Thank you!

 

Yes, eggs. I use "breakfast tacos" as shorthand for a mix of eggs and other stuff.

[Senior Sea Kayaker]

Egg with green onion and cilantro, sausage, aged cheddar, lettuce and zucchini flowers on a toasted croissant. Tomato salad with herbs on the side.

 

[lindag]

Anticipation of season's the first snowfall got me up early this morning.

A good day to make sourdough biscuits.

[Senior Sea Kayaker]

Breakfast wrap: eggs scrambled with chorizo, green onion, Thai chilis, Thai basil and cilantro with aged cheddar and lettuce. I used 3 chilis so it was a tad hot.

 

[Senior Sea Kayaker]

Mushroom and blue cheese omelet with toasted naan and an orange.

Kimchi fried rice with gochujang, onion, and green chile.

I made a focaccia on Sunday to use in sandwiches this week. Half @ElainaA 's roasted tomatoes and half caramelized onion 'divets'.

Pan fried sole filet, egg, green onion, cilantro and lettuce on toasted focaccia.

 

[Senior Sea Kayaker]

Quick to make and sloppy to eat early breakfast. Double egg with tomato, lettuce, green onion, cilantro and sriracha on a toasted soft bun.

 

[OlyveOyl]

Egg bites , instant pot style.  These cook on steam for 00:00.  Cheese, herbs, sour cream + a neighbor’s gift of eggs from her chickens. Hadn’t made these in a. very long time, forgot how good they are.

[blue_dolphin]

I haven't bothered to take a photo in ages but here's one from this morning.  Jammy Egg and Scallion Sandwich from Andy Baraghani's The Cook You Want To Be. 

Kind of a deconstructed egg salad sandwich and I made an open-faced version on toasted sourdough. The scallion "sauce" is just sliced scallions, toasted sesame seeds, rice vinegar and soy sauce with a pinch of salt & pepper.  The bread is spread with a mix of mayo and Dijon mustard. 

[heidih]

[rotuts]

These are out of the fridge and into boiling water for 7 min, then into ice water.  My go-to is 6.5 min but those yolks are a little too runny to slice so I bumped it up a little. Probably could have gone 7.5 or 8 min to get neater slices. 

[OlyveOyl]

@rotuts, two eggs, about 3 rounded tablespoons sour cream, two pieces, 2x3 by 1/4” of Gouda/Parmesan.  In addition, two yellow teardrop tomatoes, s/p and chervil.  Fridge temp eggs and cheese, blitzed all with an immersion blender. Water was preheated in IP, * 4 containers were set on a trivet, low pressure, 00:00,steam,  immediate release, 3 qt. IP. Eggs have a “custardy” consistency. Containers were filled about halfway, they are 1 1/2” deep by about 3+ inches. Volume measurement is a half cup. They are used for eggs in aspic as well. Interior temperature of the cooked eggs was 163*, I shoot for 160*.

Basted/steamed eggs with herbs (green onion, cilantro and Thai basil) and sriracha with blistered tomatoes.

Toasted focaccia for the requisite yolk dipping.

 

[Ann_T]

Moe's breakfast.

Egg salad sandwich on homemade bread. 

[BeeZee]

Toasted TJ's sandwich thin (ate the other half already). Mini avocado wasn't quite ripe, so I put a very thin smear of cream cheese  to hold it onto the surface better. Sprinkled generously with a salt-free seasoning that is pepper/lemon/garlic.

Made Moe a toasted BLT for breakfast this morning.

On homemade bread, with one of the last tomatoes from our garden,  and,  keeping with a lower sodium diet,

I found sodium reduced bacon at Costco

that is surprising really good. Regular bacon has 400mg of sodium in 2 strips and the reduced is only 180mg in 2 strips.

[rotuts]

@Ann_T 

 

with regard to reducing sodium in cured porky product :

 

consider a soak in ice water , then pat dry .   ice because you ant to keep the fat firm .

 

time in the ice bath depends on thickness , as its the surface area // mass that get you what you want.

 

pat dry then cook.    Ive done this w high end mail order bacon and good quality commercial.

 

mail order is more expensive , but had much more flavor so the result on the plate after the

 

ice bath might matter.

Thanks @rotuts, I have been very tempted to buy a bone in ham and soak it in an effort to reduce the salt.  I've had a craving

for a bone in ham since our Thanksgiving.
