Breakfast is the most important meal of the day so it is important not to skip it. However, it is also the rush hour of the day hence it can be quite a challenge to prepare a good breakfast. Busy parents like me can always use some quick and simple breakfast ideas to keep our family going throughout the day.
Today I am sharing this super simple and effortless breakfast idea – Egg Bread Cup Toast. The basic ingredients needed for this are bread, egg, butter and cheese. You may add sausages and some greens into the mix but for today, I will just use the basic stuffs.
My choice of bread is always wholemeal bread. Wholemeal bread is made from whole grain kernel hence it contains more nutrients and requires longer time to digest compared to white bread. This also means wholemeal bread keeps us feeling full and satiated for much longer, too.
Eggs are also part of my breakfast repertoire. They are tasty and packed with protein to help sustain our energy level throughout the day. Best of all, eggs are pretty affordable and versatile with endless recipes to cook them making them the egg-cellent choice for a quick and healthy breakfast.
