Shakshuka with toasted focaccia. Tomato (with skin), orange pepper, red onion, green chili and finished with chives, parsley and chive flowers.

 

I would love your breakfast.  And I never peel tomatoes.  I like the skin.

I made Korean Fried Chicken for Moe's breakfast this morning.

Made Moe Migas for breakfast.

Matt made corn tortillas yesterday and saved a couple for breakfast.

Carrots on couscous

 

aka Couscous with Sesame-Roasted Carrots + Feta from Nik Sharma's Flavor Equation or here online.

OK, crab-man, that looks amazing but I can only unambiguously identify the green beans 🙃.  What is this beautiful dish?

Firstly, thank you!

 

Poached green beans in water until done and then removed. Sliced and sauteed chicken andouille sausages and then removed. Sauteed onions until reduced, and then added chopped garlic, serrano chilies, and fermented black beans. Cumin, black pepper, and garam masala for spices. Cooked down a small can of Hatch chilies 'cuz they needed using up. Finished with cilantro and the last of the feta cheese.

 

Needless to say, this was improvised. 🙄

I was entranced and curious too. Most of my dishes are improvised and the ingredient list born of availability or need to use.

Buckwheat crêpes with cherry tomato conserva and ricotta from Grist. 

My buckwheat flour is stone ground from a local mill but not as gray-looking as others.  I'm OK with that as gray crêpes aren't all that appealing! 

After filling and folding, these go back into the pan to get a crispy bottom so the ricotta is all warm and melty.

Breakfast this morning was a mug of Caldo Verde which might belong just as well in the unexpected food gifts thread.

My initial guess was chicken hearts based on 'Hearty and ....' intro.

Simple breakfast after a big feed yesterday.

Banana bread with peanut butter and blueberries with yogurt.

 

[blue_dolphin]

I had something else in mind but got hangry and warmed up leftover Tomato, Zucchini + Chickpea Stew w/Mint Almond Relish from Grist.

 

[blue_dolphin]

Buckwheat crêpes with goat cheese, shaved Brussels sprouts + hazelnut rig from Grist

After filling and folding, the crêpes go back into the pan to warm the cheese and crisp the bottoms.  The hazelnut "rig" is one of the simple toppings that abound in this book:  toasted hazelnuts, tart dried cherries, sherry vinegar and olive oil.

Oh yum (which is what I usually say to your breakfasts!).

[blue_dolphin]

Roasted Broccoli and Crispy Chickpeas with Sichuan Dukkah from Hetty McKinnon's Tenderheart...

... with a scrambled duck egg and cherry tomatoes

[C. sapidus]

Green beans, leftover pulled pork, and eggs. Seasoned with browned onion, garlic, Serrano chilies, cayenne, cumin, black pepper, Mexican oregano, and a little fish sauce.

 

[Senior Sea Kayaker]

Breakfast sandwich of homemade roasted tomato sausage, egg and pepper jack on a toasted brioche bun.

It could have used some lettuce but I didn't feel like going out to pick some and feed the blackflies.

Tomatoes and cherries balanced out the fatty sandwich.

 

[OlyveOyl]

A slice of sour cherry/apricot tart with a dollop of sour cream, Rainier cherries on the side.  The Rainers didn’t have a lot of taste going for them, I’ll probably use them for a pie , heat and sugar “improves” mediocre fruit….sometimes!

[Ann_T]

I still had the other half of the pasty I made Tuesday for the blueberry galette.

Used it this morning to bake a quiche. 

Bacon, Tomato, two kinds of cheddar and chives.

 

Moe had it for breakfast and I'm thinking of taking a slice for lunch. 

[blue_dolphin]

Toasted Cheddar and chili jam sandwich with a beet and orange salad with pecans and feta on arugula

[C. sapidus]

Last of the green beans with eggs, onion, Serrano chilies, fermented black beans, garlic, chilie jam, and feta cheese.

 

[blue_dolphin]

@C. sapidus has been making great breakfasts with green beans.  Me?  I'm still on a buckwheat crêpe roll.... or fold?  🙃

This is my third of the five variations offered in Grist and the only sweet one. They're filled with mascarpone that's been whipped with a splash of cream and a little honey (I used buckwheat honey to stay with the theme), warmed gently in the oven and topped with fresh berries.  I added the lemon zest to garnish.

Since I had the crêpes stashed in the freezer, this treat was both easy and delicious.

I made Korean fried chicken for the first time last week.

Moe really liked it so I made it again today using chicken breasts instead of legs.

Moe had it for breakfast and I'm taking it for lunch.

First figs of the year spotted at the farmers market so ricotta and figs on toast with ras al hanout walnuts
