Let's admit it. We all love breakfasts a little more, especially if we have the leisure of time to truly sit and indulge. But seldom do we get a chance to do that through the week. Breakfasts are often dubbed as the most important meal of the day, and yet, a lot of us tend to skip it for varied reasons. Breakfast is important to kick-start your metabolism and energy. If you skip breakfast, your brain does not get enough fuel to start the day; you could feel lethargic in the first half and probably grab a bite of anything that comes your way, which in turn could induce weight gain. Therefore, it is a good idea to stuff yourself with all things wholesome and satiating before stepping out. For instance, this paneer toasty with salsa. It will not only help you start your day on a flavourful note, but also serve as a good dose of protein.
Paneer is an excellent source of protein, which helps fill you up. If you are full, you would not inch towards anything fried and fattening, thus minimising chances of weight gain. It is also said that protein helps check cravings and regulate hunger hormone ghrelin.
