Breakfast is by far the most important meal of the day. Ask any nutritionist, if you don't believe me. It is supposed to be a fortifying meal,that will see you through to lunch. Also i think in these modern times perhaps the only meal that most families have together. A good breakfast will satisfy and refresh you, and may consist of either one or many dishes.
How you start your day goes a long way in determining how the rest of it will go.While Fried stuff like Parathas, pooris or idli- dosa would feature in an Indian breakfast, items such as fresh chaats , sandwiches, juices, sprouts etc also are equally liked.
