Im abit stuck... DD is great eater and for lunch and tea she eats what we are eating (95% of the time). But for breakfast I'm finding it hard to move past the porridge, weetbix and toast routine. I want something remotley healthy for her for breakfast that will fill her up. Shes not huge on fruit, so i cant see her eating that for breakfast. So..any ideas? recipes? on what I can give her for breakfast to mix it up abit.
yeah she LOVES scrambeld eggs but like today (need to go shopping).. i have no eggs lol. But ill keep that one in mind. didnt think about hiding some fruit in her weetbix thanks hun
Does she like yogurt? Perhaps she will like some banana/other fruit if it is thrown into some yogurt with a bit of healthy muesli? The Mundella and Jalna ranges are really good - loads of probiotics in them for digestive health.
Don't limit yourself to breakfasty foods. My 2 will eat the leftovers from dinner the night before and think nothing of chicken soup first thing in the morning. I'm just as happy cos a big meal in the morning is so important!
yeah thats true lulu. Mia eats ALOT in the morning. Thats why i was after something filling. Ill remember leftovers arnt just for lunch or tea! thanks hun
I know we had a chat about this earlier and bounced some ideas around but I thought I would post my ideas here in case some one else is watching for some ideas:
English Muffins
Muffins - banana, berry etc
Crumpets
French Toast
Pancakes - even if you make up the dry ingredients the night before and then add the wet ingredients the next morning it wont take as long. Also using wholemeal flour might make it a little more healthy and filling
Tomato on toast with melted cheese over the top
Boiled Eggs
Smoothies if she is into them - its a way to get more fruit in
And what Lulu said too, think outside of breakfast foods she might like left overs, hey at least she is eating.
