You must think, how boring! Rice cakes for breakfast? Really? Well, yes, rice cakes are healthier when they're made of brown rice. Rice grain is a good source of carbohydrates and proteins. Whole brown rice has more nutrients like protein, lipids, minerals, and vitamins than refined white rice because they're stripped away during the refining process.
But most refined rice cakes might not be more than carbohydrates with little nutrition. Because they’re low in calories, they might seem healthy, which could make you want to eat more of them. Try to eat them in moderation, and add nutrients with healthy toppings.
