In Rus', omelette was cooked in cast iron pots or clay pots in the oven.

Steamed broccoli

Curd casserole with rice

This is a dietary and very healthy dish. It contains a fairly large amount of calcium and easily digestible protein. Equally important is that the whole process will take no more than half an hour. Therefore, this casserole can be recommended to those who have not yet decided what to cook for their children for breakfast.

To please your schoolchild with this tasty and healthy treat, you should stock up on all the necessary ingredients the evening before. To prepare one serving you will need:

• Two fresh eggs.
• 40 grams of rice.
• 40 milliliters of milk.
• A couple of tablespoons of sour cream.
• 100 grams of raisins.
• Half a tablespoon of granulated sugar.

Additionally, you need to prepare five grams of butter and breadcrumbs.

Since we are preparing delicious food, we need to take only fresh and high-quality products. Add granulated sugar, butter and one egg to a bowl of dry cottage cheese. Mix everything thoroughly and combine with pre-cooked fluffy rice and washed raisins.

The resulting mass is placed in a frying pan, pre-greased with oil and sprinkled with breadcrumbs. It is important that the height of the future casserole does not exceed 3.5 centimeters. It is topped with an egg beaten with sour cream and placed in an oven preheated to two hundred degrees. After half an hour, the curd and rice casserole can be served. If desired, it is topped with jam or honey.

Omelette on a bed of cheese

This hearty and simple dish may also be of interest to those who are still wondering what to cook for breakfast. Let us immediately note that the entire process will take about twenty minutes. To make two servings of this omelet, you should check if you have in your refrigerator:

• 100 grams of hard cheese.
• Six fresh chicken eggs.
• Two ripe tomatoes.

After this, the future omelette is sprinkled with chopped herbs and sent to bake in a preheated oven.

“School Morning”

This option should appeal to those who believe that they definitely need to cook porridge for breakfast. To get two servings of a tasty and healthy dish, you should stock up on all the required ingredients in advance. In the evening, check if your kitchen has:

• Six tablespoons of finely ground oatmeal.
• One apple and one banana each.
• Four teaspoons of sugar.
• Ripe large pear.
• Four walnuts.

The cereal is poured with two glasses of boiling water. The resulting mass is combined with granulated sugar and mixed thoroughly. After this, the bowl with the future porridge is placed on the stove or placed in the microwave. Chopped nuts and pieces of fruit are added to the finished dish. If desired, you can put a little butter in the porridge.

Due to the lack of fresh fruits, dried fruits are added to the porridge. As for granulated sugar, it can be replaced with jam or honey.

Corn porridge with pumpkin

This very tasty and healthy dish will certainly arouse the interest of those who are wondering what to cook for. In order to feed your family with light, aromatic and nutritious porridge in the morning, you should go to the store the day before and purchase all the necessary ingredients. Your kitchen should have:

• A tablespoon of sugar.
• 100 grams of corn grits.

Then pour 150 milliliters of milk into the contents of the dish and reduce the heat.

While the pumpkin is simmering on the stove, you can start preparing the porridge. To do this, add a glass of water to the corn grits, add a little salt and cook over low heat.

The pumpkin, which has had time to soften, is crushed using a submersible blender or masher. The resulting puree is combined with cooked porridge, poured with the remaining milk and sugar is added.

To make the porridge even more tender and tastier, season it with butter, wrap it in a terry towel and leave for a quarter of an hour. After this, it is laid out on plates and decorated with raisins, nuts or pumpkin seeds.

After this, the pieces of fruit are placed in a deep bowl and sprinkled with powdered sugar, the amount of which varies depending on the personal preferences of the cook and his family.

A cup of coffee or tea, perhaps even a sandwich or the pinnacle of perfection – scrambled eggs. More than half of the adult population expects this breakfast every morning. And some people just smoke a cigarette and run to work. But think about how harmful it is for the body to start a working day like that!

We were told from an early age that the first meal is extremely important. But over the years we forget about this common truth. And we find ourselves a lot of excuses. But in vain.

Why is breakfast so healthy?

Scientific research shows that skipping breakfast can lead to many negative health consequences. Such as decreased memory, weakened creative thinking ability, irritability and anxiety, decreased resistance to stress, slower logical thinking, decreased vision and even fainting. Lack of energy provokes fatigue and apathy. This is only from the nervous system. But the endocrine, digestive, and circulatory systems also suffer. The mechanics of the process are extremely simple. Upon waking up, the body gradually turns on all the processes that were “slowed down for the night.” Blood begins to move more actively through the vessels, the stomach prepares to receive and process food (after all, the nightly break in nutrition is about 10-12 hours), enzymes are produced, and the body prepares to replenish energy reserves, so necessary for an active and vigorous state.

At night, the level of glucose and, accordingly, insulin in the blood is quite low, as a result, glucose gradually stops entering the cells, and we feel hungry. If the meal is not complete, and so is a snack with a bun or sweet, then the insulin level increases sharply and remains in the body as fat deposits, instead of becoming a source of energy for cells. And hunger will return very quickly.

