Around the Globe Breakfast Choices

Ethnic breakfast provides the perfect mix of carbs & protein
Ethnic Breakfasts Provide a Balanced Combination of the Different Food Groups
A healthy breakfast is the perfect fuel to keep you energized through the busy day. This is the ideal opportunity to sneak in foods that your kids lack in abundance. While a typical breakfast includes whole grains, fruits and low-fat dairy, ethnic breakfast from around the globe can bring in more variety, such as lean protein and even veggies, along with these ingredients. Ethnic breakfast provides a balanced combination of protein and carbohydrate which serve as the platform to provide your kids with the best kick-off to sail through school and play hard all day.

Kids love a medley of dishes and ethnic choices bring in smart alternatives to kids who get easily put off by eating the same thing over a period of time. This is a high-priority issue because the taste of foods is a key factor in what kids do eat or don’t eat.

Breakout Breakfasts
While kids can eat whole grain cereal or waffles on some days, they can try any of these smart ethnic cuisines put forward by reputed dietitians on other days:
  • Mexico: Kids love tortillas with beans and shredded beef or chicken. This breakfast is filled with B vitamins, protein and fibre, similar to a sandwich.
  • Israel: The best part about Israeli breakfast is that it contains both fruits and vegetables as well as healthy fats. A typical Israeli breakfast contains olives, cheese, vegetables, bread and fresh juices. Try your hands on this fun recipe of threaded chunks of cheese and vegetables like peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers and pitted olives on wooden skewers in the presence of your kids.
  • African American: A conventional African American breakfast has lots of whole grains. People commonly have grits and a slice of whole wheat toast along with scrambled egg. Consume a piece of fruit and a glass of non-fat milk and you have had at least one serving from each major food group.
  • India: Indian breakfasts are unique as they specialize in vegetarian cuisine. Vegetable upma, a South Indian delicacy, is made from cream of wheat and vegetables like onions, carrots and green beans and spiced with ginger, curry leaves, mustard seeds and cumin. This soothing and simple morning meals provides abundant iron, calcium and fiber. For more Indian breakfast recipes, please visit the website www.firsteatright.com.

Arepas are eaten with cheese or shredded beef
Arepas Made from Corn Meal
  • Peru: Peruvian breakfasts often contain a healthy corn or quinoa tamal, with papaya and white cheese known as queso fresco. Weekends usually contain an elaborate meal of stir-fried steak with tomatoes and onions served with bread.
  • Colombia: Colombians eat a non-traditional breakfast. They start their day with “caldos” or soup. Colombians love arepas, bread made from corn meal and eaten with cheese or shredded beef.

​Post Pregnancy Weight Loss. Bangalore - 02 March 2013 writes......


​Motherhood brings unparalleled joys. It brings indescribable agonies of body too. And being a fitness freak for7 long years, my whooping 21kgs of weight gain sent me into throes of despondency. I was at the brink of desperation to get rid of those unhealthy flabs. 83kgs was weighing me down, literally. I joined my gym back a year later but a twisted ankle and some silly cysts erupting from my ovaries made my struggle a bit more severe.

My distress was growing manifold. My yoga, my dance, my weight training..i missed them all. And more than that, missed my fitness. And then ; I thought "if not now, then never". A newspaper ad took my resolution flying towards 'first eat right'. And there she was, my angel, Dr. Nafeesa. and there was no looking back after that .............................  http://www.firsteatright.com/testimonial.html
