Quick Morning Breakfast Bites

This is a tip-blog specially for mums, mums-to-be, mums of school-going children who need an idea or two for breakfast/what to pack for recess within a 25 minute time frame:

1. If your child hates the oats you cook, dun ever try cooking it again (cos it is just NOT the same as Dad's, dun ask me why) -- instead, use the extra 10 mins to snooze ***ha ha ha***

2. Make an egg mayonaise sandwich instead using milk toast bread slices (Hi-5 brand isn't too bad and so is Sunshine but I personally find Gardenia too hard)

3. Get the kid involved by asking him/her to stir in the mayonaise (Japanese mayo is the best, you can buy it from any NTUC fairprice supermarts) whilst you do a quick check on the school bags' contents

4. Half a cup of Milo or any hot beverage will do if you have a small eater like mine (any more and I guarantee that you'll be eating n drinking leftovers AGAIN)

5. Pack a margarine/kaya or margarine/strawberry jam (or any other fruit jam) toast for recess

6. Wrap up their recess toast in either foil or clingwrap so that they dun risk getting stomach poisoning if they forget to wash their hands before eating

7. A very cute looking lunchbox matters more than the quality of the packed food --- so indulge in a Disney Princess or Thomas the Train or Winnie the Pooh lunchbox to make them finish their meal

Voila! If you accomplish steps 1-7 within a 25 minute frame, you would have saved 10-15 more minutes than if you laboriously cooked maggi noodles or oats for them. Mummies must work smart to save time!

Spread some margarine and bits of fine sugar on the Hi-5 milk bread is also very yummy. Sugar rush!

If it's one thing you can't find in my larder, it's sugar.