A cup of coffee starts and speeds up metabolic processes in the body, but what should you exchange if you haven’t had breakfast? But the worst thing is for the stomach and pancreas. Stomach juice begins to be produced regardless of whether you plan or not plan breakfast. And pancreatic enzymes generally have their own schedule and mood. It is especially difficult for the digestive system if you have prepared breakfast for a schoolchild or fed your spouse - the smell of food causes the release of enzymes, gastric juice, bile and gives the command to the gastrointestinal tract: “Now we will eat!” But there is still no food, then your unfortunate body will slowly eat breakfast with its own cells. Gradually, over the years, this leads to ulcers, diseases of the gallbladder and duodenum and pancreatitis. Not to mention the fact that in order to give you the strength to work, create and generally stay on your feet, the body will not draw energy from fat deposits on the butt, but will begin to extract vitamins and minerals from its personal reserves. That is, hair, nails, teeth, blood composition and every cell in particular will be affected.

But it is important not just to eat, but to pay close attention to the quality composition of breakfast. It is necessary to maintain a balance according to the formula: 50% carbohydrates, 30% proteins and 20% fats from the daily value should be obtained with the first meal. Therefore, complex carbohydrates stand on the podium among the morning menu. They will take a long time to break down and, accordingly, supply energy longer. These are wholemeal bread and whole grain cereals, grain cookies or cereals. In second place will be low-fat dairy products, fish, meat and eggs, and vegetables and fruits round out the top three. The best morning drink is tea or fresh juice. Drink coffee closer to lunch, but put the bottle of kefir aside until the evening.

Monday

Oatmeal with “filler”

Apple

Green tea

Most likely, on the weekend you visited, allowed yourself alcohol, a piece of cake and various mayonnaise salads. Or laying on the couch with my beloved husband, beer and chips. Therefore, today is the time to tune the body to proper and rational nutrition.

Oatmeal, cooked in water, will help remove fresh fat deposits, and its enveloping properties will help the stomach recover after mom's Sunday dinner. You can add a little milk, salt, butter and sugar to taste. But ideally, top the porridge with nuts (fat and protein), pieces of fruit or raisins.

Two egg omelette

A piece of lean boiled meat

A piece of wholemeal bread

Vegetable salad

In the morning, as a rule, there is very little time to prepare breakfast, so in order not to eat anything in a hurry, make some preparations in advance. For example, boil boiled pork (boil a piece of pork in salted water with the addition of a mixture of peppers, carrots and onions; when the pork is ready, place the meat in a bowl, while still hot, lightly coat it with crushed garlic, sprinkle with spices, cover, and wrap it well in a towel, leave reach.) As a rule, a 0.5 kg piece is enough for two or three breakfasts for the whole family.

Chop the cabbage and carrots and add salt the night before, press down lightly and put in the refrigerator. In the morning, all that remains is to add the tomato-cucumber and season with vegetable oil. Many people also add an apple to this salad - experiment for your health!

Wednesday

Try adding finely chopped herbs to salted cottage cheese and grating cheese on top - it will be difficult to drive your family away from the table to work or school.

Thursday

Buckwheat in any version

Yogurt

Banana

Tea or juice

It has long been proven that buckwheat is a storehouse of vitamins and microelements. And after oatmeal, it is the best morning porridge. It can be prepared with milk and slightly sweetened with honey, it can be used as a side dish for scrambled eggs or a fish and meat dish, or try making grechaniky! Add some mashed potatoes, an egg, salt to the boiled buckwheat and mix this mass. And then form small cutlets, roll in flour and place in a hot frying pan.

And bananas have their own secret, it is high in calories and, therefore, will give the body a lot of energy, but if you know that you will need energy and high performance in 3-4 hours, and you will not be able to refresh yourself, eat a greenish banana in the morning. It will take longer to digest, so you will receive energy later. In addition, bananas supply the body with serotonin, which helps you relax and lifts your mood.

Friday

Vegetable salad

Fruit fresh

The variations on the theme of vegetable salads are endless. One of the simplest and most useful in the morning is considered to be a beetroot salad, which not only replenishes the body with vitamins, but also improves peristalsis and starts metabolic processes. No wonder this salad is an integral part of diets and school canteens. Grate the boiled beets, add some prunes and walnuts, add salt and mix with vegetable oil or low-fat sour cream.

Saturday

Pumpkin poached with honey

Yogurt

Green tea

The big advantage of scrambled eggs is that they easily tolerate being mixed with a wide variety of foods.

A piece of white bread will be a pleasant accompaniment to such a breakfast.

The health benefits of pumpkin have been talked about, so include it in your diet at least as a dessert. Place pumpkin pieces, chopped apple, a little lemon zest, a spoonful of honey in a small saucepan and add 0.5 cups of water. After 15 minutes of stewing, an excellent and healthy treat awaits you.

