A nourishnig breakfast makes a good start to the day. We find all excuses for skipping breakfast. When we skip breakfast, we also miss out on the relaxation that a meal should bring. We should all sit down and enjoy our breakfast together. These some minutes of togetherness early in the morning bring us closer to each other. One way to gather the family around the breakfast table is to provide variety and excitement in the foods you serve. Here is a preparation that will please every group.
