I'm tired of the usual pancakes, bread, cereals for breakfast. I'm running out of ideas to serve for breakfast. Need something healthy and delicious for my kids' palette. Please share your ideas.

bread and coffee and sometimes i even skip breakfast which is i know not too good. breakfast is the most important meal of the day so don't skip breakfast guys. if you're tired of having to eat the same food over and over again, try to buy some recipe books, you might get new ideas there for a healthy and delicious breakfast of different kinds

Thanks for the response. I agree with you in saying that we should not skip breakfast because it is the most important meal of the day.

i second that one must not skip breakfast. whenever i get tired of serving the usual buttered bread or pancakes, sometime all it takes is a spruced up presentation as what you often see in food magazines or as served in restaurants. why not serve it with slices of fruits on the side, add a bit of whip cream on top or buy a different spread or even make your own jam :D sprinkle with confectioner's sugar or some cinnamon, drizzle some syrup and viola, you're like rachel ray! the idea is to make it look more delicious than ordinary :D

Thanks! I agree on making it more creative, or should I say artistic?

One thing we love for breakfast, especially on a cold day is scrambled eggs with bacon and sausages, then a bit of fresh fruit to follow! Lynn-Marie

Youre welcome,, did you know that scrambled eggs made with a bit of milk is a good source of protine and calcium too! Lynn-Marie

Thanks for sharing Lynn! Fresh fruit is definitely a good option, especially for my kids.

I usually eat fresh fruit or frozen fruit smoothies, oatmeal with raisins, or cereal with bananas.

The drink "up and go" is pretty good, I usually take 2 drinks for Uni a day, also rice with a bit of veges and something spicy is always nice, or some pasta would even be okay.

We have the same problem. It seems that breakfast of children is one of the hardest things to think of. Especially with children of this generation. We usually have rice in the morning. We sometimes have siopao ( expensive though). Also one recipe that the kids like is pandesal cut into half, dip in battered egg and fry in very little oil.

Mon-Wed-sat we have rice with either bacon, cornedbeef, hotdogs and eggs. Tues-Thu its either pancakes, bananafritters. Fridaays and sundays its cereals, oatmeal, or champorado.
