I already have a bread upma recipe in my blog..They are quick bread upma which can be made in minutes..This verison is lot more healthier since there is lots of vegetables going in..It is great for kids to put in lunch box..

Try to add lots of vegetables in this if you are making it for kids..If your kid hates any veggies, sneak them in..they are never going to find out..
You can add some tomato ketchup too which gives a nice taste..This make a pretty filling meal, it can be served for breakfast or lunch or any time of the day..

I hope you love it and let me know what you think..

Ingredients:

Bread – 15 slices
Onion-1 chopped finely
Tomatoes – 3 chopped finely
Carrot – 1 large grated
Beans – 10 chopped finely
Potatoes – 1 large boiled and mashed
Mustard Seeds / Kaduku-1 tsp
Fennel Seeds / Saunf / Sombu -1 tsp
Coriander Powder / Malli Podi / Thaniya Podi -1 tblspn
Chilli Powder -1 tsp
Turmeric Powder / Manjal podi -1 tsp
Garam Masala Powder -2  tsp
Salt to taste
Oil-2 tblspn
Coriander Leaves / Cilantro for garnishing

Method:

First take the bread slices and dip them in water not more than 5 seconds. Squeeze out all the water and just scramble them with your hands.  Set this aside till use.

Chop  all your vegetables. Boil the potatoes and mash them. Set this aside till use.

Heat oil in a large sauté pan. Add in fennel seeds and mustard seeds.

    This reminds me of stuffing, but it has some delicious differences. Most of the spices you used is not found in traditional stuffing and the addition of the veggies turns it into a more heartier dish. It does look tasty and toasty in your pictures-yum!

    This looks delicious – it almost reminds me of a very spicy American "stuffing" like you would put inside a turkey at Thanksgiving…and I LOVE stuffing!

    Upma is new to me but it does seem as if it is a gorgeously-spiced, vegetable packed stuffing – something my children would have loved. I remember those lunch box days and the chore of finding healthy options. While it's still hard – it's easier than it used to be – kudos to your recipe!

    Hi Aarthi,
    Thanks for sharing this recipe. I've been craving bread upma and tried your version. It turned out really well although I would go a little easy on the masala next time. But it was a great wknd breakfast idea.

    Many fruits and vegetables, including spinach, broccoli and avocadoes, are also good sources of vitamin E, another excellent antioxidant.
