Breakfast....what do YOU have???

**jackie j** · 22-10-2010, 07:56 AM

Usually toast and homemade jam, weekends croissants, but then on saturdays that could be afternoon tea for me by the time I get up after working all night. Fancy something different this morning, I have weetabix and porridge in the cupboard so might have that.

I generally have whatever I make the kids, usually porridge with honey or toast with homemade peanut butter of mums made jam!

On hubbys days off we sometimes have egg on toast.

But I loved some of the simple idea HFW shwed so will aim to make much more of an effort!

yum yum !

Oaty cereal usually, no milk (granola). I'll be on porridge any day now, or make some of Hugh's Breakfast Bars

At weekends I fancy toast with butter & marmite, but it doesn't keep me full up like oats do.

**Brengirl** · 22-10-2010, 08:10 AM

Absolutely zilch. I have no appetite whatsoever in the morning.

**Bren In Pots** · 22-10-2010, 08:10 AM

Saturday its a bacon sarnie rest of the weeks its either porridge, muesli with home made yoghurt, toast with either Marmite or Peanut butter.

There's a nice pancake recipe on here cheap-family-recipes that I've made a few times just for a change.

Usually, two or three mugs of tea ('Yorkshire' Tea by Taylor's of Harrogate, the loose-leaf version, made in a two-pint pot using four rounded teaspoonfuls, which is pretty darn strong, because 'Yorkshire' is a strong blend in the first place, and brwed for a full five minutes by the timer), and three slices of toast made from home-made, wholemeal bread, with honey or marmalade. On Fridays, and sometimes Saturdays, being the only days I usually have cash on me, I go downtown and have a full English in one of the Cafes there: typically, as today, Cumberland sausage, bacon, two poached eggs, baked beans, toast (made from mass-produced white pap, unfortunately), and tea (weaker than my home-made, but not bad). (No, I'm not unemployed, but I start work at 1:15 p.m.)

ooh I love love love breakfast

Weekdays I alternate between:
Porridge (jumbo oats) which I soak overnight with skimmed milk, sultanas and cinnamon
Two boiled eggs and ryvita with real butter

Weekends:
Saturday I cook -
Eggy Bread and bacon or
Scrambled egg and smoked salmon or
Omlette with spinach or
Eggs benedict

Sunday Snowdrop cooks:
Full fry up

...fresh ground coffee beans in ALL cases

Hhmmm, our breakfasts (both weekdays and weekends) are usually one of the following:

Mexican scrambled eggs
A combination of sausage, bacon or egg (either poached, scrambled or fried)
Pain au chocolate

Normal bread, and an excess of milk makes me rather poorly, so no cereals or toast. I can just about manage a croissant or pain au chocolat, and occasionally a toasted muffin maybe once a week.

Tea is fairtrade caffeine free with 1 sugar and a dribble of milk

A very strong cup of tea! I'm not good at mornings and usually don't have time to eat much

My first-thing dog-walk always comes past the allotment though so I tend to graze on whatever fruit is ready, at about 10-ish. At the moment it's apples and they're gorgeous straight off the tree

When I get home I have a couple of slices of toast (wholemeal) with home-made jam, or a bowl of dry crunchy-nut cereal to nibble while I work. Although I've gone off the cereal a bit since I saw Jimmy-thingy making it in his big farm programme...

**FionaH** · 22-10-2010, 09:13 AM

Coffee and on work days I have a nana as well. Normally ready to eat about 10

**Flummery** · 22-10-2010, 09:23 AM

Different every day. Usually porridge or a dippy egg and home-made bread toast. Sometimes toast and jam. Weekend - egg, bacon, hash browns, beans, black pudding and toast - but it counts as 2 meals then! Having a big lunch with some friends today so it's just been yoghurt.

**Suky** · 22-10-2010, 09:26 AM

Jordans tropical muesli, banana, greek 0% yogurt and local honey pretty well every day. Full English sometimes to keep hubby company at the weekend.
Can't go without brekkie though.

**lindyloo** · 22-10-2010, 09:32 AM

large trough of coffee and either cheese on toast, or, in winter, a bowl of porridge oats. if i ever have leftover pizza, then i love cold pizza for breakfast too! alternatively, every so often, i have a cheeze omelette

**arpoet** · 22-10-2010, 09:35 AM

Usually its either porridge or muesli made with goats milk or when i been baking, like i did yesterday, home made bread toated with real butter. Some days i have french fried (eggy) bread, or as a special treat fried eggs and my home made oatcakes to dip into the runny yolks....
