Bread Upma
Just to share with you………..
During my childhood days I am very scared of the name “UPMA”. I hate upma’s like anything. When I started cooking I love UPMA’s because it is the simplest and quickest one to make. I know only wheat upma called “gouthuma rava” in tamil ,white upma and Idli upma ( made with left over idli’s). After coming to US I learnt this bread upma. My daughter loves bread and chease but if I buy one packet after finishing 4-5 slices than expiry date comes and I used to throw the bread packet. To solve this problem when I browsed I came to know about Bread Upma. Now I am buying wheat bread packets for making healthy wheat bread upma for breakfast.
