nothing trashy about what I see above

 

easy enough to make it trashy 

 

but that's not what I see above

[kayb]

Oh, we rather proudly use that descriptor for all sorts of slightly on the redneck/Middle America style foods. Particularly those made with prepared ingredients -- most anything with Jello or cream of --- soup, for example. Canned crescent rolls from the dairy case qualify!

 

I will note they didn't last long this morning.

Grits with sun-dried tomato and parmesan; Smoked sausage and Fried eggs.

[Anna N]

 

 Fried bread, bacon and a crispy olive oil fried egg. 

[robirdstx]

 

Leftover Quiche Lorraine, from yesterday’s lunch at La Madeleine, and Orange Juice.

[Anna N]

 

 Woke this morning ravenously hungry. Scrambled eggs, prosciutto, a shower of Parmesan and some toast. Now I think I will go back to sleep for a couple of hours. 

[HungryChris]

Home fries with peppers and onions, some badly scrambled scrapple and poached eggs on toast.

Robirdstx, I would be very happy with a slice of your Quiche for breakfast.

 

Moe's breakfast.

 

Giant Lima beans cooked in the Breville PC and then seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic, rosemary, basil, tomatoes and simmered in a little chicken broth served 

with grilled Italian sausage. 

[HungryChris]

The prosciutto panino and marinated mushrooms with pickled onions makes toasties with a flavor combination pretty hard to beat, but the crispy scrapple and fresh salsa makes one hell of a run at it.

Pretty hearty breakfast. Sadly, I've only had scrapple a few times during very rare trips to the Northeast. I'd go a little out of the way for it. Not a thousand miles though.

HC's taste for scrapple in the morning ("Smells like...victory...") has brought equally enthusiastic supporters and detractors out of the woodwork in the past. 

 

I haven't had the pleasure myself, scrapple not being readily available in Atlantic Canada, but I'm partial to fried slices of leftover haggis so I suspect I'd enjoy it.

 Havarti and mushrooms on toasted ciabatta.

Yesterday's breakfast.

Up early so I put a 6 lb bone in ham in the oven.

 

Used the Breville PC to make my potato gratin. Finished it off under the broiler to brown.

 Very interesting. I looked up a couple of recipes and I’m tempted to give it a try as soon as I find something suitable potatoes.

Anna, I only use Russet potatoes.  It is my preferred potato for the gratin, mashed, fried, roasted, baked, etc.....

 

Moe's breakfast today - Navy bean and Ham soup.

 

Soaked the beans over night.   Used the ham bone and cooked the soup in the Breville PC.

I’m not usually a weekday breakfast person, but I woke up hungry this morning:

Disappointed with that green ring on my yolk!  I steamed these like I always do – never gotten green yolks with that method before. 

[Anna N]

 

Pan-toasted ciabatta with lightly sauteed mortadella.  The latter at the suggestion of @rotuts  

[HungryChris]

Crispy scrapple with fresh salsa and tomato bruschetta with a few wisps of prosciutto di Parma, thanks to a recent visit to whole paycheck.

Cappuccino and Scones. 

 

My idea of breakfast. 

[lindag]

Breakfast this morning is sliced fruitcake, toasted and lightly buttered, as suggested by the maker.

Maybe it doesn't look like much but it's quite filling and it tasted wonderful.

I thought I recognized that tin! I have the same one, given to me by a neighbor over ten years ago. When I received it, it was filled with my neighbor’s homemade brownies, as a Christmas gift. I have used it to hold the paper filters for my coffee maker ever since.

 

 

[blue_dolphin]

@lindag - that tin brings back memories for me, too.  I had a Uncle who sent one of these to us for Christmas every year so I have a collection of those tins out in the garage somewhere!

 

Today's breakfast - scrambled eggs with some leftover green bean mushroom tart on the side.

Over in the Thanksgiving Sides topic, @Shelby mentioned this Green Bean Mushroom Tart with Blue Cheese and Crispy Shallots.  I made a half-sized tester yesterday.  The crispy shallots got a bit too brown during the re-heat but otherwise, very nice!

The Collins St Bakery did themselves some great PR with those tins. I have them in two sizes. I've never been in Texas and no one from Texas has ever sent me a fruitcake. I use mine all the time. I think I must have picked them up at a flea market or Goodwill a million years ago; mine are not shiny and don't say "deluxe." You can order the fruitcake from Amazon and the tin come with. The entire country must be lousy with 'em.
