Mothers often complain that their children do not have enough breakfast while rushing to school. For such women, doctors suggest preparing eggs for their kids every alternate day. Egg could be served as poached egg, omelette or boiled egg. The old local method of partially cooking the egg can also be resorted to. Another preparation is by beating the egg, mixing grated carrot, beetroot, capsicum and tomato, followed by making a version of pizza in a microwave oven.
Eggs are a vital food that enables the growth of children and should never be avoided from their diet. The advantages of egg include:
• Egg is a storehouse of proteins. An egg taken with breakfast supplies energy for an entire day.