Sunday

On this day, most of us stay at home, do the cleaning, help the children do their homework, then go for a walk, visit, or look for various adventures. This also requires a lot of energy. And Sunday family breakfasts should be different from weekday ones. They take place in a calmer atmosphere, in contrast to the daily pre-work gallop.

Cottage cheese casserole with fruit and sour cream

A piece of boiled meat and hard cheeses

If you like to experiment and want to start each day differently, this article is for you. After all, the first meal sets the tone for the day. But the breakfast options are very varied. They largely depend on the person and his eating habits. Some people eat a big breakfast because they have a day full of hard physical work ahead of them. Others snack on coffee and a croissant. An hour after this breakfast you want to eat again. But there are situations when meals take place under unusual conditions. Serving fried potatoes in bed is somehow not comme il faut. What should a schoolchild put in his backpack? What to have for breakfast on the road or in nature? What if you are on a diet - what should your morning meal be? Let's look at a variety of breakfast options. In this article you will find many interesting ideas that will help you make your morning meal bright, memorable, and tasty.

What to feed your child before sending him to school? This question is asked by many parents. Nutritionists recommend using foods containing slow-acting carbohydrates for the morning meal of schoolchildren (especially primary school children). Breakfast will then take longer to digest, be better absorbed and maintain a feeling of fullness. Parents who listen to nutritionists give positive feedback about these types of breakfasts. The child is not distracted by all sorts of Snickers and chips. In addition, a schoolchild’s breakfast should nourish the brain well and improve performance. This means we can’t do without milk porridges and cottage cheese casseroles.

Let's consider the main options:

Having breakfast with the whole family

If the cottage cheese casserole option doesn’t suit you, or the process of preparing it seems long to you, let’s try other recipes. Here are some good breakfast options that both adults and children will enjoy:

• In a deep frying pan, greased, cut one hundred grams of cheese into small cubes. Place 2 tomatoes, cut into slices, on it. Beat six eggs and a glass of milk separately. Salt this mixture and season with chopped fresh herbs. Pour into a frying pan and bake the omelette. We will serve this dish with coffee and toast. Separately put butter and jam.
• If you are used to starting your morning with porridge, then the oatmeal will be much tastier if you pour boiling milk over the cereal instead of boiling water. Reviews say that children will eat it more willingly if you add raisins, nuts, and berries.
• You can make banana porridge by mashing this fruit and mixing it in a blender with a portion of prepared oatmeal.

Romantic breakfast in bed

This non-trivial meal needs at least a beautiful tray and has its own rules:

1. First: no forks needed. As many dishes as possible that you can pick up and eat.
2. Second: stylish presentation - romance should shine through in everything.
3. Third: dishes for a romantic breakfast are prepared quickly. After all, your beloved will not lie for an hour and a half and wait for you to bring a tray with food.

Weekday breakfasts. Some interesting ideas

Unfortunately, our working day is structured in such a way that we can devote a maximum of fifteen minutes to our morning meal. And the same amount of time to prepare it. But this does not mean at all that from Monday to Friday we are doomed to have breakfast with regular scrambled eggs or boiled sausages. If you approach the process of preparing a meal correctly, then we will all be on time and will not be late for work. Where do we start? The easiest to prepare breakfast options for every day are a variety of sandwiches. Bearing in mind that breakfast should contain something dairy, we do:

Eating wisely

It is important that in the morning our body receives not only enough calories to last until lunch, but also all the necessary vitamins and microelements. Breakfast options with proper nutrition are not so limited. You can include both lean meat and fish in your morning diet. The main thing is that they are combined with vegetables. And again we return to the topic of salads. This time - from cold smoked mackerel. This fish contains omega-3 fatty acids, which promote brain activity. And this is very necessary for knowledge workers:

Eating elegantly

Often, breakfast options with proper nutrition include poached eggs on the menu. They are broken into boiling salted water. Toast black “Borodinsky” bread in a toaster. We spread delicious and fresh Mozzarella on it. In conditions of import substitution, ordinary low-fat cottage cheese may be suitable. And we already put poached meat on it. Another option is “proper scrambled eggs.” We tie the completely low-fat poached meat with a “ribbon” of fresh cucumber. And if you want to add calories, add another slice of crispy fried bacon. How to make the right omelet? Here's an interesting microwave recipe:

Have breakfast correctly - nourishing, tasty and healthy!

Breakfast and lunch are the most high-calorie meals. Therefore, try to make them varied and useful.

There are many breakfast options for those watching their figure. Having coffee and a croissant for breakfast may make you look glamorous, but you are unlikely to become slim and healthy. I don’t argue - it’s beautiful, just remember Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s.

Breakfast is not a buffet, but a whole arsenal of healthy and tasty dishes from which you can choose your favorite options or cook something original from time to time.
