Hi friends -

My child goes to daycare and I give him lunch to take (which is ususally last night's dinner) but I also want to send some breakfast for him. Any ideas?

shama replied. i usually make atta of jowar, bajra, chana and rice and keep it for breakfast i make rotis of this mix atta with spices and salt and i add wheat atta too this gives the kids nutrition of all the cereals i also make toasted sandwiches with vegetables and pulses cooked which is also very filling
sonia replied. hi jasmine,
i have a daughter who is 2 years and goes to daycare. usually i send breakfast. you can try making omlet with chopped palak and then prepare sandwich. noodles is easy and they will love it. mix rawa and wheat in water add a little salt and a pinch of sugar and coconut to make dosa. boil oats with milk and a spoon of honey. french toast is easy to make early in the morning. try these , good luck. motherV replied. you could also give you child various parathas, aloo, gobi, methi etc. these are easy to make and stay fresh for long. and taste good even if they are cold. you could spread jam/chutney/sauce, add some chopped capcicum, onion, cheese, chatt masala and make a roll. also you could pack vegetable cutlets or indian breakfast like poha or upma which are both filling and nutritious.

contact if you want any specific recepies

regards

You can also make idlis, the dough can be made in advance and kept in the fridge and fresh idlis can be made before the child goes to is day school, compliment it with chutney or jam or honey anju replied. How about some mixed fruits. When they are cut up into small pieces they will look colourful and are easy to eat and very nutritious!

Even jam and butter sandwiches cut into small triangles. Or bread and honey. sudhavenugopal replied. Try Maggie noodles mixed with boiled vegetables. It will look colourful and children will like it. Also u can use scarmbled egg instead of veg. U can also give sandwiches/idlis etc.
