It's 10 AM here. And it's my morning break or rather I would say that my work at school is almost over. I finished the individual sessions from 7:30 till 9:30. Now I am just left with one meeting at 11 with one of the Montessori teacher. That would be all for work and I should be free by 12. It was an early start to the work today and I was left with no time to enjoy my breakfast. After finishing morning chores and my yoga, I was not left with much time. I had a quick shower and grabbed a big banana to keep me going for another 2 hours.. I was too hungry by 9:30 and that's the breakfast in picture that I just relished while sitting in warm sun. . It's mini idlis( steamed rice and bengal gram dumplings) with tomato sauce and a home made chutney ( another sauce made of Bengal gram and peanuts with sesame seeds and spices). Now, I will sit for some time and mylot. I plan to read and respond. The notifications can wait till afternoon Enjoy mylotting. Hope you had a good meal

I use all kinds of flours and grains..rava, raagi, barley, jowar, bajra, moong dal etc. I even go for black and red rice instead of the regular white ones. They all are healthy options.

The breakfast looks appetizing. Do you have this everyday or do you like changing your breakfast menu? I don't like the same menu everyday.

@arunima25 Me too. I love experimenting with cooking and never have the same meals every day be it breakfast, lunch or dinner.

@aninditasen Your family is lucky. They will never have a montony on the table. Meals are so important to make us feel good...not only physically but also emotionally.

I keep a variety for my breakfast and all meals. My kitchen actually is an active place. Breakfast is the most important meal in our house and the heaviest. A bowl of sprouts salad is fixed everyday and it can go with upma, poha, dhokla, varieties of dosa and idlis, stuffed Paratha and some continental too on certain days.. Same goes with lunch and dinner. We have variety of meals... food from all states and sometimes from other countries too but customized to Indian taste

Yes. My breakfast is the heaviest meal. I even had a bowl of sprouts salad. Sprouts salad is a fixed breakfast item in our home.

I too have a heavy breakfast. Being diabetic, I have to watch out the portions of every meal. I also had a bowl of sprouts with veggies salad with it. So it was quite filling.

@m_audrey6788 I always try to do some bit of exercise in the evening too. I don't miss morning exercise unless I am sick but evening ones get missed on certain days.

@arunima25 I did this a few months back. I agree that we need to be vegan at random.

@LadyDuck Cold weather does increase your appetite. Hot weather kills our appetite.

Those are made in the small moulds. I have always posted the ones with regular size. And this one has this spicy powder on it. It's delicious and healthy
