Millet Upma

Healthy Breakfast Idea: Incorporating Millet Upma into Your Daily Meal

The morning can often be a rush; deciding on the outfit, pondering the day's plans, and thinking about a quick breakfast before heading out the door. But breakfast can be more than just something to fill your hunger. Breakfast can also energise, balance, and establish the frame for whatever is next. If you are looking for a quick, good-for-you, and traditional breakfast, Millet Upma may be just the choice for you.

Be it freshly prepared at home or using our Ready-to-Eat Millet Upma, every single bite gives you a balance of nourishment and flavour to see you through the day.

Where Flavour Meets Health 

At Sabala Millets, we feel that healthy food doesn’t mean sacrificing taste. Our Millet Upma Mix offers the best of both realms: the comforting, familiar flavour profile of South Indian upma, and the incredible nutrition found in ancient grains.

With a lovely blend of nourishing grains, including foxtail millet, barnyard millet, and little millet, we’ve worked to keep your morning both delicious and smart.

What you will experience is a warm aromatic bowl of upma that feels familiar and warm, yet extraordinarily light, enormous in much-needed fibre, iron, and minerals. Your classic breakfast is just better suited to support today’s lifestyle.

Convenient and Time Saving

Mornings can be a busy time. There are a number of things that need to happen, from getting ready for the day to packing lunches and even planning for your day. Cooking from scratch sometimes seems impossible. That is exactly why we created Millet Upma Ready to Eat.

With Sabala Millets’ products, you will never need to sacrifice your health for your busy lifestyle. Our upma mix is ready in minutes! Simply add water, mix, and serve! And on the busy mornings, you do not even want to measure and mix, just heat the Ready to Eat Millet Upma and it's ready to go!

It is your traditional breakfast, made simple for today’s lifestyle.

Each serving of Millet Upma by us has clean, natural ingredients, no preservatives, no artificial colours, and no compromises on taste!

Incorporating Millet Upma into Your Routine

1. Take it easy

Simply swap out your semolina upma for  Sabala Millets' Multi-Millet Upma Mix. There's no transition, you'll feel the same feel-good texture with extra flavour and nutrition always!

Make it the traditional way, where you sauté onions, mustard seeds, curry leaves, and some vegetables in oil before adding the millet mix, or if time is short, use the ready-mix directions to get breakfast ready in under 10 minutes!

2. Incorporate a Variation Every Day 

To change things up, variations can be created. Here are a few: 

  • Add colourful vegetables (although spinach, kale or other greens would detract from the colour). 

  • Add roasted peanuts or cashews to give it some crunch. 

  • Add paneer, tofu or boiled lentils to switch it up a bit and for some added protein. 

  • Add on a garnish: lemon juice, coriander, or grated coconut.

Each variation alters the flavour profile a bit. This way, your Millet Upma doesn't feel redundant, even though it's your daily breakfast.

3. Plan Smart for the Week

Healthy cooking doesn't have to mean extra work. You can cook a large batch of Millet Upma and store it in the refrigerator. You can reheat it when you feel hungry. Just before you heat it, sprinkle a little water on top, and it will taste as good as fresh.

You can even pre-portion it into meal containers for a quick breakfast or lunchbox choice. Meal prepping with Sabala Millets is simpler than ever, and healthier too!

Caloric Considerations for Millet Upma and Portion Management

  • If you are health-conscious and think about calories, Millet Upma fits well into most diets!

  • On consuming a moderate portion (150-200g), you are eating between 200 and 300 calories, largely. 

  • The precise caloric amount depends on the vegetables you choose, if you add any oil or ghee, and if you decide to add any toppings.

  • It is a good combination of carbohydrates, proteins, and good fats, a balanced meal option for breakfast or as a light lunch. 

The best use of this is in the morning for breakfast or as a light lunch, as those who typically consume millet products satiate hunger longer, as it is a robust fibre and protein food source. This can help reduce unnecessary snacking.
