Author : ravin saha | Published On : 27 May 2024

Starting the day with a nutritious and filling breakfast is imperative, especially for kids. A wholesome meal in the morning fuels their energy levels, enhances cognitive functioning, and lays the foundation for a healthier lifestyle as they grow. But, let's be honest, persuading young ones to eat healthily can often feel like an uphill battle. So how can we make these vital meals appealing to them? Let's dive into some fun and nutrition-rich breakfast ideas for kids, all infused with that special Nutralite touch.

 

1) Scrambled Eggs with Nutralite DoodhShakti Butter Spread

 

Scrambled eggs might sound commonplace, but they are a powerhouse of protein. To elevate this simple dish to a nutrient-packed delight, try using Nutralite's DoodhShakti Butter Spread. Not just any ordinary butter spread, DoodhShakti supports immunity by aiding in improving gut health due to the active probiotics added to it. Your kids will love this creamy twist to their regular scrambled eggs, and you'll appreciate the health benefits!

 

2) Banana Pancakes with Nutralite Choco Spread

 

Pancakes are a sure-shot hit among kids. Substitute refined flour with oats or whole wheat for a healthier base. Mash a ripe banana and mix it in for natural sweetness, and your pancake batter is ready! Top these fluffy pancakes with Nutralite’s Choco Spread; it's indeed healthier than regular chocolate spread and boasts real hazelnuts. Plus, its calcium-enriched variant offers the same amount of calcium as one glass of cow's milk, making it an excellent choice for growing kids.

 

3) Super Cereal with Fruits

 

Cereal is a go-to breakfast option that can easily be made healthier and more exciting. Choose whole-grain cereal over sugary alternatives, and top it off with an array of colourful fruits. Strawberries, blueberries, or bananas—let your kids pick their favourites! Add a spoonful of the Nutralite Table Spread for that added richness. It's an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids as well as vitamins A, D2, and E, and it contains zero cholesterol or trans fat.

 

4) Mayo Sandwiches

 

Who said sandwiches are boring? With Nutralite’s Mayo, which is healthier than regular mayonnaise and fortified with vitamins A, D2, and E, the humble sandwich transforms into a nutritional powerhouse. The mayo comes in interesting variants like plain veg with its creamy tang, tandoori with a smoky twist, cheesy garlic for Italian flair, or achari for that Indian flavour. Let your kids choose their favourite mayo variant, add their preferred veggies, and sandwich between whole grain bread—breakfast is served!

 

5) Nutty Yoghurt Parfait

 

Layered with creamy yoghurt, crunchy granola, and an assortment of fruits, a parfait helps in serving dairy, whole grains, and fruit all in one glass! To make it even more nourishing, add a dollop of the Nutralite Yummy Table Spread, rich in vitamins A, D2, and E. It is a low fat spread with zero cholesterol and zero trans fats.

 

6) Wholesome French Toast

 

The classic French toast can be a balanced morning meal by just making a few tweaks. Use whole-grain bread and add a dash of cinnamon to the egg mixture. Once cooked to a perfect golden brown, instead of topping with syrup or sugar, smear generous amounts of the Nutralite Choco Spread crunchy variant. This spread includes the superfood quinoa - an excellent source of protein!

 

Incorporating Nutralite products in these recipes not only adds great taste but also packs them with essential nutrients. Remember though that every child is unique – what works for one may not work for another. So, feel free to experiment and modify these recipes as per your child's taste and nutritional needs.
