Dear readers, today on the blog we will discuss the topic of useful and delicious breakfasts. Since childhood, we all hear the same phrase: “Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.” I cannot but agree with this centuries-old folk wisdom and I believe that breakfast must certainly be healthy, healthy and tasty.

That is why I will gladly give the floor to my culinary friend, the author of the confectionery blog Sweet Chronicles Olga Afinskaya. I love Olga's blog myself. I'm looking for something tasty and unusual.

Greetings, dear friends! Firstly, I want to express my gratitude to Irochka Zaitseva for such a warm welcome on the pages of my blog and for the trust shown.

In my blog "Sweet Chronicles" I talk mainly about sweet temptations and how to learn how to bake deliciously, but also healthy desserts I take quite a lot of time, because I myself monitor my diet, trying to make it not only healthy, but also varied.

Therefore, in today's article, I want to talk with you about how to prepare a delicious and healthy breakfast for every day. After all, this is the basis of proper nutrition.

Delicious and healthy breakfast. Recipes for every day of the week

Breakfast, indeed, is a very important meal, and I advise you not to skip it in any case, but on the contrary, make sure that your breakfast is nutritious, satisfying and varied.

And to help you with this, I have compiled a schedule of healthy breakfasts for every day with detailed recipes.

Monday. Oatmeal in a jar with yogurt

Monday is not an easy day, so it is better to prepare for it with all responsibility. Agree, the most The best way the right way to start Monday is to cook breakfast in the evening.

Preparing such oatmeal is very simple with a minimum, but very important set of ingredients necessary for right start day.

And even if I overslept (as often happens after the weekend) and don’t have time to have breakfast at home, I just throw a jar of oatmeal into my backpack and eat it even at work, even in the park on a bench, even in a traffic jam.

For oatmeal we need:

  • banana, ripe - 1 pc.
  • cereals- 150 gr. (preferably finely ground, but not instant)
  • natural Greek yogurt - 250 gr.
  • water, room temperature- 250 gr.
  • cinnamon - 1/2 tsp
  • honey - 1 tbsp
  • fruits, berries, nuts, dried fruits - optional

Cooking method:

  1. In a deep bowl, mash the banana with a fork.
  2. In the same bowl, add all the other ingredients: yogurt, water, cinnamon and honey.
  3. If you want to add dried fruits such as raisins, prunes or dried apricots, then they need to be mixed in at this stage.
  4. Mix thoroughly until uniform consistency.
  5. Divide the oatmeal into 3 x 250ml jars, filling them about 1/3 full to leave room for the fruit and nuts.
  6. Close the lids and put in the refrigerator overnight.

Eat oatmeal for breakfast straight out of the can, generously flavored with fresh berries, fruits, nuts, seeds, and whatever else your heart desires.

Tuesday. Cheesecakes in the oven

Cottage cheese is another indispensable product for a healthy breakfast. A source of easily digestible protein, as well as calcium and many vitamins.

We are all well aware of the traditional Russian dish- cheesecakes, but not everyone knows how to make them even healthier and avoid harmful frying in a pan. All you need to do is bake them in the oven.

For cheesecakes we need:

  • cottage cheese, dry and fatty - 250 gr.
  • egg - 1 pc.
  • sugar - 1 tbsp. l. (may not be added)
  • flour - 10 gr. (you can take whole grains, coconut, rice, etc.)
  • zest of 1/2 orange - optional

I don’t add sugar to these cheesecakes, but I pour honey or honey over ready-made cheesecakes. berry sauce sugarless.

For a fruit sauce, simply simmer fresh or frozen berries or fruits in a saucepan over low heat to release their juices.

We can also add raisins, dried apricots, poppy seeds, chocolate, fresh berries, vanilla extract, etc. to cheesecakes.

Cooking method:

  1. We heat the oven to 180ºС. We cover the baking sheet with parchment.
  2. We wipe the cottage cheese through a sieve. This will make our cheesecakes more airy.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the egg well with a whisk (about 1 minute). This will also give us additional splendor.
    If we add sugar, then beat it together with the egg.
  4. Gently mix the cottage cheese with the egg with folding movements, trying not to press on the cottage cheese.
  5. Then add the sifted flour and zest or any other fillers. Mix gently again.
  6. From curd dough We form 5-6 balls of the same size and spread on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Then, with the palm of your hand, lightly flatten the balls to make neat washers.
  8. Everything. Cheesecakes are ready to be sent to the oven. Bake at 180º for 20 minutes.
  9. In order for the syrniki to acquire an appetizing crust on both sides, after 10 minutes, turn the syrniki over to the other side.
  10. Ready cheesecakes are served with honey, jam, sour cream, fresh berries, fruits and a large cup of hot green tea.

