5 Mug Recipes For A Wholesome Breakfast

Think of a Monday morning, and the first things that come to mind are the hustle, the rush, and the stress of preparing breakfast before starting office work. We all relate with the struggle of preparing breakfast on a weekday. Don’t we? While we are buried under the morning chores, office rush and whatnot, our stomachs know how much it is craving a good breakfast. Despite our stomachs growling, we know there’s no time to cook something lavish and fulfilling. And this is when we resort to some of the most simple and quick breakfast options. Be it your regular boiled egg, bread and butter, instant noodles, chillas, and more.  

However, if you are bored of making chillas and toast for a quick breakfast, it is time you changed that. For the same, here we bring you some delicious recipes that you can make in a mug. No need for big utensils or tons of ingredients, all you need is a mug and you’ll have some of the most delicious, fulfilling and easy breakfast recipes to relish.  

1. Egg In A Mug 

Just some eggs, spinach, milk and cheese along with some seasoning can create magic in a mug. No more dirtying a bunch of pots and pans, this quick breakfast needs a microwave-safe mug and five minutes for a satisfying morning meal full of delicious flavour and nutrients.  

2. Bread In A Mug 

Healthy, high-fibre, gluten-free, low-carb, low-glycemic, and almost bready like bread, this one is a wholesome alternative to your regular bread, and can be made in less than 20 minutes. Scrambled eggs, almond flour, coconut flour, nutritional yeast, sea salt, baking powder, and more come together for a homemade bread in a mug that can be your next perfect breakfast. 

3. Pasta In A Mug 

This is without a doubt, the quickest pasta recipe ever. Just four ingredients – macaroni pasta, salt, milk and water, and you have a mac and cheese ready in less than 10 minutes. Yes, you read that right. Didn’t we tell you it is the quickest pasta recipe ever? We weren’t joking! And well, a cheesy pasta in the morning is never a bad idea. 

4. Hummus Breakfast In A Mug 

Move over egg and cheese or milk, this combination of hummus with eggs is sure to steal the show. While some of you might be putting hummus on your egg sandwiches and egg quesadillas for a long time, when served this way it almost feels like an egg salad made with hummus instead of a mayo dressing. Simply microwave eggs in a mug, scramble it a bit and microwave again, and stir until cooked, add-in the hummus and enjoy. Wasn’t that quick and innovative?
