Scrambled Egg Poha for Babies, Toddlers & Kids

Scrambled Egg Poha for Babies, Toddlers & Kids

Eggs are a complete balance of fats, they are rich in protein, Vitamin D and contain good amount of Omega 3 Fatty acids. The other main ingredient in this recipe is Poha which is loaded with healthy carbohydrates, rich in iron, gluten free and its quick cooking ability makes it most favored too. In this Scrambled Egg Poha I’ve used very minimal ingredients and this can be made for breakfast, lunch or dinner very easily. This also makes for a healthy snackbox option.

Eggs can be offered to babies after 8 months. However as only egg yolks are suggested for babies till an year, you can make this recipe using egg yolks for babies. I liked the way the combination of Poha and Scrambled egg getting adapted to Indian spices so well. You can also give it an talianI twist by adding oregano, chilli flakes or italian herbs.
