Breakfast! 2015

rotuts · November 23, 2015

nice

Ill keep this in mind

esp. the cranberry sauce

however

the water poached egg has a thin outer white deliciousness that can't be beet for this

works fine w home made crusty breads too !

Ann_T · November 23, 2015

Rotuts, my husband Moe would agree with you. He loves water poached eggs. An easy breakfast to make.

Poached eggs are not my favourite unless cooked hard and coated in Hollandaise. BUT, I might like them with leftover stuffing. What a great idea.

rotuts · November 23, 2015

Ooooooooooo

so many new ideas !

back way back when, i did some eggs in the CSB for the yolks just for the yolks !

so ...................

Looks good. What all do you put in it?

Wholegrain rolled oats, toasted with honey, olive oil and a touch of cinnamon. Then it’s just a matter of tossing in what ever I feel like. That one was raisins, dried apricots, coconut threads, roasted almonds, hazelnuts, brazil nuts and macadamias, pumpkin seeds and a couple of handfuls of cornflakes. I’ve done one with dried apple and lots of cinnamon which was pretty epic.

I like to whizz it up in a food processor quickly to chop it all up nice and fine and make sure all the fruit and nuts are distributed. Otherwise my kids steal most of the fruit and nuts and I’m left with oats for breakfast.

Breakfast started out with a healthy glass of Hibiscus Tea and the daily paper. (Actually, it's yesterday's.)

Having got all that healthiness over and done with a nice piece of baguette stuffed full of crisp fried bacon. And a glance at the food pages while thinking about lunch.

Liuzhou, beautiful lean bacon.

Hard boiled eggs (actually they were steamed) with fried potatoes, onions and bacon.

blue_dolphin · November 25, 2015

liuzhou - I like seeing your local paper along with that nice breakfast and love your new avatar!

Ann_T - The food you prepare and the photographs you make are equally gorgeous to look at. Your homemade, crusty breads in particular make me want to reach through the screen and steal a bite!

I used the leftover cilantro lime sweet potatoes from yesterday's lunch and some roasted corn kernels from the freezer to make some little fritters for breakfast.

Served with a little peach-jalapeño jam and a scoop of ricotta on the right and a taste of lime-ginger marmalade on the left.

Would have been good with some guacamole and sour cream, too, but I didn't have any!

Kim Shook · November 25, 2015

Ann T. – I showed Mr. Kim your baguette and he said, “Why can’t WE get bread like that?” And then he looked at me MEANINGFULLY.

rotuts – I agree with Kay. Try making stuffing waffles. They are magical. (Especially done with oyster stuffing).

Dutch baby folded around peach butter and ricotta cheese. Would have been better with a stronger-flavored cheese, and I added a tablespoon of sugar to the batter that it didn't need. Still good.

With a large cup of French press coffee, this went a long way to offset the third grey, rainy day in a row.

one of the great joys of After Thanksgiving is the left-over stuffing you can use for breakfast :

microwaved stuffing with two eggs. this is a bit better w water poached eggs, but pan fried are also nice and much easier.

No money shot. I like the yolks whole dans le Mouth.

this stuffing was actually a second tray I made :

I keep forgetting that you can make stuffing any time w/o a bird via a tray. this tray just fits in the BVXL it has a couple of

generic bacon stips on top as i had some left over after 'roasting' the second breast wrapped in bacon in the CSB

Steam makes ones life much easier

just figure out a source of 'stock' I use minors low salt turkey. they sell it but it comes from a different vendor.

don't forget to fully season the stock I use Bell's ( a fair amount )

and if you add fruit ( in this case apples ) those apples will come out on th crunchy side compared to In the Bird

unless you remember to microwave the chopped apples just before you add them to the Mix. its up to you.

these apples were OK, would have been a bit nicer and more traditional micro'd a bit first. I forgot.

there are also dried cranberries, toasted pecans, Jones sausage ( tube ) and stock made out of the bird.

its Pepperidge Farm corn-bread stuffing as a starting point.

soon Ill post more about the two turkey breasts I 'roasted ' i.e. FancyBaked.

Brie, apples, arugula, and dijon mustard on a baguette. Not really breakfast food but it is what I felt like eating.

blue_dolphin · December 1, 2015

That baguette sandwich looks very tasty, Liamsaunt!

Ham, egg and cheese breakfast sandwich:

The cheese is the Trappist Vieux Chimay from Belgium that was TJ's spotlight cheese last month - very melty-making, Black Forest ham, farmers' market egg on an onion poppy seed ciabatta roll from the day-old shelf at Walmart :rolleyes: !

Thanksgiving Day breakfast that Jessica made:

Bacon, egg and cheese breakfast egg boat. Fabulous! This is a wonderful brunch/breakfast dish. We munched on this while watching the parade AND the dog show – we couldn’t stop.

liamsaunt · December 5, 2015

Kim Shook, that looks really good. Nice idea for a big gathering.

Poached eggs on toast with maldon salt

Kim Shook · December 5, 2015

Jessica’s breakfast the other day:

Fried egg and baked beans and toast. I’ve taught her well. :biggrin:

Repost:

This was an accident. It is a failed bacon and spinach omelette. But don't tell anyone! (I haven't had a failed omelette in decades.)

I call it scrambled eggs with bacon and spinach and it tasted just fine.

Ann_T · December 12, 2015

Liuzhou, doesn't look like an accident to me. I would be very happy with your breakfast.

Couple recent breakfasts I made for Moe.

Lox, eggs, and onions with black bread and tomatoes.

Today's breakfast, delivered by TWO of my recent eG-facilated investments: Leftover pumpkin pancakes, frozen and reheated in the Cuisi-steam oven and the star of the show (unfortunately, in the back and out of focus in my photo) is the warm, chunky applesauce with raisins made in the Instant-Pot this morning. A scoop of ricotta on the side and just a little drizzle of maple syrup.

IMG_2291.jpg.be790be217bdda7946f09ce158d

10 min on steam-bake at 300 deg F made the leftovers almost as good as new!

blue_dolphin · December 16, 2015

Hmmm. Similar appearance to yesterday. A warm dish of that chunky applesauce and some more ricotta - this time made in the Instant-Pot and served on toast with walnuts and a drizzle of maple syrup.

You made the ricotta in the IP?

Yep. Just posted about it over in the IP topic. The recipe just uses the boil function of the yogurt program to heat up the milk. No actual pressure cooking involved. But easy as pie....easier, actually!
