The editorial staff of Wday.ru has prepared a selection of delicious and varied lenten breakfasts.
Oatmeal with banana, honey and cinnamon

First, prepare the sauce – tomato salsa. We clean the tomatoes and grind them in a blender, add a little lemon juice, finely chopped garlic and onions. Then mix the cooked cooled rice with corn, beans and chopped greens.
And the last stage – we first put our filling in pita bread or on a flatbread, and then pour it with tomato salsa and wrap it.
We prepare the dough like on dumplings, only without adding eggs. Instead, you can pour in a few tablespoons of vegetable oil.
Put frozen cherries as a filling (one cherry on a dumpling), sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar.
We do it in reserve – put it in the freezer.
Pour the finished dumplings with cherries with honey or jam.
The filling can be made different, more satisfying. For example, with potatoes and mushrooms.
To do this, boil the potatoes, crush them. Fry mushrooms with onions and mix with potato mass. Season with salt and spices to taste.
