Your ribs and salad look great. I can't fathom rice and potatoes, although the lemon potatoes at a local place make my heart sing and my husband will happily eat both

 

I love rice and potatoes.  Both with Greek and  with Indian curries.

Early breakfast. Lightly fried previously cooked potatoes ( I mean a teaspoon of olive oil ) liverwurst and an egg. Toasted remains of yesterday’s baguette.

Potatoes are almost always eaten wuith rice in Chinese cuisine. They are seen as just another vegetable to be stir fried or added to hotpots.

 

The most common treatment is to sliver them along with carrot and often chilli, stir fry them and finish with white rice vinegar. In fact, most supermarket sell the potato and carrot pre-slivered.

I don’t always have a cooked breakfast, sometimes just toast with a spread and sometimes cereal like this below. A fairly ordinary muesli with fresh banana and cold milk.

I finally got around to making the hasseltots described by @blue_dolphin awhile back. With eggs scrambled with red Thai chilis, green onion tops and cilantro and sausage.

The potatoes were tasty and I would do them again (I think they would be a fun addition to a breakfast for young children).

After those two posts.....

My plebeian bfast of iced coffee (second of the day), gf tortilla, ham, onion, egg, swiss.

Of course decided I wanted breakfast after cleaning the stove. (And midway thru cleaning realized I was frying fish for dinner.  Should have had the second coffee earlier)

Eric Kim's gochujang buttered noodles from NYT Cooking with the addition of sugar snap peas:

I was wide awake around 1 AM and I really, really wanted to get up and make this but I managed to wait. The sun was barely detectable on a June gloomy morning but the noodles brightened my day nicely!

I may or may not be conducting my own Pad Thai cook-off here in the breakfast thread.  Today, I made Melissa Clark's recipe from Dinner Changing the Game. I used tofu instead of shrimp, reduced the noodles from 4 oz to 3 and upped the sugar snap pea from 2 oz to 3 so I had equal parts veg and noodle.
