There's a reason for the adage that breakfast is the most important meal of the day to fuel your body. Starting the day with a nourishing breakfast keeps you full and energized until lunchtime. With breakfast being the first energy source to get the required nutrients, focusing on fiber-rich foods is vital to ensure a healthy, wholesome, and satisfying morning meal. Fiber is a key nutrient that fills you up and keeps blood sugar stable, feeds healthy microbiota in your gut, reduces cholesterol levels, regulates hormone levels, and much more. Here we share a guide to adding more fiber to your mornings by putting a healthy spin on your next breakfast sandwich.
Avocado and Egg toast
Start your morning with a creamy, protein-packed combination of avocado and egg. Spread mashed avocado on your whole wheat slices, then top with a perfectly cooked sunny-side-up egg. Add a sprinkle of salt, pepper, and chili flakes for a flavourful kick to energize you all morning.
Peanut Butter and Banana toast
This classic duo always satisfies. Spread a generous layer of peanut butter on your favorite bread slices, topping it up with sliced bananas. Drizzle a bit of honey for some sweetness and sprinkle chia seeds for an extra boost of fiber and omega-3s.
Greek Yogurt and Berries toast
Transform your breakfast with the wholesome goodness of Greek yogurt and fresh berries nestled between slices of Harvest Gold 100% Atta Bread. The rich, creamy yogurt pairs perfectly with the tartness of mixed berries, creating a balanced, nutrient-dense meal that’s both delicious and nourishing.
Hummus and Veggie Crunch
For a savory start to your day, spread a thick layer of hummus on your Harvest Gold Multigrain bread with thinly sliced cucumbers, tomatoes, and bell peppers for a perfect crunch and added nutrients. You can sprinkle sesame seeds or drizzle some olive oil for a Mediterranean-inspired breakfast that’s full of flavor and healthy fats.
Cottage Cheese and Apple Slices
Add a fruity twist to your morning meal by spreading some cottage cheese on your breakfast bread with thinly sliced apples for a protein-rich, low-fat option. Top up the nutrient-rich option with a sprinkle of cinnamon to complete the delightful balance of the creamy, crunchy, sweet, and savory meal.
Breakfast, the day's most important meal, offers a golden opportunity to pack in your fiber consumption. By doing so, you can nurture a happy, healthy gut while also enjoying a prolonged feeling of satisfaction.
