Breakfast 2019

[Ann_T]

Plans were to have Greek for dinner. but decided to make it for breakfast instead.

Greek lamb shanks, potatoes, green beans and rice.  

Moe had it for breakfast and I'm taking the same to work for lunch.

I love the look, shape, of these.   

 

Just a variant wonton wrapping style especially designed for the extremely lazy - i.e. me.

[Margaret Pilgrim]

kindred souls.   I am definitely a variant cook.

[Ann_T]

Moe's breakfast.

 

Toad in a hole with English Bangers.

Leftover chicken sage gravy.

[Duvel]

Scrambled eggs with north sea shrimp, served with a rye roll. By now, the whole family is converted ...

 

[shain]

Made a batch of savory zucchini and carrot bran muffins, with poppy seeds and a hint of cinnamon. Served with fresh cheeses and a vegetable salad.

@Ann_T  looks like you made individual toad in the hole?  If so, brilliant.  One banger per pud?

@Okanagancook, yes individual Yorkshires.  I browned the sausages first.  Heated the muffin tins with oil until smoking.  Cut the sausages in half and stood them up in the cups and poured

the batter around them.  

I can't take credit for the idea.  Saw pictures for  various options on google images.

I love toad in the hole so this is perfect for the two of us.  I think they would reheat nicely in the CSO on steam-bake.  Thanks.

 

On another tangent.....There was some mention about Red Star yeast.  What kind of yeast do you use?

I'm pretty sure it is Red Star that I use.   I buy it at Costco and empty the package into a mason jar and keep it in the freezer, so I don't have the

package to check.  Next time I'm in Costco, I'll check to confirm.

It's Red Star at Costco, at least on this coast. I keep mine in the package and have a clip that seals it between batches of bread.

Exactly.   I bought a pound package at Costco and keep it, jarred, in the freezer.    Since I use it in 1/4 teaspoon quantities, I have listed it in my will.

More seriously, Red Star is a ubiquitous brand in NorCal.   

[Okanagancook]

Ok, thank you everyone.  I will get some.

duck eggs scrambled with a little sour cream and an Australian smoked cheddar. Appearance-wise it could’ve used a little colour. Taste-wise it needed nothing.

Wow, indeed! Love your semi-legal scales.

Only good for illegal sales....

[liuzhou]

Rice noodles in broth with shrimp, garlic, chili, ginger, white pepper, mustard greens and century egg. Shrimp and century egg is sometimes used in congee, but I decided to combine them with noodles. It worked for me.

@liuzhou,  I love your breakfasts.  

 

Baked caramelized onion and poppy seed sourdough bread last night.  

 

Lobbed off a small piece of dough from one of the baguettes that was too long for the stone in the CSO and made a bun. 

 

 

Made Moe a burger with homemade potato chips for breakfast. 

[Margaret Pilgrim]

@Ann_T Fabulous looking chips!   Nothing better than these.

[liuzhou]

Buttery scrambled (chicken) eggs with flying fish roe and chives. On flatbread.

Stove top frittata with tomatoes, red peppers, ham.

[chefmd]

Greek yogurt with roasted apples and walnuts.

[Ann_T]

Pulled a baguette out of the freezer this morning. Just as good now as when it was first baked.

 

Toasted for Moe's breakfast.

[Kim Shook]

This morning:

Seedless rye (🙁), egg, and the last of the banana bread from Sunday.

[Ann_T]

Was thinking of making Chicken Stew with Southern Style dumplings for dinner tonight.

 

And then realized that I still had hours before leaving for work so I could make it for Moe's breakfast and take the same for lunch.

See there is an advantage to being an earlier riser. And by earlier riser I mean 3:00 AM. Although I don't start cooking until Moe wakes up which is usually not much later.

[weinoo]

 

Ham (Jambon!) and egg fried rice, with snow peas, tomatoes and avocado.
