make it more healthy, you can use fresh fruits instead. Make sure that you choose those that are your children’s favourite.

It is important that your kids have breakfast because they need to refuel after fasting for more than eight hours while asleep. Without breakfast, your kids will most likely be distracted in class and will miss most of the lessons. Make sure that they eat something healthy before going to school so they will not feel tired and restless in class. Use the recipes above to make your breakfast preparation quick and hassle-free.