By the way, note. Yesterday I learned that only the second brew and only green tea can be equated with water. That is, when we talk about drinking 1.5-2 liters of water a day, we mean only pure water and green tea second brew. Everything else doesn't count.

Wednesday. Fried eggs with tomatoes

It's no secret that eggs are the richest source of protein. Professional athletes very often start their day with eggs in a variety of variations. Let's take an example from them, shall we?

For the scrambled eggs we need:

  • tomatoes, large, ripe, juicy - 3 pcs.
  • eggs - 6 pcs.
  • vegetable oil or butter for frying

Optionally, you can add:

  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1-2 bell peppers
  • 1 onion

  2. Melt the butter in a frying pan and cut the tomatoes into small slices into it and simmer over medium heat until soft. At this stage, you can add finely chopped garlic or onion in half rings and bell pepper.
  3. While our vegetables are cooking, beat eggs with salt in a bowl, as for an omelet.
  4. When the tomato juice has almost evaporated, add the eggs and, stirring occasionally, fry the scrambled eggs until cooked.
  5. At this stage, you can sprinkle the scrambled eggs with grated cheese. coarse grater.
  6. When serving, you can sprinkle with fragrant finely chopped cilantro.

Thursday. Lazy dumplings with whole wheat flour

I like these dumplings more than the classic ones, because the taste of whole grain flour is much brighter and richer. Instead of adding sugar, I advise you to add honey or another natural sweetener to your taste already in ready-made dumplings.

Although Italians, for example, add parmesan to the dough and serve it with tomato sauce as a main course. Also a good option.

Dough for lazy dumplings you can cook in the evening, and in the morning you will only have to boil them and eat them.

For dumplings we need:

  • cottage cheese, dry and fatty - 500 gr.
  • eggs - 2 pcs.
  • salt - 1 pinch
  • whole grain flour - 100 gr.

Cooking method:

  1. We wipe the cottage cheese through a sieve or just knead it with a fork. However, a sieve will make our dumplings more airy and uniform.
  2. We introduce 2 eggs, salt and mix thoroughly with a fork until obtained homogeneous mass.
  3. We pour whole grain flour(do not pour all at once - if the cottage cheese is dry, it may take a little less flour, or it may need a little more).
  4. Mix for a short time until a homogeneous consistency (the longer you knead the dough, the harder the dumplings will turn out).
  5. We divide the dough into 4 equal parts and roll a thin sausage with a diameter of 2 cm from each.
  6. On a surface dusted with flour, cut the sausages into slices about 1 cm thick and, rolling in flour, press with a finger on both sides.
    Then the sauce will fall into these hollows.
  7. We throw dumplings into boiling salted water and cook for 2-3 minutes until they float.
  8. For dietary option serve dumplings with sour cream or yogurt, fruits, berries and honey (although I always pour over butter).

Friday. Nut muesli bars

It is best to eat cereals from unpeeled and unpolished grains, which are practically without any processing, as they contain a lot of fiber. The latter cleanses the body and removes toxins. For example, pearl barley, brown rice, wheat, and millet are also very rich in minerals and ingredients, with which you will feel full of strength and energy. If in pure form it’s not quite tasty for you, you can diversify the porridge with dried fruits or fresh fruits, berries and honey. You can also add healthy fats - nuts, seeds or sesame seeds. Wholemeal (whole grain) toasts are also an excellent breakfast. We mix eggs, milk and salt, dip our bread and fry in sunflower oil.

And it is a known fact that breakfast is the main meal of the day. Everyone around says that breakfast should be the most healthy, dense and satisfying. But for some reason, there are always many different “buts” for such a simple truth. “I have no appetite in the morning”, “I’m late for work - I don’t have time”, “I can’t stand porridge, but you can’t think of anything else for breakfast” ...

Did you recognize yourself in at least one of the answers? If yes, then this article is for you. She will tell you about the importance of breakfast and share 6 breakfast recipes with which you can make it a habit and enjoy it.

It is known that people who prefer to skip this meal are more prone to fullness, emotional instability and weakness during the day.

Breakfast is the most important factor for a perfect and refreshing start to the day. Exactly morning reception food gives a charge of vivacity and joy for the whole day. To make your day productive, be sure to have a hearty breakfast before daytime accomplishments.

Scientists say that in the morning the body needs to get enough energy for productive work. To do this, she recommends eating a full carbohydrate breakfast. Do not be afraid, this will not affect your weight in any way, because the extra calories will be used up during the first half of the day.
