For breakfast, Sri said, a person can eat wheat bread with orak-arik eggs or ceplok eggs, accompanied by tomatoes, cucumber, and lettuce, while drinking melon juice. However, if you don't have time to make orak-arik eggs or ceplok eggs, Sri recommends replacing the eggs with other sources of protein.
