Breakfast! 2016 (Part 2)

[HungryChris]

Potato and cheese perogies with onion and sour cream. These were frozen. Fresh ones are hard to come by in these parts and it is only a matter of time before I try my hand at making them.

[HungryChris]

Poached eggs, leftover kielbasa and onions and toasted ciabatta.

egg, chicken sausage, and cheese on English muffin

Initially, I sautéed zucchini with onions for breakfast in a stoic effort to use every last one of them, but now I find myself buying zucchini in the Sunday farmer's market to fill in while I wait for the second string plants to come on line.

Baba Ghanoush  with some flour tortilla chips that I made in the CSO (really good---crisp on the outside, puffy in the middle).  My first time making Ghanoush (I think).  If I've made it before, I've blocked it out.  I like it!

Shelby looks like you've been making it all your life. Looks perfect to me

Home-made rye bread slices. One slathered with a "healthy" amount of butter and some radishes and finished with Maldon salt. And because I am spoiled beyond all reason the other is adorned with Ossau Iraty cheese.

Breakfast by candlelight. An electrical storm came through early this morning and knocked out the power in our portion of the neighborhood for 3 1/2 hours. We have an all electric kitchen so made a sandwich for breakfast - Peanut Butter and Miracle Whip on Whole Wheat - and washed it down with a diet coke.

 

[Shelby]

Now, that's a new combo to me.

Old combo from my childhood, but technically it should have been made with white Wonder bread! I've made it with mayo instead of the Miracle Whip before but the mayo doesn't have the same sweet taste as the Miracle Whip. Oh, and the peanut butter must be smooth, creamy Jif.

Was the eggplant from your garden? I really like your serving bowl, very pretty and rustic at the same time. Did you make it, by chance?

Yes I'm having a decent eggplant year.  I can finally branch out and make some things I've been wanting to try....especially since I have no tomatoes with which to make spag. sauce with (I love eggplant in that).

 

Thank you!  No, a potter in Colorado makes a lot of the pieces I use.  My mom buys them for me when she sees something she thinks I will like .

breakfast at work (per usual during the week) so no photo...whole wheat bagel with Whole Foods Greek hummus and sliced NJ garden tomato from my coworker. He left a bag of them on the table in our office kitchen so I snagged a nice ripe Roma specimen (the small slices fit nicely lined up along the bagel's borders!). I love when he starts rolling in with the garden surplus.

I love diet Dr. Pepper but hardly ever buy any. I'm sure the coffee is good too, as you have spoken about roasting your own beans.

 

Is it finally time to maybe turn the A/C on rotuts? I would be dying! 

[rotuts]

sub'd for coffee on an AM like this.

I thought it looked sort of bubbly !

 

It's been over 90 here during the day but the last 2 nights have been even cooler than usual.  Had my breakfast coffee HOT!

7 AM = 55

10 AM = 75

[Captain]

That looks So Good @Ashen   And just in the nick of time...  15 posts and no runny egg.

[Ashen]

Leftover couscous-grain mix, broccoli, diced pork roast and poached egg.

After reading in the Dinner thread about cooking corn on the cob in the microwave while still in the husk, I had to try it. 

 

I did have one issue, in that my corn was already partially husked, so I wrapped it in a damp paper towel and laid it husked side down to protect the exposed kernals. After cooking the corn for the three minutes, I cut the bare minimum off the end of the ear and the husk and silk just pealed right off. 

 

 

Microwave Corn On The Cob with butter, salt and pepper.
