A healthy breakfast can help you feel more energized and focused throughout the day, but it gets even better with some additional yumminess.

1. Oats Uttapam:

Uttapam is a delightful southern delicacy that is simple, quick, and fuss-free to prepare.

Ingredients: 

• 2 pinches of baking soda 
• 2 cup oats 
• 2 teaspoons refined oil 
• 1 medium onion 
• 2 pinches asafoetida 
• salt as required 
• 1/2 teaspoon ginger 
• 2 medium tomato

• 1 cup semolina 
• 2 cup yoghurt (curd)

• Fill the bowl with spinach leaves, onion slices, and tomato slices. Combine them thoroughly with the dry ingredients.
• Place a pan over medium heat and heat the oil in it. Spread 2 tbsp of the prepared batter in a circular motion.
