Char's Simplest Bread Upma Breakfast/Snack
"I found a recipe for Bread Upma in the latest issue of the Weekend magazine. However, I modified it and made it this way for breakfast this morning. My mom and me simply loved it. This was so easy to put together and was ready in no time. What I adore about this recipe is that all the ingredients that are called for in this recipe are present in every kitchen! I have decided to treat my dad to this awesome easy and tasty breakfast when he returns home next weekend from India. I am sure he will love it as much as mom and me did. This is a good snack for college students or those who got to rush for work early in the morning. I am dedicating this to My Special Someone, Sai, Who I Love So Much because he is always in a hurry to log off when we chat, when the clock strikes 8:30am for him(4:30pm for me) as he got to rush to college! LOL;)"
