Re: Kids favorite breakfast cereal
How much oil/butter are you using to fry the eggs? I highly doubt the eggs are causing weight gain, it must the added fat in the paratha or bread if you butter it. The egg is much healthier for her as compared to the sugary cereal. If you are concerned about her weight, maybe get her to be more physically active?

Re: Kids favorite breakfast cereal
I Think what your daughter wants is a filling breakfast and something not sweet. I am the same. Cereals dont fill me, theyre merely a snack for me. And sweet stuff for a meal is more of dessert. But if you are still looking for cereals she'll enjoy, get COCO PUFFS, theyre everyones favorite, or cinamon toast. Or try Rice Krispies, I usually put slices of bananas in my rice krispies iinstead of sugar, and it tastes amazing. Also you can give her a healthy vegetable Omlete at times, or make her crepes,or Scrambled eggs. If non of that, then how about just left over salan with a roti?

^ That's a lot of unnecessary sugar and preservatives and sugars you guys are recommending.
I don't think it's the diet you need to worry about. She's eating healthy, let her continue to eat healthy. I would just modify the parathas. The cereal and eggs are not the issue.
Re: Kids favorite breakfast cereal
my elder one loved 'choori' made out of paratha a lot but I used to give that to him twice a week and i used honey instead of sugar and sometimes I used to add ground almonds/nuts in it
