Healthy breakfast for school kids
-
autumnbronze:
ya, could happen to kids at sch-going age.
Ya, I can understand .... stress, high adrenaline etc ....Augmum:
depends on individuality,
some kids with sensitive digestive systems, can't even take breakfast,
otherwise will have Stomach cramps and Diarrhoea.
as for my gal, def a No...No fruits for breakfast....esp during exam period.
Could happen to DS too in the future :!:
better don't take such risks during Exam period.

Thanks, I think i will try it out for my DD, make a yummy one so that she will stick to it.
Hi micollh,
The brand starts with L. Its from NTUC. Think its called Loewen or something. It takes about 15 mins or so to cook with milk, whereas DH and I have Quaker quick cooking oats. As a baby, DS used to have Nestle's oats with prune cereal from the box, then after he turned 2 and a half, I gradually switched to the current rolled oats.
You can try other brands like Red Mill. They carry baby oats, 5 grain cereal and many other varieties of grains and cereals suitable for breakfast. Can check out http://www.iherb.com under breakfast or cereals. Or you can get them from big NTUCs or Cold Storage.

Anyone tried oats with peanut butter?
This is what I do:
Cook quick-cooking oats in the microwave with just enough water. Immediately mix in a generous tbs of peanut butter. Add milk to adjust to desired consistency. Dribble a tsp or two of honey.
DS luvs his oats this way. -

How about Pancakes with fruits like banana? Blueberries? or Strawberry?
French toast with fruit jam?
Cranberries & Oats muffins?
occasionally Chocolate oats cookies?
Pumpkin sweetbuns?
Chicken porridge? -

But won't some of the things like muffins and porridge take too long to prepare? Morning no time.
BTW do you have a tried and tested recipe for muffins? -
Muffins are not difficult to make...infact they are more \"healthier\" compare to cupcakes as muffins require lesser butter/oil.....I had made several times but pics store at home's laptop...try loading tonight...heehee, I snake into kaisu forum while working
Blackberries oatmeal muffins (extracted from web blog)
β’\t1/2 cup unsweetened soy milk or fresh milk
β’\t1/2 cup oatmeal
β’\t1 egg
β’\t2 tbsp olive oil
β’\t1/2 tsp vanilla essence
β’\t60gm plain flour
β’\t3 tbsp brown sugar
β’\t1 tsp baking powder
β’\t1/4 teaspoon salt
β’\t1 cup frozen blackberries (can replace by cranberries, blueberrie. strawberries)
Method
1.In a small bowl, combine milk and oats and soak for 15 minutes.
2.In a separate bowl, beat together egg, vanilla essence and oil; stir in oatmeal mixture.
3.Sift together flour, baking powder and salt. Stir in sugar.
4.Stir flour mixture into wet ingredients, just until combined. Fold in blackberries.
5.Spoon batter into muffin cups until cups. Bake in preheated oven 200 deg cel for 15mins, until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Muffins take abt 15mins (easy cos dun need mixer) preparation and 15-20mins baking thus should be manageable during weekends morning or alternatively make it the night before and reheat it the next morning.
As for porridge, before doing your daily morning chores ie brushing the teeth etc, wash rice and let it brew/boil....then add in seasoning and already marinated chicken pcs....thats it.
Enjoy. -

Enjoy. Where do you buy the frozen berries? I find the fresh blue berries in the supermarket literally tasteless and flavourless. I'd be interested in frozen berries, can make milkshake and smooties too. Don't remember seeing them in NTUC.

I have seen them at NTUC @ NEX. I suppose you might be able to find them in the big NTUCs
