Breakfast! 2016 (Part 2)

[HungryChris]

We opted for espresso and a few amaretti this morning and planned a day trip to Voltaire.

I saved a few of the mushrooms from last night's mushroom stroganoff for breakfast this morning.  I reheated them, served them over some toast and dotted on the last of the blue cheese.

Scrambled eggs with some Chorizo.

 I placed a grocery order very early this morning for delivery tomorrow morning. Among other things this means sorting out whatever is left in the fridge especially in the crisper drawers. I found a very sorry looking partial head of iceberg lettuce (I am always amazed at its shelf life but even it eventually succumbs) and some equally sorry looking scallions. I was about to bin them when I recalled being intrigued by a recipe for stir fried iceberg lettuce and so....

 

 Thanks to Grace Young for the lettuce idea but the egg is mine... all mine.

The plan was a simple breakfast of sausages and scrambled eggs but as the morning segued into the afternoon...

That looks good!  Is the bread a sweet bread?

[scubadoo97]

Never had the bread, but just the thought of brazil nut breads makes me say "I want that"!

Rummaging in the fridge turned up a couple of hard boiled eggs and some hot dog buns in the freezer that are unlikely to see a hot dog anytime soon.   Inspired by @rotuts recent egg salad breakfasts, I did the same.

Egg salad with crisp bacon crumbles on a lightly toasted roll with some lovely backyard tomatoes from a friend:

I remembered this egg salad recipe that called out blue cheese as the "secret ingredient" so there's a just a bit of blue cheese in there, too.

The bread is lightly salty ElsieD

[suzilightning]

I woke up HUNGRY so, inspired by @Kerry Beal's recent visit to our beautiful state, it was toasted English muffin, well cooked egg and sautéed thin bologna slices instead of Taylor pork role as I didn't have any.

Accented lightly with some ketchup and mayo. 

[blue_dolphin]

Toasties!

Toasted ciabatta topped with sautéed zucchini, mushrooms and onion, farmers market tomato and grated Vella Golden Bear Dry Monterey Jack.

Sunday breakfast of champions; chao tom, Vietnamese sugarcane prawns.

 

You make a paste of the prawns, garlic, white pepper and egg white and then shape it around fresh sugarcane sticks and steam them briefly to set and then crisp them to brown in a pan. Eaten with banh hoi steamed rice noodle mats, little crispy spring rolls I made out of some of the prawn paste and the banh hoi, lettuce, mint, coriander, shallot oil and nuoc cham dipping sauce.

 

Good for what ails ye.

@rarerollingobject, I really want to come live with you. Will wash dishes and bake bread.

I am totally in awe of someone who can get up and put this together for breakfast?!!?  I can barely crawl into the kitchen to put my tea on.

[IowaDee]

If that's what is good for what ails me, I am so ready to be  "ailed."  Just amazing.

@rarerollingobject, you are a true genius.

Um, invite your good friend RRO to jump a plane to the GC and come help you eat them? 

 

But seriously, I'd do some combination of classic chilli/black pepper/white pepper. Maybe a few of each kind, if it's manageable. I've made this white pepper crab recipe before and it was sooooo delicious. I did have scallop sauce in my pantry, but if you don't, I don't think it'd suffer too much. A splash of fish sauce is a good substitute. http://themeatmen.sg/recipe-chili-and-white-pepper-butter-crab/

Other than that - at that scale? Roast em or get a clean kettle drum and boil.

Thank you so much, dinner is at 7 pm.

Breakfast this morning. Blood sausage with chips. I fully intended for there to be an egg, too. Probably poached. Perhaps fried. But guess what I forgot to pick up when shopping yesterday.

[Anna N]

 

 Leftovers from a family birthday celebration last evening. We ordered in some Chinese food and for breakfast this morning I had an egg roll, some fried rice and some dry fried beans with pork.
