Breakfasts
are important. Period. It in fact should be the most important meal of the
day. Actually we all know it yet we tend
to skip it. I too did that sometimes because I was running late for work.
Sometimes I just munched on some biscuits or a granola bar on way to work. But
believe me it doesn’t do any good to the body.
Now
it’s an even bigger challenge to make time for breakfast with a hyper active
infant, domestic work and professional work. But even if it’s little late I try
to have a good breakfast. Now making a quick breakfast food interesting is an
art in itself! I have been making some interesting stuffs for breakfast lately
which is yum, quick yet healthy. It involves very less time and effort. Let’s
get going with our Breakfast Egg Muffins.
HEALTH BENEFIT

Eggs are full of good proteins and minerals.
Rich source of Omega-3 fatty acids, A,B,D,E and K vitamins

fried like an omelet.

some dollops of taste and health. Avoid processed bacon/sausage etc.
