We’ve done our fair share of experimenting with food and to be honest, it has become exhausting. To plan and execute one meal a day is an achievement, but to make 3 meals is just terrifying! We’ve collected a bunch of recipes for you to start your day easy with some delicious breakfast.
Here’s to not having leftovers in the morning:
Time Required: 30-45 minutes
What You Need: Eggs, milk, vegetable oil, vanilla essence, baking powder, sugar and water.
Souffle pancakes are all about the eggs. These thick clouds will look too beautiful on your plate and you’d just not want to bite into them. You can top it up with fresh whipping cream, maple syrup or berries. It was super easy to make them for us, but now we’re just staring at our plates.
Also try easy banana pancakes!
Time Required: 10 minutes
What You Need: 2 eggs, brown sugar, milk, cinnamon powder, thick-sliced bread (sandwich bread), butter and maple syrup.
We miss early morning breakfasts in the quaint cafes of Mumbai, and we tried to recreate a feeling of those yummy dishes at home. This French Toast was relatively simple to make. Not to mention, we didn’t make a complete mess in the kitchen.
Time Required: 30 minutes
What You Need: Rice Flakes (Poha), semolina, yoghurt, ginger, oil, everyday spices, curry leaves, onion, chillies, peanuts, coconut chutney/grated coconut and salt.

Time Required: 30 Minutes
What You Need: Potatoes, all-purpose flour, cheese, 1 egg, garlic, coriander, everyday spices, oil and salt

What You Need: Fruits or chocolate as your base taste, milk of your choice, nuts, granola and seeds.
Smoothie Bowls are very easy to make and an easy way out when you don’t want to cook. If you have leftover fruits or just want a sweet bowl of yumminess, try a smoothie bowl.
