Tezzbuzz Desk-If you are confused about what to have for breakfast every day, then you can prepare some easy and tasty snacks from bread. It does not take much time to make them and they can be easily prepared with vegetables and other things available in the house.
Bread is not limited to just making sandwiches. With it you can make toast, rolls, cutlets and even instant pizza. The special thing is that they can be made more delicious by adding vegetables of your choice, cheese or eggs. If you want to keep the snacks a little healthy, then you can use whole wheat or multigrain bread instead of white bread. These contain relatively high fiber, while vegetables and protein foods can make the snack more nutritious.
If you feel like eating something crunchy with evening tea, then veg bread toast can be a good option. For this, spread finely chopped onion, tomato, capsicum and carrot on the bread. Add some cheese and spices of choice on top. Now bake it on a pan with light oil or butter on low flame. When the bread becomes golden and crispy from below, serve it hot.
Children may like bread pizza very much and it does not take much time to make it. Apply light tomato sauce on bread slices. Add onion, capsicum, tomato and some cheese on top of it. Now cover it on the pan or cook it in the oven until the cheese melts well and the bread becomes crispy from the edges. Cut it into small pieces and serve.
Bread rolls are a great snack for cheese lovers. First of all, cut the edges of the bread and roll the slices. Now place the filling of cheese, finely chopped carrots, capsicum and onion in it. Roll the bread carefully and apply some oil on the pan and cook it from all sides. When the roll becomes crisp, it can be served with chutney or sauce.
Delicious cutlets can also be made from bread. For this, break the bread into small pieces and add boiled potatoes, peas, carrots, onions and spices of your choice to it. Prepare small tikkis from this mixture. Add some oil on a non-stick pan and cook them till they become golden and crisp from both the sides. Serve them with green chutney.
If you like to eat eggs for breakfast then egg bread toast can be made easily. Beat egg in a bowl and add finely chopped onion, tomato, green coriander and light spices to it. Lightly dip the bread slices in the egg mixture and place them on a hot pan. Cook well on both sides, until the toast becomes light golden and crispy. It can be eaten hot for breakfast.
While making snacks from bread, keeping some small things in mind can make them a better option. Choose whole wheat or multigrain bread instead of white bread. Also, you can include more vegetables in snacks and cheese or egg as per requirement.
Adding too much oil, butter, cheese or sauce can increase the calorie and salt content of the snack. Therefore use them in limited quantity. When buying packaged bread, it is also useful to look at the fiber, sugar and sodium content on the label. Avoid over-burning bread and eat ready-made snacks fresh instead of keeping them out for a long time.
